Charlotte Douglas International Airport

Decent airport with a somewhat logical layout. There are different concourses and dedicated security lines in front of each. They all feed into the same open area. Security was quite slow and the charging stations were not great, i.e. Charge slowly. All in all, it was a mediocre experience.

A very friendly AA gate agent told me once on a flight from Wilmington to Charrllote that this airport is hug layover airport for a lot of the passengers. She had to be right because at 10pm local time this airport was packed with people transferring from one gate to another. I was among those passengers and must say that I did not have a problem finding my new gate on the other side of the airport. The airport is clean and has a huge number of restaurants including a great sushi place next to terminal B

This airport is clean, easy to navigate and has really good retail — food and shopping. It’s been a few years since coming through the airport but they’ve done a great job with expansion, maintenance and ensuring a good customer environment.
My main gripe is Delta’s presence. They are relegated to a bit player, with no SkyClub.

Charlotte Douglas has really evolved over the last few years. They have made some great improvements both in services and restaurant options.
It gives off a very open feeling in the main part of the airport. There are a lot of Windows that bring in natural light. To the traveler that’s important as you don’t feel that you are cooped up.
The only thing that I don’t like about the airport is the bathroom attendants. I say this for a number of reasons.
1. It’s just creepy.
2. There isn’t a ton of room in the bathrooms with all of the traffic and these guys just get In he way.
3. ITS CREEPY!!!

My American Airlines hub from Newport News, Va. Free WiFi for 45 minute intervals. Moving walkway escalators make getting to terminals easier and quicker. Plenty of food vendors throughout. Clean and efficient Airport. I’ll be back through soon.

Maybe because I’m from Atlanta and live in Denver that this airport seems microscopic to me. It’s so tiny! I really don’t know what else to say than that, lol. You’re in one gate and out the other! And it seems that every plane that leaves from here is a shaky crop duster! Always a scary thought when I see this place on my itinerary. Flights from this place always leave me feeling like I’m going to fall from the sky!

I fly through Charlotte about 3 times a month, and while I don’t mind the airport when flying into and out of Terminals A, B, C, & D, I abhor Terminal E.
As soon as I realize that my connection goes through Terminal E, My mood immediately shifts into stress mode because the terminal is always crowded, and it is a ridiculously long walk from the other terminals, so be ready to run to catch your flight if you fly into Terminal A or B and connect in E. In addition, there aren’t any decent restaurants or bars in E to pass the time if you have a longer layover, and the terminal is insanely HOT (at least 85 degrees in E today)! I can’t begin to understand why the airport doesn’t add a tram or something to transport travelers to Terminal E more quickly, and I am also at a loss as to why they don’t fix the air conditioning.
One other beef that I have with the Charlotte Airport is the lengthy lines that planes must go through after pushing out of the gate before taking off. As an American Airline frequent flyer, the other options for connections are even worse than Charlotte (Washington DC, Philadelphia, & Chicago). The only saving grace that the Charlotte airport has is that flights normally run on time, and you can get great BBQ at Brookwood Farms in the main food court. If not for Terminal E, I’d give Charlotte at least 4 Stars, but E pulls the rating down significantly.

Quite possibly the worst airport I’ve ever had a layover at. Look at the airport map and find gate C16. That is where our American Airlines flight landed on June 13^th at 3:48 PM EST. Now find B16 on the same map. That is where our connecting flight’s gate was located. The flight was set to depart at 4:10 PM EST. We got there at 3:59:59 PM EST. Any guess as to how this story ends? Let me tell you. DC Comics’ The Flash couldn’t have made it to that fucking gate in time to catch that connecting flight, let alone my fat ass. Of course, it didn’t help that some old lady got caught day-​dreaming on the people mover and busted her ass where it ends. I wanted to stop and ask if she was okay, but my flight was more important than her concussion. Next obstacle? All of the damn people in the walkways queued up at the gates. It was like walking thru a concert crowd trying to get from gate-​to-​gate. It was literally the most hostile airport environment I’ve ever witnessed, and nearly impossible to navigate.
Since we missed our flight, we had to hang out in the airport for several hours to wait for another plane headed to RDU. To avoid a complete meltdown, I needed a drink. We managed to find a seat at Big Daddy’s where $ 48 got us 2 beers, an order of a tater tots and a waitress with the personality of a yokel’s broken banjo string. In the future, I will NOT book a flight that goes thru this shithole of an airport.
Pro tip: Should you have the misfortune of being at this airport, the phone charging outlets are very hard to find, but can be located under the 55″ TV screens in some gate areas, specifically next to gate C3.

