Charleston Regional Airport - more than just planes!

Charleston International Airport is the largest airport in South Carolina in 2019 almost 4.9 million passengers traveled through this airport which was the busiest year on record. In the last several years the terminal has undergone some renovations that have made travel to our beautiful city even more appealing. In 2016 a three-year, $200 million redevelopment project was completed adding d five gates and significantly renovated the interior appearance of the facility. The original terminal was built in 1987 was designed by Howard Needles Tammen & Bergendoff, Davis & Floyd, Inc., and Lucas & Stubbs, but the Charleston Airport corporation has been there since 1928, with many changes throughout history.
During World War II the army had control of the air-field although they did continue civilian use. The air-field converted to civilian use after the war and a terminal was built in 1949.
In 1952 the city of Charleston and the United States Air Force reached an agreement to control the base and runways. In 1979 the Charleston County Aviation Authority took over the civilian portion of the airport and continues today. As you drive to the airport either you can't help but notice the Boeing facility which has been there since 2011.
A short distance away there is a cell phone waiting area that has displays for arrival times and makes waiting to pick up passengers so much easier.
I hope if you have the opportunity to travel in or out of our beautiful city you enjoy this beautiful airport and travel safe!
