Flight
Greenville is the closest airport to fly into that is nearest to the venue. On United you can fly directly from Houston IAH Bush intercontinental, Washington Dulles, Denver, and Chicago ORD. Southwest has direct flights from Atlanta, Houston HOU Hobby, and Baltimore. Delta has direct flights from Atlanta only. American has direct flights from Dallas Fort worth DFW, Charlotte, Chicago ORD, Philidelphia, and Miami. This is subject to change as times go on. Direct flights are the easiest, just one flight to hop on there and back. However most people have to connect. So for instance if you live in Tulsa OK, in order to get to Greenville you would have to go to Houston to get to Greenville. When packing for your trip please see TSA.gov for a list of things you are allowed to bring to make going through security easier.
