No cruises go in and out of here any other month so if your argument is the leisure traveler catching a boat, you are way off in that respect. Charlestonian's only migrate to MIA or FLL to catch a cruise and that is about it. I don't see this sticking around very long. We don't need one stop service to the carribbean when we have the ocean 10 miles from the airport.....So, I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one not to use this service so expect the cancellation notice to come by April 10.
Which is why so many people in beach cities such as MIA, SAN and LAX flock to the Caribbean and Mexico respectively? Check the flight schedules on LAX to SJD for example.
