Charlotte Douglas International Airport consists of 1 main terminal and 6 concourses. The concourses are all past security and within walking distance of each other, so there is no need to take a train or shuttle bus to get to your gate.

A looping road system, outside of the main terminal, connects the airport to the parking lots, car rental center, and the major highways and interstates leading to Charlotte and beyond.

Main Terminal

The main terminal is the central body of the airport and consists of 3 levels. Level 1 is baggage claim with tunnel access to the car rental center and hourly parking deck adjacent to the terminal.

Level 2 is check-in and ticketing with 5 security checkpoints leading through to the departure concourses. Level 3 is the mezzanine level with a USO lounge, chapel, and nursing room.

Concourse A

Concourse A has a total of 19 gates split across 2 areas. Gates A1 to A8, and A10 to A13 are closest to the main terminal and gates A21 to A25 and A28 to A29 are further north of the airport accessible via a connector with moving walkways.

Security checkpoint A is the closest to Concourse A on the west side of the terminal and there is a good selection of shops and restaurants in the north and south concourses, as well as in the connector.

Final Thoughts

CLT acknowledges that it is operating almost at maximum capacity and is in the midst of many renovation projects to expand and enhance its facilities.

With a phased approach, new developments are due to be launched yearly through 2026, with some recent evidence of expansion of the terminal lobby. When fully complete, the full terminal expansion project will provide 3 large security checkpoints, pre-security concession spaces, charging stations, and new ticketing counters.

I am traveling from Barbados to Toronto Canada through Charlotte. We have a layover of several hours at the airport. We will be on American Airlines. My question is will we be allowed to remain inside an area in the airport so we do not have to go through security to catch our connecting flight?

- Jarrod West March 22, 2021
  
  Hi Lillian,
  
  Since you are traveling from an international destination, you will first need to clear customs, and then you will be required to go through security once you get to the terminal your flight will be departing from. Unfortunately, there is no way around that.

I will be traveling with my mother who can walk from the plane to the terminal with her cane, but cannot walk the distance to our connecting flight, which historically has been in a different terminal. Does CLT provide shuttle rides between gates/terminals? Is a reservation required or a telephone # to call when landing?

  Hi Peg,
  
  Yes, if you call CLT accessibility assistance at 704-359-4038 they will be able to get everything squared away for you. Safe travels!

  Yes, if you are not being permitted to check-in online then it seems you will need to finalize your check-in at the airport.

I’m flying through CLT from Connecticut to Turks & Caicos. They have a pre-approval process I’ll be completing beforehand. When I get to CLT on the way to TC, do I need to pick up my baggage and re-check it? What about on the way back from TC to Connecticut?

  Hi Tristen,
  
  You should not have to re-check your bags when you arrive to CLT from Connecticut, but you will need to on the way back since you’re flying in from outside the country. Safe travels!

It would be helpful to know the length of each concourse and/or how long it takes to get from one gate to another. For example, what is the distance between gate D13 and E32? Thank you.

  Hi Karin,
  
  Not necessarily, it depends on the airline you are flying.

We are traveling OMA to DUB via CLT, with a lengthy layover.
We have Conditional Approval for Global Entry, but have been unable to secure an Interview locally.
During our layover in CLT, will we be able to perform the interview at the Enrollment on Arrival at CLT?

  Hi Tom,
  
  If the office has availability for that day, then yes you should be able to. Safe travels!
