I'm not a frequent flyer and this was my first time at CTI. If at all possible, I will not come this way again. I walk with a walker and at other airports I have been given some accomodation, but not here. No one asked if I needed assistance and I was assigned a seat in the very last row of the plane. I know this was probably the airline ' s fault but it still sucked. Also, the airport claims to have free wi- fi but I couldn't get access while in terminal E.

Crazy long walk from gates, no signage for baggage claim

CLT Continues to grow and expand services and accessibility
Yes, there's a currency exchange next to the E baggage carousel in the baggage claim/arrivals area. There are also two more in the main atrium next to the sushi bar and on the D concourse as you pass gate D1.
Your gate letter and number (D12 as an example) is on your ticket. Only 1 plane per gate at a time. Just wait outside of your gate area, and when your plane arrives at the gate, board as instructed.
Depends upon airlines. Check city flight to airlines and baggage claim. Wait in car have them call when land and meet you at concourse they will be grabbing luggage. Hope that helps.
I just returned from a trip out of the country at the end of January, and my NJ driver's license was sufficient. RealID will be the requirement at some future point, and you can possibly Google it to find out, of check the DHS website. Have a good trip.
Yes it is definitely possible to find your gate in an hours time. Just be mindful that the departure time for an aircraft and the boarding time, are different. If you show up at the departure time, you will not get on the plane.
The options may be priced differently for a product. The same bottle of Pure Leaf Tea had a cost that was different between two store fronts. Avoid "impulse buying" if you plan to visit more than one shop. (Fact found 7-18-2021)
Yes, if you follow the signs. Feels chaotic at best. With airlines cutting back on flights time for connections are difficult. I would wear sensible shoes because you may have a brisk walk if not run to the next gate.
You can use the private suites by the main concourse.. around the Starbucks if you dont want to leave the airport grounds for an Hotel..it is behind the piano you won't miss it!!
I don't know how the weatherin Charlotte is going to be. I was just passing through so I can't give you an answer. Google the Charlotte weather and it will tell you.
Pet Relief Areas are located inside the terminal (post-security) on the A/B Connector (near Checkpoint A), on the Concourse A Connector (between Gates A1-A13 and A21-A29) and on Concourse D near Original Rum Bar and Grill.
I think you should start by contacting the City of Charlotte. If that does not work try these important names.

Yes, you can either park in the airport deck or use the valet service. Valet is much more expensive. If you are just dropping off or picking up you must be quick but you must judge that on your own. There are people who pull to the side but I guess it would depend on the security people on how quick they run you off.
Check with your airline if they will provide overnight hotel stay for you. If not, there is a service called Minute Suites inside CLT airport which provides overnight accommodations. Rooms are small, and rates are a bit high, but it's better than sleeping in a chair. Minute Suites is located near the Atrium area between Terminals B & C.
Lost luggage is an airlines issue, not airport. Contact the carrier, usually best to do so on line, have your flight number, ticket / locator number and bag tag # that you were issued. The carrier site will normally have a posted link with Phone #s to contact them and how to submit for the lost luggage. AA has lost my bags several times but has been excellent in getting them to me within 24 hours, this has only happened when traveling away from home and logistics kept moving from town to town with work.
Just came from Costa Rica into Charlotte, recheckedbags. Why did we have to go through Security again? Why with pre TSA did we have to remove laptop and shoes? Had Duty Free packed in Costa Rica. TSA said it didn’t meet there requirements? Took it
Denise King | Sep 20, 2018
Steve Consultant | Sep 20, 2018
All true. None of the airport security groups trust each other. When I flew back from Switzerland, I had to pass through airpirt security four times (once in Switzerland, twice in Germany, and once in Philadelphia). The Duty-free thing is a catch-22 between import laws and TSA policy, and all the DutyFree shops know about it. The only way Duty-Free works is if your final airport is the first one you get to in the US. So it works if you are only flying to CLT, not if you are flying to CLT and then PHX.
Absolutely NOT! In CLT you must exit the building completely and go outside if you wish to smoke. They do have signs outside where smoking is allowed-usually at the end of the sidewalk. Keep in mind that if you leave the airport you will have to go through security again no matter where you are going. Very few airports let you smoke anymore; the only one I can think of right now is Tampa. Good luck!
Call ahead 4A SkyCap. They'll meetU @the plane door and takeU 2Ur nxt plane. It took me nearly 50min(my connection was onthe other side of the airport), but I stopt @the restroom.
TSA has strict rules about ID documents. A state ID, driver's license, passport, federal ID, ID issued by a government agency with a photo are examples of what may be acceptable. Not knowing what ID's are in your possession, no definite answer can be given. Check TSA website for details.
Follow signs for arrivals and pull up next to the curb! There will be a lot of other cars doing the same thing, including people picking up friends or individuals working with ride share apps. Signs should be fairly clear about where you go once you map to the airport!
What recruitment are you seeking? As the gentleman above me stated if by chance military, then yes your area is the best option. If it's employment, a staffing agency for professionals or whatever trade your in. Excuse the term but back 20 years ago they were referred to as "head-huntes" I worked for 3 of the best companies of my life. Good luck!
Always depends on ur to and from. From US to US no mask or VAX. US to another country check other country. Other country to US the US require a neg covid test and vac for return to US. These guidelines are always changing so check CDC website and ur airline. DONT ASSUME ANYTHING ALWAYS CHECK.

