February 20, 2025
American Airlines announced the return of nonstop service between Charleston International Airport (CHS) and New York’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA), beginning June 6, 2025. The twice-weekly flights will provide travelers with a convenient, direct connection between the historic charm of Charleston and the vibrant energy of New York City.
“We’re thrilled to welcome the return of American Airlines’ nonstop service, providing Charleston area travelers with another convenient option to access the nation’s largest market,” said Elliott Summey, CEO and Executive Director of the Charleston International Airport. Summey continued, “Charleston International Airport’s growth over the past five years has consistently ranked us among the fastest-growing airports in the United States. American Airlines has played a pivotal role in that progress. This service means more flights and larger aircraft, delivering greater convenience for our customers and enhancing the region’s connectivity.”
“American’s continued investment in our market propelled it to become Charleston International’s top-volume airline the last two years. This new LaGuardia route reinforces their commitment to our long-standing partnership and further illustrates the desirability of our destination to visitors from the New York Metro area,” said Helen Hill, President and CEO of Explore Charleston and Chair of the Aviation Authority.
Tickets for the new route are now available for booking on aa.com and through the American Airlines mobile app.
