The Jetport's Rules and Regulations of 9 January 2002 say aircraft washing "shall be performed only in designated areas and in the manner prescribed by the Airport Manager" and in line with the Jetport's storm water pollution prevention plan. Owners may wash their own aircraft in designated areas, or have it washed by operators authorized under an agreement or permit with the City.
The Minimum Standards, revised 4 December 2025, class washing and cleaning as Limited Aircraft Services and Support, and the Jetport's permit form states that a Commercial Aeronautical Activity Permit is required before any commercial activity begins. Winter shows up in the paperwork too: the city set general aviation de-icing fluid capture and recycling charges by a legal notice dated 7 November 2022.
Northeast Air lists a heated hangar, on-call U.S. Customs and line service from 5:30 am to 10:30 pm daily.
