The Greenville Downtown Airport is the busiest general aviation airport in South Carolina. General Aviation consists of all flying except for military or commercial flights. While GMU is recognized as the corporate gateway to Greenville, their Community Corridor on the South Ramp provides a window to aviation. Located in the heart of Greenville’s business district, GMU offers the perfect setting for your business transportation needs. Only a few miles away sits the Inland Port Greer, a rail-served port facility in Upstate South Carolina. Owned and operated by SC Ports, Inland Port Greer extends the Port of Charleston’s reach 212 miles inland via rail to ensure the swift movement of goods for customers. GMU is your perfect East Coast hub along I-85 between Atlanta, GA and Charlotte, NC. GMU employs more than 547 people and has a direct annual economic impact of $68.8 million to the South Carolina economy. Safety will always be their number one priority as they strive to continuously improve the airport for the flying public.
