CLT reminds me of what CVG used to be- huge, hub of a major carrier, lots of concourses, plenty of dining options and most importantly delayed flights. CVG was notorious for flights not leaving on time and since Delta moved it's hub to Detroit it is like a ghost town. \n\nAnyway I digress- As others have stated there i...

The food options are spread out, expensive, and impersonal. The service at US Airways is impolite, and the entire experience is stressful. This used to be my favorite airport, but now I find it nothing but a hassle.

This airport is not the best.

I've been flying into Charlotte for most of my adult life ..... Mostly because flying into Columbia is so god awful expensive. It's always been a pleasant experience with no real hiccups ever. \n\nCurrent construction on the parking structure means parking further away and taking a shuttle.\n\nThe airport itself is co...

Tiny little airport that does what it needs to do - one could also fly directly into Atlanta and catch the shuttle out to Chattanooga, which I might do next time and avoid the joy of flying on a small plane. Taxi to downtown Charlotte is about $30

The one-star review nearly wrote itself as I stepped into an older portion of the concourse from the tarmac. Outdated fluorescent lighting, worn carpet and a limited number of obvious power outlets made a pending two-hour layover seem like it was going to be a short eternity.\n\n...then the airport all-call announced t...

Five years later, it's time to update my CLT review. Between 4/4/2009 and today, I've departed from or arrived at this airport over 100 times. I've also gotten a couple of gate passes to escort my daughter through security.\n\nCLT is still a good airport for layovers. Lots of restaurant options from a fancy wine bar to...

Easy to park at the long term lots and at a good rate. Security lines are annoyingly long for not that busy of an airport. Usually because they only have 1 scanner open at a time.

the airport has certainly grown over the last 10 years. great ambiance with the rocking chairs in the atrium for passengers that have a long wait between flights and do not wish to wait at their gate. continue to grow and hurry up and finish with the construction with the parking!!!

First time in Charlotte and the VPOTUS delayed my flights by more than fifty minutes. This time we encounter a bit of a jerk gate attendant from US Airways.

Avoid at all costs, especially if flying USAir. Customs was worse than JFK. THIS IS NOT the airport for international connecting flights. Completely understaffed for an excessively busy Sunday. Worst combination of southern efficiency and northern charm. Better to go through Miami.

On the plus side: for on time departures this is one of the best airports in the country. On the negative: it feels like a cattle feed lot, everything is done on the cheap. Cheap seating, no power outlets, cheap everything. It looks and feels second rate and second hand.\nAnother negative is the near 100% probability t...

Our company favors US Air, so we fly through Charlotte every once in a while. We've never flown in to stay, nor out. We've only made connections here. Much appreciated is free WiFi. All airports should be doing that. Rocking Chairs is a great place to chill if you have the time. When making a connection, however, food ...

Dear Charlotte Airport:\nWhy don't you pay your restroom attendants enough money so that they don't have to beg for tips?

Be patient. It's a nice airport but it does get chaotic. Scheduling seems to be random and gates get really busy with flights leaving right next to or across from one another.

I hate airports. They are like jails. Except you have to be arrested to get thrown out. \n\nCharlotte Douglas is better than most. There are rocking chairs, with accessible outlets near. Lots of food choice, including vegetarian. That is a nice change from the other airports.

Poor food quality. Ordered the burrito which was not rolled correctly so it fell apart almost as soon as I started to eat it. The guacamole tasted stale and had the wrong consistency. The food was fast though, which is really about all you can expect from an airport restaurant.
