Fly private from Grand Strand Airport

Grand Strand Airport served as the original commercial airport for the Myrtle Beach area from 1956 until Myrtle Beach International opened in 1976, and today operates as a general aviation field positioned closer to North Myrtle Beach, Cherry Grove, and the northern end of the Grand Strand than the busier commercial airport to the south.

Élan Aviation coordinates aircraft, crew, and ground handling for charter flights suited to CRE's nearly 6,000-foot runway, which supports light and midsize jets in addition to turboprops, with Beach Aviation Services providing fuel and ground handling on the field.

With a tower operating daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, your charter advisor will coordinate arrival timing and ground transportation into North Myrtle Beach, Little River, and the surrounding Grand Strand communities.
