This airport is probably great for residents of the East Valley, which I am not. It takes twice the time to get here from Phoenix and it's confusing to figure out the route after one leaves the freeway.
Parking is difficult and I recommend parking across the street, south of the terminal. Parking right by the terminal is crowded and not worth waiting behind a million other cars to enter and exit. You pay for parking when you exit.
The airport itself is nice but at times when lots of flights are coming in, it's very crowded and doesn't have enough seating. Food service is very limited. If the flight you are waiting for is late, it's a bleak, boring wait. No stimulation at the airport whatsoever.
