“We’re thrilled to offer our passengers a new and exciting way to explore Bermuda,” said Elliott Summey, executive director and CEO of Charleston International Airport. “This nonstop service further strengthens CHS as a hub for travel to and from some of the world’s most beautiful and popular destinations and reinforces the airport’s role as an economic driver for the Lowcountry and state. “