Yes, they have daily and hourly parking I believe. Because I parked there last week and will have to go back. Just follow signs it should be to your left. There is a charge for leaving your vehicle, I guess that would be in the daily parking side. I parked for less than 20 mins and was not charged in hourly.
What did you do when you discovered the iPad was lost, like Brandon said, time is of essence, with security alertness everywhere, it could be found and detained for destruction, also check other places you visited, it may be lying somewhere else. Let's know how far you have gone.
Call American Airlines or go to Aa.com, click on Booking Flights and fill out the boxes and click on search. I hope this information is helpful to you.
My experience yesterday was to go from Gate E-36 to Gate B-7, with a notified 45-minute layover. I'm in pretty good physical shape and speed walked the distance. By the time I reached B-7 they were already boarding my connect flight. Your 36-minutes will be a struggle if you're held up in the least.
Navigating the Charlotte terminal was easy even though this was my first time. Look up for way finding signs. It took us about 10 min to traverse the distance from gate A to gate C (which is exactly the same distance as your route) and we didn’t hurry. We hopped onto moving walkways to save wear and tear on a bad knee. We could’ve moved more quickly had we walked. You should be able to make it with minutes to spare.
Depends on the airline you choose. Read their luggage requirements. For example, Southwest allows you two free checked bags. All airlines have specific policies.
If she is under 18 they will guide her. I don't feel that it is a super huge airport but it does take a min of 11 mins to walk to most sections for a transfer. There are no trains or busses between terminals for transfer. Everything is labeled easily in my opinion compared to many airports I have been to.
Not sure, wanted to be sober for the flight but one of my friends got something to drink it was a little water down and that was I think about 9 or 10 sum.

I am not sure if the restrictions in place now will remain by September but right now there is no place to sit down and eat. All food is take out. Face masks do not appear to be mandatory. Overall airport volume is back to normal.
Not sure if that helps
Aaron is correct! I'd say arrive at least 1 Hr early just in case the check in counter is backed up or TSA has long lines. You don't want to have your name called "...please report to the gate!" Lol
The only place I remember seeing phones is in the stairwell heading to the d and e concourse but other than that I would choose a meeting place in the terminal to meet
On your reservation there should be a link for you to check luggage restrictions. Definitely check if you don't know. They are pretty standard I believe but I would check anyhow. They all have different
Weights they allow.
Plenty of time, especially if you are on an early or late flight. And, you have already been screened on your first flight as you wrote connecting flight in your question.Happy travels!!
CLT is a smoke-free facility; this includes all restaurants, bars and airline clubs. Smoking is allowed outside, 100 feet away from the terminal's doorway. Because the smoking areas are outside the terminal, passengers will have to go through TSA security screening before returning to the gate area.

