FAQs - booking South Carolina flights

  • Do I need a visa to visit South Carolina?

    No, you do not need a visa to enter the United States from the United Kingdom. However, you will need to apply for an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) permit before you leave on your trip. You can apply online for the ESTA, which will cost about £24 including processing fees.

  • Which airport is most convenient for visiting Columbia?

    The state capital of South Carolina is centrally located so you will have to drive there from either airport.

  • How do I get to Greenville from Charleston Airport?

Top tips for finding cheap flights to South Carolina

  • Book at least 1 week before departure in order to get a below-average price for flights to South Carolina.
  • High season is considered to be July and August. The cheapest month to fly from the United Kingdom is February.
  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest South Carolina flight deals.
  • Two airports that facilitate flights to South Carolina are located along the eastern seaboard that borders the Atlantic Ocean. Charleston AFB Municipal Airport (CHS) is the primary of the two and located due south of the state capital, Columbia, while Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) lies to the east of Columbia.
  • Delta flights from Birmingham Airport (BHX) to Charleston Airport (in conjunction with its SkyTeam partners KLM and Air France) will stop either at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) or Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) before making connections at New York John F Kennedy Airport (JFK), Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL) or Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) en route to Charleston.
  • However, flights solely aboard Delta leaving London Heathrow Airport (LHR) will stop first at Detroit Metropolitan Airport and then Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport before continuing on to South Carolina. Delta also offers flights from Heathrow to Myrtle Beach Airport that may stop first at Boston Logan Airport (BOS) or JFK Airport, then Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.

Those flights with connections are operated in conjunction with American Airlines and will stop at either Dallas-Ft. Worth Airport (DFW) or Miami International Airport (MIA).
  • Charleston Airport (CHS) services the greater metropolitan area that includes the towns of Summerville, North Charleston, Goose Creek and Mt. Pleasant, while Myrtle Beach Airport covers the region that includes the city of Conway and the towns of Florence, Marion and Lake City.

Pros: "Even with a full flight there was enough leg room. The crew were attentive and accomadating."
Cons: "Bathroom floors were often wet"
Pros: "Service, food, excellent. Most of all, the new entertainment system & window in bathroom!"
Cons: "1. Business class crew stomped around the cabin, making it noisy, and woke me up constantly. 2. Gallery is very loud and badly situated in business class. 3. Chair itself is old & although it’s lie-flat, makes a very uncomfortable night’s sleep."
Pros: "The flight was delayed from sfo to Hongkang. Very disappointed."
Pros: "The crew was very friendly and did their jobs well"
Cons: "What could be more fun than being jammed into coach class? It would be the high point of anyone's day. But, it was just a 2 hour flight and I had a good book."
Pros: "miracle fight landed on time"
Cons: "terrible food - poor entertaiment system with limited choice and old movies - crew always on the pa"
Pros: "Seat and legroom ok. Seats are on the narrow side if you have a large person beside you. Supper was excellent. Breakfast so so."
Pros: "I like the way Cathay has changed the process for selecting and serving dinner in business class. It adds a bit of class to the experience."
Pros: "Food choices were great"
Cons: "flight was super bumpy but not the pilot's fault"
Pros: "Familiarity with Cathay Pacific procedures"
Cons: "The airplane seemed a bit outdated. A WiFi option would have been more pleasant. Crew spoke only English, not the classic Cathay Pacific experience to HK."
Pros: "Smooth and hassle-free flight arrived on time despite taking off almost 30 mins late."
Cons: "None."

On the flight back the seats where very uncomfortable, they where so bad that my back started to hurt after the first 2 hours. I can sit in a wooden chair for 2 hours. But these where just horrible, it just shows how cheap the airline has become. And the cabin was heated all those people in a heated cabin during a night flight. It was clear the climate control was not working. To top that off you are not even offered a glass of water, these people are animals.

