All of these flights are operated by regional affiliates. One public charter airline operates limited service. It is the only airport on Hilton Head Island.
The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021 categorized it as a primary commercial service airport. USDOT records say the airport had 56,330 passengers in calendar year 2017.