Smoking in Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT)
I don't know if they allow dogs. I know of someone that travels with their dog and keeps it in a carrier when they fly. I don't know if the airport would allow, or has any rules about bringing dogs into the airport. I would call them to be sure before you go, and then they won't let you take the dog in.
It is in the main concourse, near B gate...
Always a line, usually correct with the order, but not always... They need about 5 of these things there...
Sorry! Dear I just went there for vacations I'm sorry I can't told u how this service work but I do believe so the public transportation system in that town can answer you better that question. My best wish u can find the answer. Stay safe and bless. Good day!😊
No. The airport is not open at night. Yes some late flights will land, but they have to deplane and leave the secure area. The food places close at 10pm and TSA closes a little later and opens back up at 4:30am.
(taken from the airport page) CLT is a smoke-free facility; this includes all restaurants, bars and airline clubs. Smoking is allowed outside, 100 feet away from the terminal's doorway. Because the smoking areas are outside the terminal, passengers will have to go through TSA security screening before returning to the gate area.
Of course, they are super friendly, they travel through AA and they have several employees who speak perfectly Spanish, but above all, they are super attentive.
Baggage claim is on the first floor while Delta inbounds is on the second floor. You can take an elevator from the first to the second floor, and it is around 5 minutes.
If you are flying a budget airline like Spirit or Frontier you may only bring a personal item that fits under the seat. Any other bags must be paid for. This also applied to basic economy tickets on American Airlines.
Hourly and daily are located closest to the terminal. Hourly gets 1 hour free. Beyond those are a cell phone lot and multiple long-term lots. There are additional parking companies off-site offering shuttle service.
No matter where you travelling TSA process is same regardless. If you meant to ask visa specific questions then if you are a US citizen then you do not need a visa
How do I get a ticket at 16? Do I get it offline or can I walk in and get it? I’m so confused, I was told I’m aloud to fly solo. But sites won’t let me buy it.

If your second flight is a US domestic flight then you will need to clear immigration and customs in CLT and check the bag again. Your airline should assist you in rechecking the bags.

If you're unable to find a place to sneak a drag in the airport, you can usually catch a smoke in the airplane lavatory, you'll just need to disable the smoke detector first.

Thank you, it's hard to find a good map of the CLT gates, but the one I did looked like there was security in front of C terminal specifically. Thanks again.
Of course, you should always have it in your carry on because if they lose your checked bag, you'll be without your pills. As an extra measure, I would put them in my personal item in case they gate check my rolling bag.
...Get a US passport or risk detentions and more questions than you will ever have time to answer.
Good "common sense" should tell you the times we are in!!!!
You have to return to the specific company. They will shuttle or drive you to terminal. That airport has been built in segments. So as they expanded there was not enough space to incorporate the rental car agencies into the parking deck out front.
......ARRIVALS.
is there any other option unless your an orange giant with fake blond hair and Barbie brunnet....a tax paid limo picks you up off the tarmac.
I know that E to B is 14 minutes by their calculations. I am not the fastest Walker in the world and I am challenged to walk that far that fast, LOL. Although there are many moving sidewalks there. As I recall, the doors close 10 minutes before schedule take off. So you would need a minimum of 25 minutes to be able to run the length of the airport once you deboard your first flight. I think. LOL

I do believe it would not hurt to bring it regardless. Always dot the T's and cross the I's. Definitely bring it, just in case! Also, reach out to the airline you have booked your flight with and ask. That would be my best bet!
I HIGHLY SUGGEST checking in as EARLY AS POSSIBLE to ensure TSA can and will appropriately accommodate your daughter.
I would also recommend calling the airline her flight is with and ENSURE THEY ARE ALSO AWARE. Your concern is valid, communicate as much as possible. I hope this helps and may your daughter have a blessed and safe flight.
I always prepare for layovers and delays in my carry on bag with medication and comfort items. I think Brady offers prudent advice in case you cannot find accommodations for payment.

