Beach Within Reach

Locals with a hankering for a little southern comfort need look no further than Westchester County Airport in White Plains, where Elite Airways LLC began offering nonstop flights to Myrtle Beach International Airport in April. Early-bird fares begin at $199 each way for the pet-friendly flights running on Sundays and Thursdays to South Carolina. Free snacks and beverages, as well as one free checked bag and no ticket-change fees, are also part of the bargain, making for one great way to hit this popular beach area.