I was shocked how clean this airport was! LOTS eating places and most importantly… CHARGING STATIONS! The restrooms even have attendants that offer mouthwash and other amenities to add a touch of class for those that want a little extra care.
We don’t usually spend too much time in airports, so bathroom cleanliness is paramount to me… and this place was clean enough to eat off the floors… almost :-P
I got in late (around midnight) and it was strange that they crammed 5 simultaneously arriving flights into two baggage claims even though there were another few carousels that were not in use at the same time in the same area… hence the 4 stars instead of 5.

Charlotte is a pretty nice airport. It’s a big hub for American. There are moving sidewalks to help get you from one terminal to the next. There are a decent variety of restaurants and shops in the terminal areas. There are charging stations to plug in your phone or tablet.
I have not actually left the airport, only made connections here, so I can’t comment on the baggage claim or rental car facilities.

This hasn’t been the worst airport I’ve been too but it definitely isn’t the best. Since our flight got delayed, we arrived past 9pm so everything was closed. There was a restroom attendant, though. There aren’t any actual diaper changed stations. They have small countertops with a trash can underneath to change babies diapers. This is better than nothing! But I find it odd that there isn’t a diaper changer in the airport.
When we went to get our luggage, the bag claim screen on the carousels didn’t have our flight information. The arrival/​departure screen didn’t have our flight information on there at all! So, we didn’t know which carousel our bags were going to be on so we had to walk back and forth checking which one it would be. When we tried to ask someone that worked there, no one knew.
We did get our bags and got to our final destination. We did have to come back to this airport a couple days later to pick up a rental car and the signs aren’t labeled clearly for rental cars. We followed a «rental cars» sign to find that it only was for returning cars only. We couldn’t figure out how to get to the other side to pick up the car. It was super confusing. We saw several cars (a bunch of taxis!) trying to get to the pick up place.

Very quiet… almost eerie. I’m not sure if it’s like this during non-​holiday times and weekdays. No issues of concern: efficient, tons of quality restaurants (ie Phillips, Bad Daddy’s, etc.), and clean bathrooms). The weird annoying part are the bathroom attendants that stare (creepsters) at you near the tip jar and Listerine dispenser?! Star deduction.

People coming toward me, people coming from behind me, wheels rolling over my feet…
CLT was definitely designed as a domestic airport, not a major hub of a legacy airline as one of US’s international gateway. Literally everywhere but the central nexus is extremely crowded with people, and the situation is worsened by the poor design of the boarding gate, which a huge line of people awaiting to board their flights spill into the hallways. The distance that may take a few minute normally will take significantly more in this airport.
Also, good luck finding a seat!
To add fuel to the fire, the food here is also expensive even by airport standards: more than $ 10 for the cheapest entrees anywhere.
Bottom line is that avoid transferring in this airport. If you must, don’t tempt fate and give yourself more than an hour.

tl;dr version
1) Overcrowded airport
2) Overpriced food

I love this small airport! Organized, clean, easy to navigate and plenty of rocking chairs throughout to sit and relax.
The Atrium is wonderfully well thought out and gives it a spacious feel.
Airport staff I have encountered are professional, friendly and helpful.
Also glad it has a USO located on the second floor of the Atrium.

