ACI Jet North (KSNA)

EFFECTIVE 3/1/2026... Arrive at any SNA FBO withOUT calling at least 24 hours ahead and "requesting a Ramp PPR reservation" and they'll hit you with $100.00 just for taxiing onto that FBO's ramp. This $100.00 charge comes on top of whatever other "ramp,security, or infrastructure/facility fees the FBO is already charging. The FBOs defend it by citing an ongoing NOTAM saying "ramp construction airport wide I'd in effect until 2028. Another "gouge" fee.

I landed there and I politely inquired if I owed anything as I know ACI has a 3 hours free policy and the girl at the desk confirmed so, when her manager sitting behind her hears us and suddenly now there is a "pop up" charge of $95. I was there for literally 12 minutes.

LOOK OUT: Their ramp is under building and they're running a PPR (Prior Permission Required) process for arrival/departure. BUT...no details on this on their website, or a NOTAM. Desk staff will give you a blank look and say you can't depart "we're on the PPR program" like you should've known ahead of time. ACI North is fine, and location superb, but the absence of details about the ramp caught us off guard in the last journey. Staff said building may be going on for up to a year.

Whether it's ACI Jet North or South, they are superb. From the front desk, valet, to the line service team, everybody is so kind and professional. I'm single-engine GA and i get treated the same as the big guys. Huge admirer!!!

i'm always pleased with ACI north. Today, i required a bit more assistance. line guys assisted me lift off my cowling. i was the most vital person on the ramp to them. they found the man Jay to help with a lighting issue, and the front office personnel couldn't have been more accommodating. Nathan, the GM, was very responsive. aCI north is my home away from home, and i always feel looked after here, even in my little bird burning 100LL.

Charged $50 ramp fee daily for parking a single.

48 PPR for ACI North and South There is a NOTAM published effective 8/13/2025 to 2/28/26

Really helpful. Flew in to visit a friend in Orange County. They let me borrow the courtesy car and even extended the time so that I could get lunch. Waived ramp fee as I took on sufficient fuel. Will go back if I have to land at SNA

Good experience at ACI North! ACI is always very fine with the little guys. Only piston on the ramp and still felt very welcomed.

Upon arrival, line service was prompt, attentive, and courteous. If there is interest in having ramp access for the car/driver service, call ahead. Takes a little coordination. CSR was very helpful. Ramp space is limited for maneuvering large cabin aircraft. Overall a fine experience.
