Airlines and Destinations
The Federal Aviation Administration classifies Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport as a Commercial Service, Primary, Small Hub Airport.
Although having been regularly served by legacy carriers throughout its history, GSP has been plagued with high airfares, due partially to the dominance of Atlanta and Charlotte's airports in close proximity. The arrival of low-cost carriers in recent years has increased passenger figures and reduced airfare costs. Allegiant Air began flights to Florida-based destinations in 2008, and in 2011, Southwest Airlines began services to five cities.
Local officials attribute Southwest's presence to an unprecedented 38 percent growth in passenger figures between 2010 and 2011. In 2012, the U.S. Department of Transportation's Bureau of Travel Statistics reported that average fares from GSP decreased by 14 percent; the largest average decrease in the country.
