Seek southern comfort in Charleston

Every time we blink it seems another direct flight opens to a southern US city. In 2018 the big newcomer was Nashville, before that New Orleans. In 2019 it’s Charleston – BA is launching the first non-stop flights from London to the charming South Carolina city in spring; the route will run April-october. Hop aboard to stroll Charleston’s historic district and to visit the Slave Mart, which once stocked the plantations that bankrolled the city and is now home to a fine museum. Civil War-era sites, antebellum mansions, creeks filled with dolphins and manatees, and a buzzing food scene complete any visit – well, that and a cool mint julep!