That should be plenty of time. Google has terminal maps available too for CLT and the free wifi is a good backup for iffy service in the area. You should even have enough time to stop and grab a bite or a coffee

Michael Warren | Sep 20, 2018
James Baglini | Sep 20, 2018
A decision has not been made yet as to whether the airport will be open tomorrow. It depends upon many factors that will occur today. Your best option is to check the airport website early tomorrow morning or late this evening.
Charlotte is a major hub for American Airlines and their website says that the airport is open and flight operations are ongoing but you should check the flight status of your specific flight before you head to the airport.
If you tell the ticket counter they will put it on the ticket that the passenger needs assistance from gate-to-gate. But if you are traveling through Charlotte my suggestion is not to get off the airplane until the wheel chair arrives
Thank you !! I already asked, it does not exist in this airport, it is for any airline, a lounge that has Admiral Club characteristics, with fewer services
How long does it take to go from concourse B to concourse E??
Samuel Rennymon | Sep 20, 2018
Diana Nichols | Sep 20, 2018
Part of it depends on which gate you are coming from on B and which gate you are going to on E. Anyway the quickest would be under 10 minutes if it was B2 and E3. If you were at the farthest B16 going to the farthest E36 I would add at least 5 minutes. There are moving sidewalks in the Charlotte airport which helps. If you are flying in look at the back of the American Airlines magazine in your seat pocket and there is a map of the Charlotte airport. Also you can Google aa1234 (aayourflight#) and you should receive gate info. Most of the travel apps have excellent airport maps also. Good luck!
You need to contact American Airlines customer service number. You should be able to find their number on the website. If the customer service can't help you in your bag can't be relocated that I believe you can turn in the baggage claim. And you'll receive some compensation for the Lost bag.
They discontinued using carts in the CLT airport a few years ago. They were for handicapped and special needs folks anyway. Now they use only wheelchairs to help those people. If you are close to making your flight sometimes you can ask the flight attendant if you can move your seat on the flight to the front. Probably a lot of people on the flight have a connection. You just have to do your best to get to your next gate and if you don't make you go to the Special Services Desk and they will help you. Sounds like you made the flight though!
Without a ticket of your own to fly, you can not pass the security checkpoint into the secure area. If you want you can hire an escort for children. Cost on American Airlines is $150 additional and they will only assist them from the security gate to the plane and from the plane to the security gate exit. American Airlines does the best job with this, but it is from security gate to security gate. They will NOT get them to or from a cab, bus, limo, Uber, Lyft vehicle. Only to or from the security gate to or from the plane. After exiting from the secure security area on arrival the child is on their own.
Yes there are several foreign money changing booths at the CLT airport; one upstairs in the front of the airport outside security by the valet parking and at least two in the airport inside security (one near gates D1 and D2, the other in the area between concourse B and C where the rocking chairs and piano are.The exchange rate changes every day so you would have to ask the person working in the booth the rate. Good luck.
If you are flying in there should be a magazine in your seat pocket with a picture of the CLT terminal. Anyway E-5 to D-13 is maybe 5 minutes. You will go down the hall and up the escalator (follow the signs to D) and at the top of the escalator you will turn left and D-13 is in the rotonda very close. Also any airport/flight app has pictures of the airport terminals. You can also go to Google and type aa123 (as in aaYOURFLIGHT#). Good luck.

I do not believe you'll be able to carry it on the airplane and I don't know if it can be checked into the cargo like pets I would suggest that you call the airline you're flying on. That way you'll have the correct information.
sometime before I had laid over for overnight and I just go to my gate that I'm going to depart from and just sit there get on the floor and sleep do what you can
It's $150 fee for them to meet him at the exit of the plane and take him to the exit at security. They will not take him to a cab or bus, only to where the security check is. You can meet at that point. I just checked into it for my son and his trip to DC. We ended up driving him to DC, because they wouldn't escort him to the limo service that was picking him up and a few others up and the limo service wouldn't walk inside, neither would the cab service. IMHO For $150 they should take them to a cab and pay for the cab fare too, just my 2 cents. American Airlines was the best option out of all the airlines for unescorted kids.