Very nice airport. Which is pretty critical when traveling since a lot of our time can be spent here. Whether you have an extended layover, canceled flight or simply passing through; an airport’s amenities can truly make or break your mood.
Douglas is large enough to offer plenty of food, drink, window shopping options without being overwhelming. You definitely won’t get lost in this airport but you’ll find ways to utilize your time just right. As long as I can find a Starbucks, clean restroom with good vanity mirrors and a USB port… I’m a happy camper.
~Christy (celebrating #900)

Principalmente me ha parecido un aeropuerto bastante cómodo, ya que aunque es muy grande, las terminales están todas interconectadas a través de un gran vestíbulo acristalado y es muy fácil moverse aun cuando el tiempo entre conexiones sea muy pequeño).
Lo que menos me ha gustado de este aeropuerto es que todas las tiendas son pequeños corner, en lo que en casi todos ofrecen las mismas chuminadas, siendo casi todos de restauración.
Agradables las mecedoras que hay dispuestas en sitios estratégicos, y el gran número de enchufes para poder trabajar mientras esperas tu conexión. Wi-​fi gratis 45 minutos.

This airport is trash and I will do everything I can to avoid having a layover here. One particular area in Section C smells absolutely rancid. I had a layover at this airport to and from Punta Cana. CLT is one of American Airlines hub and it’s extremely crowded. If you are in a rush to catch your next flight you will most likely run into someone since the hallways are narrow and people walk extremely slow. My most recent experience flying back from Punta Cana was the most frantic experience I have had at the airport. My flight landed 20 minutes early at CLT but since we were an international flight we had to wait for a gate to open up at Terminal D. We ended up waiting on the tarmac for literally 1 hour 10 minutes (waiting for the other flight to taxi out and we got stuck in traffic with the other planes).
So by the time I am inside the terminal, I had half an hour to get through customs, TSA and to my gate. The customs line was extremely long and they only had 3 workers so it took forever. Long story short– by the time I made it through customs, TSA and sped walk to my gate I made my flight. Unfortunately numerous people on my previous flight did not end up making it so there were a bunch of vacant spots on the plane. No thanks CLT. Never again.

Second time here in a month. Overcrowded, very long lines at the unimpressive overpriced food chain shops. not enough seating at the gates. Very few and far between charging stations and outlets. Walking from 1 gate or terminal to another is so heavily foot-​trafficked, there should be lanes for turning and crossing to the other side of the corridor.
The last time I was here I was rushing between flights. Now that I have more time to spend I can see how unpleasant it really is here.
I’d recommend a layover almost anywhere else

I just read an article that Charlotte is now the 5^th busiest airport in the US, and the 6^th busiest airport in the world based on take-​offs & landings. I was floored by this article, mainly because when you’re here … it doesn’t feel that busy at all!
I grew up going to DTW & CLE airports who are also ranked up there as busiest. and which those, you can tell. Security can be brutal, and baggage claim even worse.
If anyone can say they ‘enjoy’ the airport experience … this would be the cream of the crop. Security might back-​up at times, but you’ll fly through in 20 minutes or less usually. There’s a great selection of food & plenty of places to charge while you wait. If you’re gonna be stuck in an airport with strangers, I’d rather it be here.

CRT IMHO is a tough review to write about. I had mixed feelings about this airport because the negatives easily outweigh the positives. Here’s my perspective from someone who’s visited CRT for the first time:
Positives:
–Clean throughout
–Charging stations at each gate
–Lots of food options (Liked the 1897 market)
–Concourses clearly marked with large signage
–Airport staff are courteous, friendly and helpful
–US customs lines were long but steadily moving
–Ditto for the TSA lines
Negatives:
–Crowded (even on a weekday!)
–US customs kiosk not friendly to the height challenged. (I had to jump to take my photo and I looked ridiculous doing so.)
–Navigation through customs, baggage claims and TSA can be confusing at times. After coming off the plane, I found a lot of people standing around lost trying to figure out where to go next. I found this to be a problem with noobs like myself, immigrants and the elderly. Had Ben not been there to help me get around, I would’ve been completely lost. Not knowing where to go held up the lines and caused major traffic jam. They have staff on hand to guide you through this part to help you get to your next destination but, clearly, there weren’t enough. There are a variety of ways this could be improved through use of more signage, staff and perhaps a line to corral people into going the right direction.
–No cellphones can be used in the customs area. Use your cellphone and it will get confiscated. Poo.
–No clocks in the customs area. I wanted to know what time it was but couldn’t take out my cell phone. Double Poo.
Side note for international travelers: As soon as you get off the plane, just have your passport, customs form, baggage claim ticket and boarding pass in your hand. You can’t believe how many people fail to do this and then hold the line up because their frantically digging through their pockets and purses to get them. Sigh. People!!! If your going to hold the line up, have the common courtesy to pull off to the side and obtain your items! DO NOT HOLD UP THE LINE!!! There are others trying to get to their plane in a short amount of time. Getting through an already crowded airport is nerve wracking enough. Don’t be that dick and make the experience worse.

