Airport Parking - Barkley Regional Airport

My Mom was taking a flight today. She is a spry 88 years old but is very hard of hearing and walks with a walker. After checking her bag, we rounded the corner to have 3 very friendly TSA agents waiting. Mom wears a hearing impaired sign. The agent saw it and immediately found the agent who uses sign language. Mom's hearing loss was late in life so she doesn't know sign language. Even though that was the case, he offered to assist her through the security process. Another staff member followed her up the plane ramp making sure that she made it safe and sound. It was such a good feeling that they cared for my Mom as if she were their own !!!!! Thank you so much for being so thoughtful and kind !!

I have not had any flights out of Barkley Regional, but I use Hertz Car Rental all the time there. I recommend Hertz for your vehicle rental. Great people, vehicles are always clean and ready to go! Hassle free 👍

Easiest airport in USA! Nice, polite and kind workers. Very grateful for United service to ORD.

Sadly I will probably have to do cape airport. I never ever go east. But, Barkley is a great airport. I hate the drive to Nashville to fly.

Bigger doesn’t mean better it’s small but everyone is very nice and friendly from checking in to tsa and it’s the cheapest airport parking your ever pay

Our Daughter was flying out of the Barkley airport today with her four small children. Everyone was so gracious and helpful. The ticket Lady made the kids feel special and the head of the local TSA also helped getting them all through security. We could not be more thankful for everyone’s help today.

Update: The nice folks at the airport contacted me with some potential solutions to the late night parking payment machine failures. Very helpful and accommodating to alleviate the concerns. Even with the occasional headache it's a much easier experience than the 2 hour trip each way to Nashville. Thank you Barkley Regional!



Original: Routinely have issues with the parking lot payment machine. No biggy right? Just get the whole line of exiting cars to let you backup, circle around, park, go back inside to use the backup machine to pay for the pass to get out of the lot. Nope, it's down too. And another late night watching all of us try every credit card we have to get out of the KPAH corral. If it's not going to work (seems like 3 weeks in a row but who is counting) let's just set up a coffee can and the honor system. License plate billing? Something more reliable than the unattended machines in place. If we can't operate a parking gate and the backup inside payment machine how are we going to care for a whole new terminal??

My family and I have flown out of this airport several times and have always had great experiences. It is much more convenient than driving to nashville. TSA wait time is the shortest you’ll see in an airport and the staff are all very accommodating and friendly. Would never hesitate to recommend.
