    Mount Pleasant Regional Airport- Faison Field Airport,Linnea MurrayBrunckhorst

    My family and I are very much an airplane family and we spend a lot of time at this small airport right in Mount Pleasant. It's a small building that's very clean and well kept. The employees will quickly become like family if you frequent this airport. It's a crew of about 4 people that run the operation. They are very knowledgeable and helpful and will welcome you with a smile as soon as you walk in. If you are interested in getting your private pilot's license and live in the area, you couldn't find a better place than this Regional Airport. They do a lot of flight instruction and the flight instructors are fabulous! One of them happens to be my brother-in-law, and I can assure you he is an exceptional pilot and loves teaching people to fly. My husband has been working on his private pilot's license at this facility and we couldn't be happier with the instruction given. If you are at all interested in aviation check out this airport. We are really lucky to have it so close by. Call me today to talk about homes close to the airport or any other area.

    Charleston Regional Airport - more than just planes!,Brenda Kanehl

    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! Call me today and I can show you properties near the airport or in the greater Charleston area.
