at Signature Flight support right across the river from the hotels
We flew east along highway 40 to Laughlin, LA Center on 134.65 cut us loose about 15 miles west of the airport as we were making our decent to the river. We joined the right downwind for runway 16 near the big bend area of the Colorado River. Signature flight support has fuel and over night parking at KIFP, just call them on their Unicom 122.85 as you taxi in, and they will tell you where to park. The guy on the golf cart will meet you and pick up your stuff. Next time I'll ask them to come back later, as it takes me a half hour to collect all our junk, and secure the plane, and I don't like them having to wait for me. The Riverside Hotel is the only hotel with a free shuttle to/from the airport. I found this out after we made our reservations at the Aquarius. We used it anyway, as it was only a short walk to the next hotel over. Laughlin's a great place to fly to and enjoy all the food, (we like the Hickory Pit at the Edgewater) great prices on hotels, and play on the Colorado River. Departing Laughlin to the east you can pick up flight following once above 4,000' near Union Pass with LA Center on 134.65.
