Acadiana Regional Pilot Reviews:
Ronnie M.
June 26, 2026Dropped in for two nights and got outstanding help from the line techs and CSR's. This may be the nicest facility you'll find in a small town-or even a small city-and having a real in-house restaurant is a major plus. That kind of luxury isn't cheap, though; the fuel prices and fees were the steepest I've seen in quite a while, even after the Avfuel discount.

April 10, 2026Freeman Jet Center is outstanding! We regularly bring Army helicopters in here, and the service is consistently fast and professional. Friendly staff, plus a great restaurant right on site. 10/10

December 11, 2025Very pleasant personnel, fine amenities. Fuel cost is somewhat steep, they also add on about 12% in extra unlisted charges, not counting the facility charge, and handling charge and tie down charge. KREG which is about 20min away is just as pleasant and is 35% less.