Fiquei pouco tempo nesse aeroporto, fui apenas pra fazer uma conexão. Mas eu cheguei em Charlotte morrendo de fome, porque o avião da American Airlines não oferece comida (só uns snacks fuleiros e super caros).
Tinham muitas opções de restaurantes! Tinham uns mais chiques e uns mais pobres. Decidi comer uma pizza, já que eu tava com pouco dinheiro.
O aeroporto era todo limpinho, os banheiros também estavam super limpos. Em frente aos portões de embarque tinham mesas com tomadas pra carregar o celular ou notebook. Também tinha Wi-​fi liberado!

This place is so big. We landed at gate B and walked to gate E. I wonder how many miles that is. I didn’t have my pedometer on. Someone today who wears a Fitbit would know for sure. If you worked at this airport, you could easily get your 10,000 daily steps in.
We had about an hour layover at this airport. There was a little bit of a delay. We were notified our flight was going to be delayed because we were waiting on one of the crew. It turned out to be the pilot. Ha! That’s definitely an important person to wait on. Can’t fly without him/her…turned out to be a him.
I’ve flown directly in and out of this airport. There is definitely a lot of parking; on and off site. However, with the amount of traffic this airport has, sometimes it’s concerning to find a place to park. They have lots of shuttles.
Also, the food selection is ample and wide; coffee, beer, sorbet, pizza, Italian, hamburgers, you name it. I also saw a Farmer’s market in gate E. No kidding! Also, if your in the mood to do a little side shopping… like at Brighton’s or for a Bose radio or Drone, they have it. Don’t know how you’ll be able to get the Drone in your carry on.
This airport has many airlines to get you to your wide array of destinations on your next family fun or business trip.

Very comfortable layover spot that was busy, yet easy to navigate. Only one complaint: the smell of mildew at some of the restaurants in the B & C concourses. I arrived at this airport early in the morning (before 0700) and my thought it that the cleaning cloths were not changed from the day before. I don’t know if that was the case but the smell near several of the restaurants was a real deterrent to my entering any of them, even for just a snack.
On a much higher note, there are lovely white rocking chairs dotted throughout the concourses they were reminiscent of an invitation to sit and chat on someone’s porch — very nice touch.
Functional, efficient airport that I hope to visit again in my future travels.

Wow, this is my new favorite airport. I’ve connected through here a few times and have now come to appreciate its excellence. It’s really large but surprisingly accessible (5 terminals, but all connected by walkways, no need for a shuttle/​tram) with tons of moving walkways. Everything is well marked with giants maps aplenty. I had no trouble getting around.
I’m currently enjoying the main hall area where I am 1) sitting in a huge row of rocking chairs nestled among real trees, 2) listening to a live pianist, 3) considering which of the great airport food choices I’m going to take advantage of, and 4) enjoying fast, free wifi. Is this southern hospitality? If so, consider me charmed.
The real clincher for me though have been the people. Within five minutes of landing, I saw several oversized go-​karts driving people who have mobility difficulty (and it doesn’t seem pre-​arranged, I saw one lady walk up and inquire and they just got her on). I’ve now overheard multiple drivers who have been exceedingly patient and friendly with the often elderly travelers. Random employees have been unfazed by being stopped for directions. The restroom attendant was happy and friendly, and the bathroom was in great shape.
Suffice it to say that for future flights, I would welcome the opportunity to connect through Charlotte and give this airport business. It has connecting flights all over the US and into South America and Europe, so that probably won’t be difficult!

