Reguarding the airpt. There is a small airpt. in HHI i believe, of course = expensive to fly into! LOL
You could also fly into Savannah GA airpt. or even Jacksonville FL ( Southwest's hub) and drive the 3 hrs to HHI. We were going to do this, but even on SW the flights for Feb. vacation week were nuts - and then we would have had to rent a car and drive to HHI.. so we just decided to take my moms car, take 2 days and drive, and save over $1200 that way.
