Charlotte Douglas CLT Airport Overview

Charlotte Douglas International Airport CLT, North Carolina's primary airport, and often regarded as an alternative to Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport, has recently made the list as one of the top ten airports in the U.S.

The Airport is located about five miles from the financial district of the city of Charlotte, North Carolina, and is situated near the border of the North & South Carolinas, accessible from Interstate Hwy. 485, connecting to I-85 and I-77. There is a new interchange on the West Blvd. & I-485.

With four long runways and an estimated 38.2 million passengers a year, Charlotte Douglas International Airport is currently US Airways' largest hub (operating out of Concourses C, D & E), and is served by a host of major airlines offering direct and connecting flights to all parts of the globe. Seasonal service to Madrid, Dublin & Sao Paulo have been added.

Charlotte Douglas Airport has one large main passenger terminal, with Concourses A through E. In the center of the  main terminal' departure level is the the Atrium and a ticketing & departures area with 4 security checkpoints, with access  to the concourses. (For detailed terminal information, click on 'Terminal Map'.)

Parking options at Charlotte Douglas Airport: Parking facilities offer one of the Country's lowest daily rates, and are arranged within the circle drive and outside of it. (For detailed parking information, click on "Airport Parking".)

To get from Charlotte Douglas Airport to your destination you have the option of renting a car, taking a taxi or limo, bus, or one of the shuttle services available. Keep in mind that all ground transportation is located on the curbside at the lower baggage claim level of the terminal, except CATS buses (Tel: 704-336-7433), which pick up in front of Zone D ticket claim. You can prearrange shuttle service by contacting one of the providers listed on the Visitor Information boards located in Baggage Claim, which also includes a listing of licensed transportation companies providing transportation pick-up at the Airport. Note that limousines, Sedans and Contract Van services are available only by pre-arrangement.

Future Airport Developments: Expansion of the Terminal's east side will add 56,000 sq.feet of space and another security checkpoint, all to be completed by 2012.  Groundbreaking starts soon on the expansion of the Arrivals & Departures areas and the curbside; hourly parking decks will be replaced by a parking garage.
Furthermore, construction of a new International Terminal is to start in 2012, and a transport system will connect thereafter terminals, garages & rental car center, and later to the light rail.

    A recent introduction at Charlotte Airport of the full-body scanner, which either malfunctioned or the use of which immigration personnel was not familiar with, caused a long delay

    I reached Charlotte Airport Nov. 10 from New Bern Fly UsAirways 4227. At the New Bern Airport there were no seats the luggage officer sent me to pass the security so that I could get a seat. I left my luggages to him who tolm me do not bother, he was sending it to my final destination in Genoa, Italy. I got a seat ans saw my luggages on board but the man did not gave me tha luggage tag. In Charlotte I saw my luggages (two pieces) downloaded from the plane but i could not find them at the carousel. I referresd to the LH Desk as I had to fly LH to Munich. They could not do nayrthing as I had no luggage tag. At Munich I had no time to look for my lugage as my fly to Genoa LH 429 was in time. At Genoa my luggage was lost and nobody could do anything for the lack of tag. It is can be possible that my luggage is lost in Charlotte ? the are one bag light brown a a duffles bly, green and tartan. Could you make reserches for me ? The luggages has my italian address on it. Thanks
