Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) receives mixed to largely negative recent traveler reviews, with many describing it as overcrowded, chaotic, and disorganized. While some appreciate certain amenities, overall satisfaction appears to be below average, as indicated by a 15th place ranking among 20 "mega" airports in J.D. Power's 2024 North America Airport Satisfaction Study. Ongoing construction is a significant factor contributing to traveler frustration.
Overall, Charlotte Douglas International Airport is undergoing significant expansion, but this has led to considerable passenger inconvenience. While it offers a good selection of food and generally clean restrooms, travelers should be prepared for crowded terminals, potential long waits at security and customs, and a challenging experience with parking and navigation due to ongoing construction and high passenger volume. Booking parking in advance and allowing ample time for connections and security are highly recommended.
