Airport Information
The closest major airport to Winthrop University is Charlotte/Douglas International Airport. See their web site at flycdia.com/airserv.htm for info on parking, shuttle services, and general information.
Other regional airports include Greenville/Spartanburg (approximately 2 hours drive) and Columbia (approximately 1.5 hours drive). Most flights to these airports go through Charlotte and are rarely significantly less expensive.
Although Charlotte is in North Carolina and Rock Hill is in South Carolina, the two cities are less than half an hour from one another. Rates into Charlotte are generally reasonable as it a major hub for US Air.
Also, we have made arrangements for a discounted rate for shuttle service through Rose Limo Service. Their rate for a sedan from the Charlotte/Douglas airport to Rock Hill is about $80 per sedan (which includes gratuities). The sedan service can fit three people comfortably. You can book their services at their web site at http://www.rose-limo.com. |
