Very Reasonably Priced - But Still Not Worth The Money

I really wanted to like this museum, but honestly, there just wasn't enough to like. The Good: There is quite a bit of historical information about Southwest Airlines which was interesting to read. Scattered throughout the hanger are lots of model airplanes and memorabilia, along...More

Awesome

What an amazing museum. We were there for a wedding, but I called my husband to bring the kids early because the museum was so cool. They loved the exhibits and all the planes to look at.

Is it suitable for toddlers?

August 6, 2017|

AnswerShow all 12 answers

Yes, but as in all situations with toddlers, they must be supervised. It is not a place where they can just run and touch everything. There is a very nice play area however just for them.

We have a 3 hour layover at Love. Would that be enough time to see this museum?

September 10, 2016|

AnswerShow all 8 answers

Yes and no. If you just want to look w/o reading, then maybe you could get away with it. If you want to soak in the full experience, especially if you get a tour, you might be pulling it a little close.