Where do I get a visa for Cuba?
Jillane Moulden | Sep 20, 2018
Iain Fielden | Sep 20, 2018
Not from the airport. Usually visas are issued by the embassy of the country, or by a consulate if the country has consulates in the USA.
There is a charge for unaccompanied children. If the child is on their own you can't assume someone will be available to take the child to another gate if you don't pay for the service.
If you plan on purchasing a plane ticket at the airport you'll need your ID. Dont need it if you book online. But name has to match exactly as on your ID. They wont accept the paper.
It depends where the gates are and how far apart. The departing flight will begin boarding about the time you arrive. Its possible. Just know where you have to go.

Better call the airline and see what the requirements are. People take dogs all the time but airlines have different policies. I think they also charge.
Yes. Going through TSA check point, you may need to take it out and let it go through with other things but I and others take laptops through all the time. That fortunately is not a problem.
I will be using long trem parking and on my return my flight returns late. I there a shuttle available late?
You can safely book a flight with your smart in the airport. is only a question of whether space in the machine is and how much you are ready to spend the flight.

Cameras are allowed in carry on baggage. But subjected to TSA screening. It depends on how much battery capacity it has. If it's more than 1400 mah then needs to be detached and screened.
You could meet them there at gate only if you had a boarding pass, I don't think TSA would let you in there past the front without one. They could meet you out front, but like someone else said, theyd have to allow time for them to go through TSA and to their gate. So yes its possible to see them but only before TSA checkpoint. They would need to allow at least 45 min . to get back through. That airport is not the easiest one.
For sure yes you can stay waiting were they arrive and try wait near to the baggage claim more easy for you and for them, only take attention to have your cellphone charged

Going to fly out June 25th to San Francisco. Can I bring my own cigarettes with me?
There are a number of ways that the airlines can get you through security, but all of them are a major hassle for the gate agents. It helps to have status with the airline in question, and to go through during times of the day when they are not busy. Ve patient with the gate agents, and understand their perspective, be polite. It is also a good idea to phone the local airport office of the airline ahead of time *not* the reservation or helpdesk -- those can only give you the party line.
If you belong to an airline club then yes. Otherwise no. Note that they do have 1 day memberships, but they are expensive. Check with the club. Not all provide printing services.
As stated you would have to also clear tsa .not sure how you would do that without a airline ticket.besr check tsa website as this could be a huge issue.
I was worried abt this as well because I live in a non-compliant state. However, they have granted non-compliant states an extension to become compliant and our current state issued IDs and drivers licenses are being accepted. The current round of extensions expires October 10, 2018.
No. You'll need to contact the airline before bringing your weapon. To be safer, you'll need an email receipt of your conversation on this matter with the airlines. Also, visit TSA website on how to air travel with your weapon and follow their instructions.
I’m flying international and my boarding pass matches my passport. But my license has a different last name since I got married. Will I need to show my License and passport? Or just my passport with my boarding pass?

Try running a search for a flight. Just Google it. It will vary by date, length of stay, and such.
What type of transportation do you have for seniors within the airport, like carts or wheel chairs?
Janet Mudrak | Sep 20, 2018
Kristin Crowley | Sep 20, 2018
When you arrive at the airport at your carrier tell then you need assistance. They will assign an individual to helo transport you or your loved on to the gate via wheelchair including onto the plane. They will also make a note in the system so that there is someone waiting at the arriving facility to helo deboard the plane and provide the same level of assistance needed.
Despite the long list of regulations for air flight, the TSA is less strict on the topic of travelers' medications. Travelers are permitted to carry only 3.4 ounces of liquid in their carry-on bag, but the TSA does not limit the amount of liquid medication you can carry onto a plane. Other medication, including pills and vitamins, are also permitted in your carry-on luggage in unlimited amounts.

