My sister in law and her family are flying from Los Angeles to meet us in the Outer Banks for vacation. Would flying into Norfolk be the best bet? She has looked and there aren't any direct flights. Any other thoughts?

Norfolk is your closest "big airport". Raleigh is 4-5hours away. Norfolk would be the best. It is what all (most) of the locals use.

Believe it or not people are flying into Greenville, NC to get to the Outer Banks. Very easy commute from G-ville.

This is for you or anyone else use the other bridge than the one on Highway 64
in the summer. If your coming from the north side this would be logical.
Spoiler
keep it a secret Highway 64 bridge gets crowded in the summer.

Norfolk, definitely. 99% sure Greenville Airport only has connecting flights to Charlotte as far as commercial airlines go.

Pitt-Greenville Airport PGV is a small airport covering 872 acres, located outside the city of Greenville, County of Pitt, North Carolina. It is easily reachable by Interstate 95 (Exit 121-East on Hwy 264) or by Hwy 64 (take Hwy 13 exit South). The airport is only two miles from the East Carolina University. With three runways, the Airport us used mainly for general aviation and charters. However, it also has one commercial airline--US Airways Express--offering a few daily flights to Charlotte, NC.
