Myrtle Beach International Airport named "Best Small Airport" 2021

Fans of the Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) have rallied behind the South Carolina airport, enabling MYR to secure the title “Best Small Airport” in the 2021 USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards.

The annual USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards highlight the best of the best in the travel industry and nominees in all categories were chosen editorially by a panel of experts in partnership with 10Best editors, while the top ten winners were determined by popular vote.

Voting took place over four weeks in January and drew together Myrtle Beach International Airport’s fan base for an opportunity to support their favorite airport.

“The airport team is incredibly proud of this win,” said Scott Van Moppes, Director of Airports. “This title places MYR in the national spotlight, allowing the rest of the country to see why our airport is a favorite among travelers and continually growing in popularity. Our team works diligently to provide the best possible customer experience and being named “Best Small Airport” is proof of that hard work. We are grateful to everyone who took time to vote and we would like to thank our loyal following for its continued patronage and support in this contest.”
