CHS is the international airport in Charleston…read more The most laidback airport I've ever experiences. It's small but mighty and is super easy to fly in and out of. Usually I'm filled with high anxiety at airports because of the normal hustle and bustle but this one was different. Definitely a stark difference from both FLL and MIA, which is where I flew in and out of for my flights here and back. You know it's a small airport when you arrive at departures and the sign to get dropped off says "All Airlines". There's a pretty good selection of food by the gates. They have water filling stations. Did I mention that they have *working* outlets by all the chairs at their gates. I put an emphasis on working because this is often a struggle to find at airpots I've been to. Overall, a five star experience at this airport.

It's a small airport. Pretty decent for its size. Security isn't a complicated process here. It's…read moreclean, I didn't use the men's bathroom except maybe once...but I've never seen an airport with one that didn't make me want to run outside, call a taxi, and just drive to a hotel lobby bathroom rather sit down at the airport's. It has pizza, a restaurant, and few others like Chick-fil-A. Not a ton of stuff nor does it need it. It has airplanes. Aiiiirrplanes!

I came here to discuss the services outside of the main terminal - primarily because there is no…read moreother place on Yelp to rate those services, and they are extremely important to air travel. I visit this airport often - both as the traveler and the one who is dropping off/picking up passengers. I frequently use the cell lot, and it is TINY. I seriously wish they would expand this space, as it is almost always difficult to find a spot, and there is no other "free" place to wait for passengers. As a traveler, I use the long-term lot frequently. The fee is now up to $10 a day, which is more than I paid in Indianapolis. The difference, though, is that Indy had a shuttle service and enough spaces to accommodate passengers. When I moved to CHS 3 years ago, parking was $7 a day. I can't figure out why the price has increased $1 per year, when nothing in the lot has changed. That said, I always feel safe walking to and from my car. There needs to be more spaces and a shuttle for this airport. It is getting too big to operate in the same way. Finally, the signage in/around the airport needs to be clearer. It is a small airport, but keep in mind that most people don't travel to this spot every day. They need some help navigating the area. Add some useful, reflective signage to help passengers enter/exit the airport safely.

They are a great asset to this Location, CHS, SC Thanks & Best Regards, Earlier: Kathy, who is quick, sharp, intelligent and can manage many things and make the line shorter with her quick, efficient way of working - she helps both Avis and Budget in no time. She does not give reason- she noticed there were so many people ,so she came immediately from office to help clear the queue, very considerate, who were standing in CHS, SC in North Charleston (line/queue for Budget and Avis) while we came from Southwest Airlines from Baltimore, MD (February 21st 2024-Wednesday)- there were many passengers in the queue, she came and knocked off so quick and in an amicable way. Another good person to appreciate is Ms. Vickie at the gate where we had to exit from the parking lot , after she validates the license plate for the Budget car(if it is rented for you) and checks my (Florida) license to ensure we have a valid license, right rental amazingly effective. Other than the above, Good Management in Avis-Budget in Corporate is Rita Schols-Deen(Regional Administrator Global Travel, Partnerships & Associations).