CLT is definitely in the top tier of airports on the east coast. It is clean and modern and well laid out. It is huge with 5 «wings» and is always crazy busy (9 – 10 pm is really crazy with all the last flights of the day connecting/​leaving). There are tons of options for flights anywhere in the world due to it being American’s #2 hub. I love the rocking chairs throughout the airport.
Security is always a breeze… never had any problems…“E” especially is always empty with no one waiting.
Lots of decent food options. There is a Starbucks near each wing… unfortunately they are too small and lines are usually long.
Parking is amazing now that they have mostly finished all the parking upgrades/​construction. Long term parking is a steal at $ 5 per day! I can get from terminal to Long Term parking in 5 minutes on a bus. (Compare that to O’Hare where long term parking involves a 30 minute trip with a train and a bus and costs $ 19). Curbside valet is amazing if you have no time but have the $ 24 (compare that to $ 48 at O’Hare). Business valet is great at $ 14 per day. People in Charlotte don’t realize how good you have it.
I think the bathrooms are too small and cramped. Not sure what I think about the «bathroom attendants.» They are ready for upgrading.

My first time at Charlotte Douglas Airport. Very nice. Why had a wheelchair in our party and not only did the attendant help us with our luggage, they took us all the way out to our rental car. Very nice, clean little airport. Forty-​five minutes of free wi-​fi. Very pleased!

I had a lay over here and is actually a bigger airport than I expected. It was easily to navigate around terminals since I had a short layover. I noticed a lot of variety for food and drinks while here but didn’t get a chance to get anything.

I had no idea Charlotte was such a major hub! The airport is huge, modern, and clean (so much nicer than so many other, older east coast airports). And tons of options for food, drinks, and shopping. I was almost disappointed that our layover was too short to explore the airport because it was so nice!

My feet hurt so bad by the time we were boarding our second plane that I didn’t wear my cute boots again for four days. You see, it’s easy to get turned around in the Charlotte airport. Somehow, we managed to visit every single terminal by the time we left. Sometimes multiple times.
Our main visits were to:
–Terminal F… or maybe E? One of those. That’s where we got off our first flight.
–Terminal B: Our connecting flight was supposed to leave out of this terminal, but then it wasn’t there. I then noticed the flight being listed off as located in Terminal C, so we booked it there, but it had already left.
–Terminal C: Super nice American Airlines attendant re-​booked me in 4D for the next flight out — an aisle with a bunch of legroom! And no one next to me! I was so pleased. Best flight ever. Best. flight. ever.
–Carolina Beer Company: Mediocre and felt like an Applebees. Pass.
–A Taste of Carolina: Not mediocre and didn’t feel like an Applebees. Go.
–BOJANGLES: See my specific review. All the love to this fast food chain.
–Bathrooms: They were… okay. Small but generally clean. Much better than *some* airport bathrooms. (Lookin’ at you, NOLA, and your super weird attached seat covers.)
I also bought a Coke for just about $ 3, which I guess is normal in an airport. Unfortunately, I left basically the whole bottle in the plane’s seat pocket. Downfall of having too much space, I suppose.
Our flight from Charlotte left on time; boarding was easy. Overall I really liked this modern airport. I wouldn’t mind another NC layover.

The Charlotte airport is large. It’s also pretty nice. Let’s also add a little confusing to that list.
I wish I had a Fitbit and could tell you how many miles I walked in this airport during my layover.
Due to a missed connection at the fault of the airline, my friend and I ended up with some downtime here. Of course a valiant effort to catch the plane was made, however confusion over the correct gate would have squashed the 1% chance we had of making our flight anyways.
So what do you do in an airport with a layover? Bar hop of course. We had some trouble finding the Carolina Beer company. Then we had some trouble finding Bojangles. We walked. A lot.
The bathrooms were pretty bad though. The stalls were so tiny making it really hard to maneuver with a carryon bag. Such is life.
All and all, the airport was modern, bright and we probably could have killed a lot more time there if needed.

