Not as pretty as SFO, but definitely clean and friendly atmosphere. I dropped by here on a business trip and had an easy time navigating my way around. They say that most airports in America are configured the same way (ie. places to sit, places to eat, people coming and going) but not all are enjoyable to wait in. If ...

Get here early. Security is bi-polar. Either there is no line, or it's an hour. \n\nI would have given the airport 4 stars, but USAir is pretty much the major carrier here, and even with Star Alliance status, I couldn't get an ice cube in my water. Otherwise, very clean, and easy gate access

I like CLT for a \"bigger\" airport. Parking costs me $4 a day which is crazy cheap. THe food isn't bad, there are some decent stores, and cool rocking chairs. The secret to the security is check in on the end @ D+E. Barely ever a line and when there is it moves faster for some odd reason. Overall never had a pr...

Bottom line at the top: TSA is definitely nicer here but they need to work on dining options. Until that happens, your best would be chilis.\n\n--\n\nI fly through this airport a handful of times per year and not much ever really changes. Everyone is very friendly, the chilis is always popping no matter what time of da...

There is a Jamba Juice here. I like Charlotte's airport for two reasons only:\n1. There is a Jamba Juice that makes matcha there.\n2. While US Airways is awful, a hub is Charlotte and you can get virtually anywhere from Charlotte.\n\nWhy this airport is awful:\n1. It's hard to get between terminals (and by hard, I mean...

Any airport that US Airways calls a hub means that it is going to be a giant disappointment. The wifi lived up to my expectations. It was impossible to get on the wifi, and when I did, it just plain ole did not work.\n\nAlso, the bathroom I visited was a disaster. Three stars since it is a busy place and maybe next...

I feel like reviewing an airport is similar to reviewing my utilities provider. Unless I don't like hot water, it doesn't really matter what I think of their customer service.\n\nWith that said, I do like this airport, because it has lots of security checkpoints that work relatively smoothly, and plenty of different a...

Is there anything this airport doesn't have? I have changed flights here on several occasions and each time I fight the urge to stop at Cinnabon... That smell is dangerous. They have several restaurants, countless Starbucks, and even a few bars thrown in.

**Free Wifi** wins my heart every time. There aren't many charging stations but there are plenty of rocking chairs. I've been here a few times and I always enjoy my short layover here. There are a lot of Starbucks scattered throughout so have no fear, plenty of java here.

No, I don't come here often but: \n\nFor a larger airport, foot traffic flows pretty well from one concourse to the next and food choices are much better than other airports I frequent.

Charlotte Airport is the pits! Here's why:\n\nMAZE - this spot is huge and an absolute maze.

The international bag pick-up is sluggish and it is actually difficult t...

Recently I have flown more often than I used to, and thus have a better feel on how CLT measure up with other airports. So it's not the prettiest (far from being aesthetically pleasing to be honest), but it is efficient. Go down to Terminal E for TSA check point if the other ones are jammed up, but for the most part I ...
