TRANSIENT PARKING There is no transient parking available here, however, there is a great FBO, Luxivair on field. FBO Luxivair is the only FBO at KSBD. They have plenty of ramp space and provide full-service and self-service fuel Avgas. Take time to explore the luxurious FBO complete with Pilot’s Lounge, Flight Planning Room and a Theater. A Conference Room is available but be sure to ask the front desk before entering. You’ll find an automated espresso machine, soda dispenser, cold bottle water, snacks and fresh baked cookies. Make your way up to the patio for an amazing view of the field.

CREW CAR / RENTAL CARS Luxivair has crew cars available on a first come basis with a time limit. A car rental will be required for longer stays and Luxivair can help coordinate a car rental for your visit if required. Be sure to have to car insurance information handy if you plan on using the crew cars. FOOD There isn’t a café on field but there are plenty of delicious options close by. We loved Baja King Fish Tacos (even for non-seafood tacos). La Casa Restaurant is another highly rated option close by. Yaamav’a’ Resort and Casino is a 15 minute drive from the airport and another local’s favorite due to their seafood buffet. Norton AFB Museum is a small but jam packed museum. Full of photos, artifacts, relics and memorabilia from the Norton AFB days but the highlight were the docents. These volunteers all served at Norton and have LOTS of interesting stories to tell. They aren’t shy about sharing their experiences and made for a fantastic time. We HIGHLY recommend this small museum. Hours are limited so arrive with time. Open Thursdays and Saturdays 10am-2pm. If you love casinos Yaamava’ is within 15 minutes of the airport. With over 7,400 slot machines and 150+ table games it’s no wonder this resort is popular. It also has a 17 story hotel with panoramic views of the mountains and an elevated pool with cabanas. It even has a 3,000 seat venue for events. And speaking of events, KSBD hosts musical events in the most unique way possible – using a 737 as a stage. Events are free but do require you to RSVP. Music ranges from event to event and the atmosphere is family friendly. Luxivair encourages pilots to fly in and enjoy the show.