Quand est-​ce que les humains vont comprendre que du tapis, c’est dégueulasse? Anyway. Il y a 5 minutes, je né savais même pas dans quel État j’étais. Ça arrive, né pas savoir.
L’aéroport n’est pas trop grand. Ça l’est juste assez pour explorer pendant une petite heure. C’est très joli et moderne, tout est très clairement indiqué, il y a plusieurs commerces intéressants (et 8 Starbucks je pense (sans farce)).
Par contre, les couloirs sont très peu spacieux, on se marche sur le pieds. Les mautadits karts pour personnes à mobilité réduite qui passent aux 2 minutes (sans exagération) sont immenses et font un bruit simplement insupportable, un bip bip bip strident à souhait.
Tous les bancs ont des accoudoirs, alors pour le roupillon, il faut se contenter du tapis.
Une étoile pour le style, une autre pour les commerces et une autre pour souligner le bon service offert aux personnes vivant avec des limitations. Ça doit être pas mal, au nombre de karts qui passent.
Et oh, free wifi. ;)

I have passed through this air port a couple of times here lately. The first trip was a 5 hour lay over. That wasn’t so fun, but what was fun… I was able to grab a Cinnabon and coffee and sit in the rocking chairs underneath a big ass plane… YEAH I said that. I sit in a white rocking chair (like i was at Cracker Barrel or my granny’s house), eating my ginormous Cinnabon, drinking my coffee while sitting underneath a big ass plane hanging from the ceiling. It was kind of surreal.
Another time I passed through here, I stopped at California Pizza Kitchen grabbed a bite. I wish I would have kept walking. That place left alot to be desired.
Everything else here was ho hum after traveling from Vegas. The bathrooms here also seemed to be always broken or being cleaned. I don’t know what that is all about. This is the biggest reason for their 3 star. They would be lower if it wasn’t for the cinnamon roll under the plane while rocking. Most people in airports need to learn to slow down and take it all in. I think they will enjoy life more.

Have you seen the layout of this Airport? I’ll attach one here. It is a LONG HAUL to get from Concourse to Concourse, and I normally arrive at my destination Gate thirsty and sweating profusely. Every time I go through here I arrive at Gate C and my departing flight is at Gate E. It makes for a lot of peeps getting to their connecting flights late and unhappy, so I’ve witnessed. Also, the bathroom attendants holler friendly greetings to you and everyone else in there to get their tips. Really? I can seriously do this on my own, thank you very much! After all, clean and fresh are not adjectives I’d use for that cavern of johns. The airport has lots of restaurants and shops though to take your mind off your frustrations, and lots of people movers if they are working, which helps.

I just don’t have good experiences here. Customs is always chaotic at best, although at least this time the staff wasn’t too unpleasant.
Baggage handlers did a good job getting our luggage from customs recheck to our jet, which was a tight connection. So, bravo to them.
Security here is always a negative experience. Not just unpleasant, but there are some serious creepers working there. Very strange and inappropriate comments coming out of one worker in particular.
Costs an arm and a leg just for water, AND the bathroom was a huge line for nasty stalls.
So, that about sums it up. Yeah.

Always liked this airport for my international trips. The layout is good and so is getting around here.
During cold weather, I would prefer this airport over the other international airports in NC/​SC/​GA.

This is a nice airport. Clean throughout well signposted. Bathrooms have attendants — you should tip them but they do keep the place very clean.
I napped for a couple of hours behind the gate podium at E1. Then sat in a rocking chair by farmers market listening to the nice music watching the smiling people walk by

My layover at Charlotte was easy. Their signs were clearly marked. I love their atrium where most of their food court are located. I even found Cinnabon here. I was psyched! Thank you!
Charlotte also has Pet Therapy dog that will greet you and give you dog kisses. My Therapy dog greeted me with a nice hand shake and hug. Sure gets rid off all that stress in traveling. They also have a line up of rocking chairs in the middle of the atrium. It was quite nice especially facing towards the view where planes were taking off. What’s not to love about Charlotte airport where you are provided clean bathrooms, nice staff, wide aisles, and of course… pet dog therapy… it was a great experience!
Until then, Cheers! ~ :p

This place is a zoo. Tons of travelers. Overall, not a bad airport, but not amazing either.
The good:
Clear signs. Easy to figure out how to get to diffferent terminals.
The not bad:
The food options
The tiring:
1. Having to go from terminal A or B to terminal E is a bit of a hike.
2. The A & B terminals are too narrow, so you feel a bit crammed at times.
Overall it isn’t a bad airport, but certainly not my favorite to transit.

