I always plan my cross countries to include a RON at COS if possible and I have found Cutter to be a first class operation. It was dark with low ceilings, wind and icing. The tower people were great, both in getting us on the ground, and in guiding us to Cutter. This is not an easy airport to navigate in the dark if you are not very familiar. Cutter guide vehicle was waiting at the taxiway (a real help considering their location. They had my wife and our luggage in the van and a hangar spot ready for us by the time the prop stopped. The line guys were well informed of the recent Piper gear service bulletin issues and were right on top of the requirements necessary. Made us a reservation at the local Holiday Inn, which has a very nice sports bar type restaurant. Plane was pulled, fueled and ready as requested. Always a good experience here.

I had never flown into Sky Harbor (usually going to Scottsdale). My conference was only 4 miles from Sky Harbor so I thought I'd take a chance on the "Big Airport" hassles and higher costs. Although the fuel is more expense than most Phoenix area airports, it's still less than Scottsdale. I used Cutter's courtesy shuttle to and from my hotel and saved on renting a car. Everyone at Cutter was fantastically nice and helpful. The controllers were also friendly and helpful. A final note. When I got home I realized I had been charged a $75/day ramp fee (with the first day waived). I called them today and they immediately recognized the mistake (I have a Mirage and they charged me the Meridian rate). They refunded the difference to my credit card. First class service all around. I'll certainly use Cutter the next time I'm in Phoenix.

My experience at Cutter ABQ last week was great. The day before arriving I clicked on the Cutter website link on AirNav and was offered a web chat with a service advisor. They quickly arranged everything for our stay, including rental car and a nice discount at the Hotel Andaluz (great boutique hotel downtown!). When we arrived late on Wednesday, they brought the car right up to the Cirrus and gave us directions to the hotel. The next day, the airplane was already filled up as requested and we got an AOPA avgas discount. Hat's off to the service team of Chantel, Kerrie, and Elizabeth and the line crew at Cutter ABQ!
