Raleigh-Durham International Airport and Charlotte Douglas International Airport are among the most heavily affected hub airports in Florence. The Charleston International Airport tweete ed that the take-off and landing strips would be shut at 23:50 on Wednesday and that they would stay shut "at least until Friday" because of the cyclone.