What lounges can I use at Douglas Charlotte airport city with my dragon pass please

Is the airport closed
Sharon Queisser | Sep 20, 2018
Kristin Crowley | Sep 20, 2018
Airports rarely close. Unless there is a situation in the airport that warrants the airport to be shutdown an airport will remain open. That said, airports will ground air travel if warranted usually due to weather.
Since it's hard to determine from your question what day you posted this, I'm going to guess that CLT may have grounded air traffic to arrivals and departures due to winter storm Grayson. Individuals who were at the airport would be allowed to remain. Those who were not would still be allowed to arrive at the airport and clear TSA. However anyone who chose to leave past the TSS check point would have to re-clear TSA before returning to their gate for their departure.
I myself after brain surgery needed ride assistance I set it up as I booked the flight online. There's an area that you can mark for ride assistance on the bottom your reservation. But also you may ask the ticket booth and they'll have a chair for you ASAP. They were ready for me out of every gate I was going to Virginia and back to see my grandson and daughter. Good luck to you Happy New Year.
The airport is almost always open. The only reason an airport would close is because of some very unforeseen circumstances. However that doesn't usually close an airport it just grounds flights. For example, severe weather systems can ground flights but the airport would remain open.
Hi Lopez, I recommend you travel with frontier airlines or spirit airlines if you want a cheap flight
Frontier is more comfortable compared to Spirit
Unaccompanied Minor. What happens if while in route one of the flights is cancelled?
roland guay | Sep 20, 2018
Kristin Crowley | Sep 20, 2018
The airline carrier will be in contact with you or emergency contact and begin to rebook the minor on the next available departure to their destination. They will not leave the minor unaccompanied at any time during the trip. They will also contact whomever is picking up the minor regarding the situation and changes to their travel. If on the rare circumstance an overnight stay is required the airline will provide accommodations as well as meals and supervision. Parents and guardians will be kept up to date on the situation.

3.) Requires special assistance.
Why doesn’t Charlotte airport have a pet releif area inside security. They have the Canine Crew program, do these dogs have to go outside security to relieve themselves???
Steven Sena | Sep 20, 2018
Glenn Hanna | Sep 20, 2018
There is a pet waste station near the entrance to concourse D with a fire hydrant on grass with a trash can and baggies available.
You would have to call the airline and ask for a gate pass, however this varies from airport to airport and carrier to carrier. You may only be able to escort him to TSA where they will have someone escort him (if necessary in a wheelchair or other form of transportation as needed) to the gate and onto the airplane. Upon arrival there will be someone from the airline waiting for him and will escort him to whoever is picking him up. He would not be alone if that is your concern. They would have this tracked in the system and they will be waiting for him on both ends of the flight.
The official TSA rule is that it's not permitted at all, regardless of if it's legal in the state you're coming from or flying to or even if it's medical. That being said it is somewhat of a gray area and there's a chance that you could get it through, the risk is up to you.
If my temporary ID is expired can I still fly with a social security
Shalexis Covington | Sep 20, 2018
Glenn Hanna | Sep 20, 2018
Social security is not on the list of approved TSA id's but even without an id if they can determine your identity via questions and electronic verification you may be allowed to fly but it will certainly take a lot longer.
Does anyone know the height clearance for the parking deck
For domestic flights TSA recommends you arrive at least 1 hour before scheduled boarding. For international flights the recommendation is at least 2 hours. This does not include parking time. Boarding tends to be 30-45 minutes before departure. If you are checking luggage you may want to add additional time depending on how busy it is.
If you are traveling during peak travel times (ie - holidays or school vacation periods) you woi want to give yourself extra time as libes to clear TSA will be longer.
I lost my parking ticket.. was gone day and a half ... wat do I do❓
Harold Sorensen | Sep 20, 2018
Kristin Crowley | Sep 20, 2018
According to the CLT website's FAQ on parking it says you should drive to the toll plaza where a parking attendent will assist you. Or customer service representatives are stationed outside the terminal's lower level (Arrivals/Baggage Claim) in the shuttle bus lane. Good luck.

