Charleston International Airport (CHS) is centrally located in the Charleston, S.C., metropolitan area and provides a first impression of the local community to the nearly 3 million passengers annually coming to the South Carolina Lowcountry for business and leisure activities.
CHS is one of three public airports owned and operated by the Charleston County Aviation Authority (CCAA). The others are Charleston Executive Airport (JZI) on Johns Island and the Mount Pleasant Regional Airport (LRO).
Chartered in 1970 by the State of South Carolina as a special purpose district, the CCAA is responsible for managing, operating and developing all public airports in the Charleston County Airport District. The CCAA is governed by a 11-member board made up of local mayors, state and county elected officials and business leaders from the region. The goal of the Charleston County Aviation Authority is to provide first-class facilities that embrace the history, culture and beauty of Charleston and the Lowcountry of South Carolina.