I feel silly writing about an airport, but this one was really awesome! Beautiful, huge, super clean, tons of food options from your –can find everywhere in America fast food– to your more upscale bars and bistro food. We had a piano player, tons of outlets for your phones and bathrooms at every corner.
Charlotte’s airport make traveling and connecting a very smooth and agreeable experience :) thank you!

Easy enough connector for my overseas flight. Open type arrangement in the atrium, good dining selections. Oppressively warm (for December) in the terminal departing to UK though… someone open a window.

Infrequently have I had to literally run through an airport to make my connecting flight, but my American Airlines flight from Charlotte Douglas to Jacksonville offered me a work-​out unlike any I had had in a long time. My flight into the airport landed at 5:35 (with us being emptied out on to the tarmac itself); my connecting flight out of the airport left at 5:55. Considering it takes about 15 to 17 minutes to actually get off the plane once it lands, I had a little under — let’s say — four minutes to make it from Gate E8 to Gate D8.
So, considering I ran through the airport without many obstacles, I’m gonna say… four stars to you, Charlotte Douglas. Sure, one of the walkways was broken, I was beeped at by a golf cart, and your employees seemed less than impressed with my tardiness, but bygone I made my flight out. As I approached the gate — they were closing the doors — so I yelled «JACKSONVILLE?! IS THIS FOR JACKSONVILLE.» The extremely unimpressed lady working the counter took my ticket, scanned my barcode, and shoved the ticket back into my hand. Still without an answer, as I started walking down the tunnel to the plane, I kept yelling: «JACKSONVILLE?!» And finally Unimpressed Ticket Lady yelled back «YES!»
Okay then. Good.
But, from what I saw of the airport as it blurred past me was: rocking chairs, clean looking seating areas, some food options, and some bathrooms that I desperately needed to use but couldn’t.

Omg. This airport is huge. I mean huge. Tons of stores. So many food options. It’s better than many other airports for food, stores, cleanliness, and appearance.
But man oh man. It sucks hauling yourself from one end of the airport to another. There are no teams here. I got off at the tarmac at concourse E and has to run to the other side of the airport to concourse B. The long walk ways only help so much because you’re only as far as the person in front of you. No one files the signs on the escalators to walk left and stand right. It’s annoying. And then there are all the little vehicles transporting the handicapped. There nothing wrong with that, but it’s tough avoiding them in such crowded concourses.
Almost as important, there are few monitors for checking your connecting flight. I finally have up and had to go to a ticket counter. Sigh. During my while trip across the airport, I never once saw a monitor.
In sum, this is a fine airport to fly directly out of, but if you’re connecting here, it’s possible you’ll miss your connection just because you couldn’t hall yourself across the airport fast enough on your own two feet.

Of all the hubs I’ve loved, and goodness knows there have been quite a few, CLT ranks pretty high. There’s something wonderful about the miles of moving walkways that allow you to breeze through terminals with speed and swagger (minus that unusually visceral angst toward standers who don’t f’ing move to the f’ing right), and those charming Carolina rockers perfectly positioned near power outlets, and the pleasantly light-​filled atrium, and the free wifi, and just the realization that all of these things combined generally do make my layover a pleasant hour or two.
Some things that could make it better? More departure displays. I hate having to walk all the way to the eye of the storm just to learn that my next departure gate was two down from where I arrived. And how about a real mother’s room, not just an open, recessed area of the women’s restroom or a family restroom (read: you’re sitting on a toilet or on the floor for 20 minutes while angry people rattle the door knob).
Compared to the other nearby hubs (cough, ATL, cough) CLT is a dream come true, but we all have room to improve, hey?

Dieser Airport ist ein sehr angenehmer Platz, auch sehr sauber und gut Beschildert so das man alles sehr schnell findet. Auch toll sind die vielen Schaukelstühle in und um das Atrium in denen man schön entspannen kann und dem Treiben im Airport gelassen zu sehen kann. Es gibt genug Restaurants und Shops, so das jeder etwas findet. Durch seine Überschaubare Größe hat man hier sehr schnell alles im griff. Wir machen hier gerne Zwischenstation.

