Allentown PA?

[gmores]

I'll have to be flying in to the Allentown area early next week for a funeral. Any recommendations aside from ABE and if ABE is the preferred airport, a recommended FBO?

Queen City is good as well. A bit smaller.

Both ABE and XLL are fine, only 1 FBO at each.

Been to both. Both good. Just pick the closest.

Glenn, what actual town is the funeral in? If its south of ABE, My home KRDG could be a good spot to come into. I could also loan you a car for the day. ABE to RDG is 10-15 minutes air or about 45 minute drive. Let me know.

Thanks for the airport/FBO info and thanks Randy for the kind offer. I'm not positive yet on the location of the funeral service but I'm pretty sure we'll be in Allentown itself. I do know that the cemetery is Cedar Hill which is just outside the city.

The deceased is my 97 year old grandmother who lived and worked in the mills in Allentown her entire life - talk about a tough life! She had retired out in Spokane and is coming back home tomorrow or Friday - I'm still trying to get copies of funeral arrangements she had made a few years back. I'm trying to help with the arrangements as my own mother isn't up to it. So hopefully I'll know more today.
