 Charlotte Douglas International Airport by b1bob Charlotte Douglas International Airport is one of the hubs for U.S. Airways. Lufthansa, United, Delta, Air tran, American, ATA, and Continental all fly out of there. This airport can fairly be described as the launching point of all of acemj's excellent adventures, whether they be routine visits to his sister in Philadelphia or to some foreign trip.

by acemj Charlotte was among the most expensive destinations in the country, mostly because of the virtual monopoly that US Airways had on the local market. However, in the summer of 2002 a low-cost airline carrier entered the market and is now providing some much needed competition. Most of their flights go through Chicago, but the prices are great.

 at the airport bar by acemj Charlotte's airport is the biggest one in the Carolinas and is a major hub for US Airways. The airport code is CLT. It's the 17th busiest airport in the country and the 35th busiest in the world. Inside the airport you'll find shops, restaurants and ATMs (cash machines) as well as some trademark rocking chairs and musical entertainment. When you go downstairs to baggage claim, you'll see rental car agencies and if you step outside, there will be a cab waiting if you need one. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

by acemj Charlotte is a hub for US Airways and they fly to and from Charlotte more than any other airline. Hopefully, their recent financial woes won't spell disaster for the airline and they will be able to continue being a viable business. Leave a Comment

Things might have changed. But when I went to Charlotte, there were no discount flights. It worked out cheaper to fly into Raleigh and rent a car. Charlotte airport seems pretty busy - but pretty un-inspiring. Theme: Airplane

Charlotte has long been one of my favorite American airports. Though the city of Charlotte has never been my final destination or the starting point for a trip, I have had numerous layovers here over the years. I especially like the central terminal area with the large circular bar, the rocking chairs overlooking the flight line, the huge glass windows and often live music. Charlotte is one of US Airways' main airports on the east coast. Leave a Comment

The Charlotte airport is one of the nicer airports I have been through. Small with plenty of things to do. The main hallway is full of restaurants and shops. Theme: Airplane

Please make sure that you do not travel with Delta Airlines. I did recently and instead of sending my luggage to New York they sent it to Atlanta and two weeks later I still have nothing and no one in Delta with deal with it. They don't reply to faxes, emails or phones. Watch out - do not fly with them Theme: Airplane

 Charlotte Amtrak station by b1bob Charlotte's Amtrak station is located just 2 miles north of uptown Charlotte. Built in 1968 as Southern railway consolidated its passenger and freight operations, the station was hard-pressed to accommodate the growth in passenger and freight traffic. A whole new station is in the works closer into town (near Ericsson Stadium). In the interim, Amtrak and NCDOT (North Carolina Department of Transportation) worked together to expand the waiting room, add a new ticket window and a new restroom. For my first southbound trip on Amtrak (when I was at university, I would take the train north to Washington or Alexandria to get back to university after a weekend here), I took the Carolinian from Richmond through Petersburg, Virginia; Rocky Mount, Wilson, Selma, Raleigh, Cary, Durham, Greensboro, High Point, Salisbury, and Kannapolis, North Carolina through to Charlotte. The Carolinian has an interesting feature. Volunteers from the North Carolina Department of transportation supplement the Amtrak staff by helping people- rather like railroad neighbours. They get on at Rocky Mount and stay for the duration of the trip. On the way down, I saw evidence of the December, 2002 ice storm where the pine trees were still bent double as of 21 March 2003. As we approached Raleigh, the conductor shouted, "Raleigh world!" I took that opportunity to snap the Raleigh skyline to supplement the intro to my pathetic Raleigh page. At that stop, a bunch of fourth graders, their teachers, and some chaperones boarded the train and converged on my car like I would a plate of egg rolls. The plans I had for a nap at least through the tri-cties area were gone with the wind. Leave a Comment Theme: Train