Park in the cell phone lot until you are ready to pickup your passengers.
There is a special pickup zone in Zone D for Lyft and Uber drivers. You will find it clearly displayed on the columns in Zone D.
When I park inn long term, I'm going for a week, how do i get to American airlines to check my bag? Is it a long ways off?
Becky Dishinger | Sep 20, 2018

You take your bag with you. There are bus shuttles that will pick you up at the parking area with luggage racks then rake your bag inside and check it at the ticket counter.
Where is there a pet area at Charlotte's Airport?
Patti Trites | Sep 20, 2018
Tommy Taylor | Sep 20, 2018
Yes there are 4. Two are outside the terminal on each side, Zone A and Zone E in the arrival area.
Inside there are also two. One behind 1897 Market in the connector between concourses A & B. The other at the entrance on D concourse behind the Coca-Cola kiosk.
Inside they are large steel platforms with astro turf and a red fire hydrant.
Why was via air flight 1181 diverted this evening it was scheduled charlotte to KLWB and when checking status it left charlotte at 613pm and then diverted back to charlotte
I don't remember a specific area but I'm not a smoker. The airport is accommodating to all other aspects of travel, so I'm sure they've taken it in to consideration . Hope that helps, and that you have a positive experience.
To get through security, you need to present a boarding pass. There may be some alternate pass that you could obtain to permit you to enter. The easier option may be to have ypur parents exit and then return for the flight.
Is expensive to leave your car parked for 10 days ?
Ruben Benitez | Sep 20, 2018
Tommy Taylor | Sep 20, 2018
Depends on where you park your car and your budget. Check the airport website for parking locations and prices. There are off site parking available also at Park and Go across from the airport.
Electric carts were removed from service in April 2017 due to multiple complaints that they were unsafe in the crowded airport.
PROSPECT is a 3rd party company contracted to walk wheelchair, unaccompanied minors and other special assistant passengers from gate to gate. But due to staff shortages , irregular operations and other factors they may not always be available in a timely manor. Best to allow extra time between flights.
Make sure you notate in your reservation prior to coming to the airport that special assistance is needed to speed up the process. Do not wait until boarding, it may not be available.
Not in Charlotte. You must exit the secured area and come back security with a boarding pass and all baggage and belongings.
The smoking areas is in Zone A & E outside baggage claim
There are a couple Bank of America ATMs located in the secured area. One in the main atrium between concourses B & C behind the sushi bar. Another on Concourse E across from the AA Special Service Desk past gate E9.

Checkin should ALWAYS be done 24 hours to your departure time. If you wait until you arrive at airport or even the gate your seat may no longer be available and will be placed on the next available flight or alternative city.
Are there pet relief stations inside the airport? If so, where can they be located?
Elaine Lersch | Sep 20, 2017
Tommy Taylor | Sep 20, 2018
Yes. There are four.
Two are outside the airport terminal on each side in the arrival areas of Zone A and Zone E.
Two are located inside. One of the connector between concourses A and B behind 1897 Market. The other is at the entrance on D concourses next to the Coca-Cola kiosk.
Flight to Minneapolis
Corey Sch | Sep 20, 2017
Tommy Taylor | Sep 20, 2018
Yes Charlotte flies to Minneapolis non stop. Check with airlines for scheduled times and availability
This is a very vague question. Thursday what day, what month, what year?
Doesn't matter if all flights are on schedule or not. The only flight that matters is the flight you are on.
Things happen, weather, maintenance, crew. If the flight is delayed the agent working the flight will let you know. Or if you signed up for messaging the airlines will text you about delay.
This question doesn't make sense. There is no 319 or 320 at the airport. If you need connecting gate information asking the gate agent at the gate you arrived or check the departure screen
SERIOUSLY PEOPLE!!! Do not post these questions on this site. Contact the airlines directly or better yet, go the gate and wait so you don't miss any valuable information or your flight.
AA operates flights on 4 concourses. Depends on which gates you are connecting. Boarding begins 30 minutes prior to departure. There could be delays. Some carry ons do get valet checked which could mean more time especially on the larger aircraft.
Travel lightly and allow more time when booking your flights
There are 2 lost and found depending if the items were lost on the aircraft or at the airport. Contact your carrier for the correct way to report, file a claim or retrieve a lost item.