We purchased a Go First Pass for 10 Euros each so we could board first, but everyone was able to board at the same time so we wasted 20 Euros. The flight left ab out 15 minutes late and was not allowed to land at Healthrow so we had to circle Heathrow for about 45 minutes. This caused us to almost miss our flight from Heathrow to Atlanta.

Severely delayed with no notice. Could have arrived at the airport hours later had we been informed of the delay

It would be nice to have vegan options for meals. The entertainment was not working on the the way to Austria. It was only available near the end of flight to Canada. The service was excellent.

The business class layout on this plane is tightly packed and atrocious with no sense of privacy.

Pros: "From checkin to luggage collection - the flight was easy and without hassle. We left slightly later than scheduled but arrived slightly earlier than scheduled. Staff from check in to those onboard we polite and professional. The aircraft was clean, bright and appeared in good order."
Cons: "Luggage collection took a little while longer than I would have expected - only a minor point, nothing to change airlines for."
Cons: "Both times into Rome we had to wait on the tarmac for stairs. Either get more stairs or book fewer flights. The planes get hot in July while you wait endlessly on stairs."
Cons: "The flight itself was absolutely fine but we are very unhappy with the what lastminute.com did regarding our tickets. (As you will see when you look at the notes for our case). We shall be seeking legal assistance upon the return from our holiday & contacting you/lastminute.com for compensation."
Cons: "Check in was a mess. I paid for a seat but was given a seat at the back. Fortunately, I had the print out and insisted to Ck it."
Pros: "Pleasant crew. Clean plane."
Cons: "Leaving on time (we were an hour late because of a discrepancy between number of passengers checked and number on board.) Would be nice to have at least a complimentary bottle of water."
Pros: "I got an aisle seat right near the bulkhead with so much leg room. There were so many free amenities. It was the biggest plane I'd ever seen - very well kept and clean. Crew was nice and quick with service."
Pros: "No the seat was not super comfortable. In fact it was not even comfortable."
Cons: "The seat size and comfort"
Pros: "I like that we were on time for departure"
Cons: "The speed boarding it was confusing,no one was there in the que until they called you to board then People starting to come up from the que that was already there. Speedy boarding should be exactly that."
Pros: "On time."
Cons: "Was an older plan but ok. No plugs at seats."
Cons: "Missed my connection to Amsterdam in London because flight was delayed in New York. Flight from Amsterdam cancelled the night prior to departure. Rebooked on a flight that was highly inconvenient. No compensation from BA for stress, inconvenience and wasted time."
Pros: "The flight was delayed prior to leaving the gate, while lined up to take off and during the flight. All delays were promptly explained by members of the flight deck. The cabin crew were outstanding nothing seemed to be too much of a inconvenience to them."
Pros: "The entertainment this time was working. Always a bonus. Loos were kept clean."
Cons: "The younger staff are moody and sullen. If you don't like long hall flights change your job. BA your seats are SO old it's like sitting on a park bench for hours. I know we are in the lowest paid seats but it really isn't acceptable."
Pros: "The cabin crew were excellent. The food service was very good. Entertainment choices were abundant and generally good."
Cons: "Reaching our connecting flight. The Bataan death march comes to mind—concourse 3 to 5, oh my! Having got through all the hurdles including incomprehensible up, down, up again down again escalator rides and security pat down for my wife we got to Concourse 5 where we learned our plane was leaving from C gates, but not which C gate. So we looked for directions to C gates. The only signage was for C gates 52 to 57. Common sense would lead one to believe that C gates 1 to 51 existed somewhere in the terminal; but no they do not and not many people are aware that they don’t. There has to be a better way. Perhaps before Brexit becomes a reality you could lean on Germany’s vaunted efficiency to help clean up this nightmare scenario."
Pros: "Absolutely nothing - and this was Club Europe"
Cons: "Punctuality (lack of). Comfort (lack of). Seat pitch. Food. Cabin crew service. State of aircraft. Price (premium for a budget service)."
Cons: "overhead storage was inadequate. People were allowed to carry on bags to large to fit the overhead bins correctly."
Cons: "We were stuck in the runway for an hour before taking off. I was late for my connection."
Cons: "Made us run from one end of the airport to the opposite end, because they said they had ‘operational difficulties’, causing them to switch gates between two flights. Total baloney, and completely avoidable."
Pros: "The whole experience was without issue - I arrived at the airport 2 hrs and 15 min before my flight, I checked in with the automated kiosk, received my luggage lablel, proceeded to the bag drop, placed my bag on the belt, the machine scanned my bag and check in was complete - all done in 6 minutes."
Cons: "Lining up at the boarding gate blocked those other passengers going to other gates - my only suggestion is to put a barrier between the thoroughfare and those waiting to go into the gate but I am thinking this is more an airport issue, rather than an airline issue as such - not a major issue."
Pros: "There was a 2hr delay and communication from the pilot was misleading at often times"
Cons: "5 hour of delay!!!! For the second time in the same flight"
Pros: "The crew were very friendly and helpful."
Cons: "Flight was three hours late to depart with very little communication made to passengers."
Cons: "The automatic bag-drop could have been better staffed for the many, many people who had difficulty ."
Cons: "Facilities at gate 12 at Luton were non existent, plenty of money spent on departure lounge to get money out of people but gates were atrocious with no guidance, space or seats"
Pros: "On time departure, professional crew and comfortable seat for flight duration."
Cons: "30 min delay on arrival due to stand occupied by another easyJet aircraft."
Pros: "Crew bright polite and friendly. Professional"
Cons: "Not being easyjet. Terribly inefficient self check in for bag drop. Manchester airport appalling as usual. Not enough easiest staff to help with machines going wrong all time. Huge slow queues. Stupid idea for these machines. Slower than old system and you still need to pay staff."

