Private Jet Athens to Charleston, SC

The long transatlantic route from Athens to Charleston covers approximately 4,797 nautical miles, linking the cradle of Western civilisation with the historic Lowcountry of South Carolina in around nine and a quarter hours. The distance rewards an ultra-long-range jet, and aircraft such as the Gulfstream G650 or the Bombardier Global 6000 are well suited to the leg, offering the range to make the crossing non-stop with reserves to spare and cabins built for long-sector comfort. Cruising in the low forties of thousands of feet, these jets carry passengers across the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, arriving where the marshes and beaches of the Carolina coast meet the sea. Departures are handled at Athens International Airport, whose private facilities allow a smooth start to the journey with international handling arranged in advance. Arrivals are made at Charleston International Airport, the principal gateway to the South Carolina Lowcountry. Charleston is one of the most beautiful and best-preserved historic cities in the United States, known for its cobbled streets, its antebellum architecture, its churches and gardens, and its position at the meeting of two rivers where they flow together into a broad Atlantic harbour steeped in the history of the nation. This route suits leisure travellers drawn to Charleston’s charm and heritage, as well as those with business or cultural ties spanning Greece and the American South. The generous cabin of an ultra-long-range aircraft is particularly welcome over so long a sector, and its range allows the transatlantic crossing to be made directly, sparing passengers the connections that scheduled services between these two cities would otherwise require of them on such a journey.
