Getting around Charleston with a group
- Charleston International Airport (CHS). CHS says all ground transportation is outside Baggage Claim at the west end of the terminal; its page lists rideshare, hotel-shuttle, taxi and CARTA bus pick-ups but does not describe a limousine or charter-bus zone, so confirm the meeting point with your operator.[1]
- The visitor bureau notes that the Historic District is meant to be explored on foot and suggests parking at the Visitor Center (375 Meeting Street) and using the free hop-on, hop-off DASH shuttle, which stops across the peninsula.[2]
- Fort Sumter is reachable only by the concession ferry, so a charter's timing must be built around the ferry ticket rather than a vehicle drop-off at the fort.[3]
- At CHS, the sheltered rideshare pickup is across both roadways from Baggage Claim, so groups using any vehicle other than the airport's listed options should agree on a meeting point in advance.[1]
Check an operator before you pay a deposit
South Carolina's motor-carrier statute lets the Office of Regulatory Staff, on the Public Service Commission's directive, issue Class C certificates for specific-trip passenger carriage, and limousines and other for-hire vehicles may instead be licensed by a city or county; ask the operator which certificate or local license it holds.[4]
Carriers crossing state lines need USDOT/FMCSA operating authority, which you can check on FMCSA's company snapshot (SAFER).[5]
Drinks on board in SC
South Carolina's open-container statute makes it unlawful to possess open beer or wine in a motor vehicle on a public highway outside the trunk or luggage compartment. The statute text lists exceptions only for legally parked vehicles at events with traffic control and names no limousine or charter-bus exception, so confirm onboard alcohol policy with the operator. (S.C. Code 61-4-110)[6]
General information, not legal advice. Operators set their own rules, and underage drinking is illegal in every state.