Is good airline but their check in process is not simple

Cons: "Having paid for our seats I wasn't impressed to find someone else sitting in them! Steward did sort out quickly though."
Pros: "Flight Price"
Cons: "Not charging £45 for ski baggage when an oversize Check in Bag bag for same weight is £20"
Pros: "On time - good crew -"
Cons: "Noisy plane (737 ) and noisy group of passengers on adjacent rows pilot and crew announcements downed out. seat allocation charges are a ripoff - makes the total price unrecognisable to the advertised price"
Pros: "Flight was quick"
Cons: "The representative at check in almost charged us €100 for a checked bag we’d already paid for when we bought our tickets online. When I asked her “didn’t we already pay for this?” She checked her screen and just said “oh” and let us through."
Cons: "Que no hablen en español las instrucciones de vuelo y demás solo en español e inglés"
Cons: "The time of the layover between a Ryanair flight that requires you to check baggage and then pick up from the carousel, go through customs, and an Aer Lingus flight that you then had to check into at the Aer Lingus desk (online check in was not an option) and go BACK through security IS NOT HUMANLY POSSIBLE. This was a huge waste of time and money and I do not recommend using two airlines, especially not if it involves RyanAir and the Manchester airport. I have to cancel reservations that I will not be able to make the rest of the time I’m at this destination. Moving flights cost me €60 and missing my reservation at an escape room is an emotional cost that cannot be compensated. Very unsatisfied."
Pros: "For the price, you just can't beat Ryanair. The only thing that spoilt the flight were 3 drunk passengers opposite and behind who were noisy and kept annoying other passengers, however the cabin crew handled the problem very well."
Pros: "Keeps to schedule. A high performing low cost airline."
Cons: "Cost of the food and drinks but I’ll still fly with Ryanair again."
Pros: "Original price"
Cons: "We were on vacation with our 3 year old and spent almost 5 extra hours in the Budapest airport which ate up most of our day. We were notified of the delay 5 minutes before we checked in and could have caught a cab later in the day and enjoyed our last day in Budapest."
