No Relief for Florida Airport Impacted by Trump TFR
The Secret Service says aircraft flying from Lantana Airport southwest of the Mar-a-Lago resort pose a security threat when the president is in town. A compromise that AOPA had hoped to broker to keep Florida’s Lantana Airport open when President Donald Trump visits his Mar-a-Lago estate has been rejected by the Secret Service, according to two Florida politicians who have been briefed on the matter.

Here's one solution, as president stay in Washington a lot more than you have been doing.
If KLNA had a security guy on the gate during TFR's and he checked everyone's ID and pilots license, that would go a long way to helping our case. I have my plane at KLNA and I see absolutely no security whatsoever. The Secret Service need to see the airport doing their part then we might have a chance to fly.
Can you blame the SS. After 5 Aircraft in one day Violated the Restricted Airspace. The Leftist/Liberals are just making all the issues they can for this new President and his Staff.
Nope. President is a magnet for criticism. Always has been and always will be.
the problem is that the "florida whitehouse" is not just visited once in a while, but almost every weekend..the penthouse in new York has required flying restrictions in that area as well, and that affects commercial traffic..the security scenario for this president is one that has not been encountered before,as previous presidents either went to camp david for a getaway,or on occasion to their ranch like bush and Reagan..the sad part is that florida is a tourist and retiree destination for many,and these security "concerns" are causing problems and issues for those who live and work (and yes,fly) in the area...
Trump needs to stay in the White House. These trips Florida are costing tax payers money!!
actually, they don't. POTUS is reimbursing the cost of the flights. He is also not taking the $400k per year salary. Nor is he accepting the $50k per year expense account.
Nonsense. We are not only paying for all of his junkets, but also the international travel of his family. In terms of his salary, he certainly indicated that he would not take it, but so far has not offered any definitive assurance that he will not. Until he offers proof, we can assume that the money is going into his pocket.
Oh BTW, we are also paying the costs for the SS to lease space in Trump Tower (at least that is what he tried to negotiate).
