Getting There

The NGS 2011 Family History Conference will be held in Charleston, South Carolina from 11-14 May 2011. We hope you will join us there!

In this posting you will find information on how to get to the venue by air and by road. Hope you have already made your hotel reservations and stay tuned to the blog for more information about the conference program and other activities.

By Air

Charleston International Airport is located approximately 13 miles northwest of downtown Charleston. Charleston International Airport is centrally located in the Charleston metropolitan area in North Charleston. The airport is situated adjacent to Charleston Air Force Base and uses the airfield facilities at the Air Force Base jointly with the USAF.

Currently, the Charleston International Airport is served by Continental, Delta, Northwest, US Airways, United Express, American Eagle, and beginning March 13, 2011 Southwest Airlines.  Over 120 flights with approximately 5,000 inbound and 5,000 outbound seats come through the terminal each day. The majority of planes serving our area are regional jets seating 75-100 people, which enables the Charleston area to offer more direct flights from a wider selection of cities.

Charleston offers non-stop & direct flight service from Atlanta, Baltimore, Charlotte, Cincinnati, Columbus, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Manchester, Minneapolis/St. Paul, New York, Newark, Norfolk, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC.  Southwest will have direct service from Nashville, Houston, Baltimore and Denver.
