Security Fee

Permalink Submitted by pilotgary on Mon, 07/24/2017 - 00:16

I learned today that when I asked "what is the minimum fuel to waive fees?" and received a response of "7 gallons" it is not true. I took the 7 gallons and when clearing my bill at time to leave they charged an additional $18 for a security fee. I was told it could not be waived unless I had only been there about 30 minutes or less. They said ALL Atlantic FBOs now charge this. Yet a new question "what other fees are not included in waivable fees?"