Gross, effektiv, schnell und kurze Wege. Das ist furmuns der Flughafen Charlotte, den wir 2 Mal im Jahr nutzen. Fur mich mein nach Las Vegas mein Lieblings Flughafen in den USA.
Er bietet nichts besonders, sondern ist einfach ein gut organisierter Flughafen, wo uns meistens unser Schwiegersohn runterholt denn er ist dort Air traffic Controller fg
Letztes Jahr den Rekord in der Immigratio aufgestellt: 15 Minuten und wir waren durch. Okay, wir saßen auch in Reihe 5 und waren dementsprechend schnell draußen aus dem Flieger.

Ich mag diesen Flughafen wirklich gern, aber nur auf dem persönlichen Beginden werde ich die Bewertung nicht Basieren, also zu den Fakten.
Dieser Flughafen besteht aus zwei Hauptterminals, die in der Mitte durch eine große Halle verbunden ist. Dort sind einige Geschäfte und zahlreiche Restaurants angesiedelt, so dass man noch kurz Souvenirs besorgen oder den großen Hunger vor dem Flug zu stillen.

haben nicht wirklich viel vom Flughafen gesehen, da wir dort lediglich zwei Mal umgestiegen sind. Allerdings hat die Einreise über 2 Std gedauert und der Anschlussflug schien gefährdet. Hat aber alles problemlos geklappt, auch wenn es etwas hektisch wurde

Unkomplizierter Flugplatz. Abfertigung läuft problemlos und schnell. Diverse Restaurants im Terminal, alles ist schnell zu erreichen.

einfacher Übersichtlicher Flughafen wenn man aus Deutschland kommt steht Sorger wo man hin soll auf Deutsch
an der Gepäckausgabe hapert sonn ein wenig dar die Business Passagiere den Gepäck gleich mit Economi bekommen

Uebrsichtlicher Flughafen, man wartet nie langer aufs Gepaeck.
auch ist man schnell mit dem Shutllebus bei den Mietwagenfirmen.
Hier fliege ich gerne hin, durch, etc

Ein Flughafen der recht einfachen Wege. Für LH-​Flieger recht unproblematisch. Die Autovermietung liegt recht einfach zu erreichen, wenn auch die Warteschlange recht lang war. Der Parkplatz der Autovermietungen ist mittels kostenlosen Busshutle zu erreichen. Das Duty-​Free-​Angebot im Wartebereich ist nicht sehr üppig, so dass man sich schon vor dem Flughafen mit Mitbringsel versorgen sollte. Raucher und Spirituosenkäufer kommen aber zu ihrem Kauf, sollten die Wünsche nicht zu exotisch sein.

Principal aeroporto da Us Airways. Imigração mais rapida que Miami. Aeroporto grande, mas organizado. Vale a pena chegar por aqui.

Für mich ‘der’ Umsteigeflughafen in den USA.
Kurze Wege, freundliches Personal, und da es von noch nicht allzu viele Long-​Distance Verbindungen gibt, nie so voll an der Immigration wie an den bekanntesten Airports (z.B. Chicago, Miami, New York)

Ich bin in Charlotte umgestiegen und das wenige von dem was ich auf meinem Durchlauf gesehen habe hat mir sehr gefallen. Das Gate zu dem ich musste war sehr leicht und schnell gefunden da die Wege gut ausgezeichnet waren. Ich habe es tatsächlich in meinen 5 Minuten Aufenthalt geschafft von einem Gate zum anderen zukommen.

schöner Umsteigeflughafen: Viele restaurants und geschäfte, Schaukelstühle mit steckdose nebendran im Zentralbereich und gratis WLAN für alle.

Ein wirklich schöner und sauberer Flughafen. Ganz besonders haben mir die Schauckelstühle im Zentralbereich gefallen. Vorher nen Snack und dann in den Stuhl so muss es sein. Stress kommt hier keiner auf da er sehr überschaubar ist und die Wege zu den Gates nicht allzu lang sind.
Für mich einer der schönsten Flughäfen in den Staaten.

der flughafen in charlotte ist für mich der schönste international flughafen an der ostküste der usa. man kann alles schnell erreichen. der flughafen ist sauber, das kulinarische angebot reichhaltig. überall stehen bequeme schaukelstühle zum relaxen. leider ist das nur das drehkreuz von us (chaos) airways. mit europäischen linien fliegt man meistens anders.
