It was formerly known equally Myrtle Beach Jetport (1974–1989) and is located on site of the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base of operations, which also includes The Marketplace Mutual shopping circuitous.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021 categorized it equally a pocket-size-hub primary commercial service facility.[5] Myrtle Beach has the second-busiest airport in South Carolina backside Charleston, with over two.4 million passengers (arriving and parting) in 2018.[6] [7]
The airport's official website since 2006 is flymyrtlebeach.com,[eight] which was previously an unofficial website owned by an airport employee.[9] In July 2012 the airport launched a redesigned website with a new logo.[10] [xi] [12]
History [edit]
An aerodrome was started on belongings from a one-time ground forces base which the federal regime transferred in 1948 through the Surplus Holding Act. The city of Myrtle Beach decided not to use the property for an airdrome only funds from the property withal had to exist used for an airport. From 1958 to 1976 these funds went to Horry County Jetport in Crescent Beach, which moved[thirteen] to the northeast part of the base after an agreement for joint noncombatant and war machine use of the base. In 1977, the Metropolis of Myrtle Beach annexed the area of Myrtle Beach Airdrome.[14] Until 1993, both MYR and Myrtle Beach AFB jointly used the main track; this limited civil operations to 30 landings per twenty-four hours and led to a local business movement to build an entirely new airdrome.[15]
In the 1980s, the airport was served past Piedmont Airlines mainline shipping (subsequently acquired past USAir) and by Delta and Eastern commuter aircraft.[xvi]
In 1993, the Air Forcefulness airtight the base of operations as a result of BRAC 1991. The runway and other portions of the sometime military machine flight line were then turned over to the Horry Canton Department of Airports.[17]
American Eagle became a major carrier at MYR in the early 1990s, operating multiple daily ATR 72 flights to the American Airlines hub at Raleigh–Durham International Airport. By late 1994 this route accounted for as much as 12% of the aerodrome's passenger traffic; all the same, American abruptly ended its American Eagle hub at Raleigh–Durham in December 1994, cancelling all service to MYR and other secondary airports in the region.[18] American returned to Myrtle Embankment in 2010 with a seasonal service to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.[19]
On April one, 1996, Myrtle Beach Airport became an international airport. A new international concluding had its grand opening August 21 of that yr, and a new logo was unveiled "to reflect the architectural design of the airport's concluding and the influence of the beach by showing a pained window and a palm tree in blues and greens".[xx]
The aerodrome served as the master hub for Hooters Air from 2003 until 2006. The airport authority offered discounted hangar space and other undisclosed benefits to Hooters Air operator Pace Airlines in an effort to relocate its operating base from Smith Reynolds Airport in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.[21] Yet, Stride decided to keep its base (also used for lease operations) in Winston-Salem.[22]
In 2006 AirTran Airways discontinued its service to Atlanta; it was the fourth-largest airline serving Myrtle Beach International at the fourth dimension.[23]
Direct Air connected a number of airports to Myrtle Embankment from 2007 until 2012, when it abruptly filed for Chapter 7 defalcation and ceased operations.[24] The failure of Directly Air caused a slump in rider traffic at Myrtle Beach,[25] which declined 16% in 2012 but rebounded in 2013. WestJet began service to Toronto in summer 2013 with a acquirement guarantee from Horry Canton, but its passenger numbers savage short of expectations, forcing the county to pay WestJet around $570,000.[26]
The airport was a designated launch abort site for the Infinite Shuttle, but was never used.[27]
Renovations [edit]

On March xvi, 2021, information technology was reported that Myrtle Beach International Drome was working on a xx-yr plan that would more than double the number of gates at the airdrome, all the same details remain to be worked out. At that place are currently two proposals for final expansions, which both would more than double the 11 gates the airport has at present. One of the plans phone call for 23 gates, and the other calls for 25 and would be built on the east side of the drome. The plan has three possible layouts for new parking with one beingness a parking garage on the east side. One of the other major addition includes more than international flights and there have been talks with two different international airlines. Some other possible addition would be providing space for a major shipping distribution centre like FedEx or Amazon. The 20-year plan has been finalized and may be presented before the Federal Aviation Assistants by the end of 2021.[29]
However, on March 18, 2021 it was airport officials clarified the aerodrome'southward immediate future plans stating a presentation showing the expansion of terminals as well equally parking lots was a long term concept, but no expansions will be implemented in the about future. These documents show the early stages of a legally required twenty-year master plan, that began in 2018, but was put on intermission due to the pandemic.[thirty]
On April 8, 2022, it was appear the airport is planning on doing $35 million expansion that will be primarily funded past the federal bipartisan infrastructure neb that was signed into law concluding yr by President Joe Biden. The renovations will include adding 4-v new gates onto the terminate of the "A" gate that is located on the south side of the building, more than fuel storage that will will add together 100,000 gallons in fuel storage capacity in case of future supply crunches, security checkpoint that will convalesce the pressure created by the current TSA bottleneck, and add together more than space for restaurants and retail.
