text: While nothing spectacular this airport gets the job done pretty quickly quietly I would consider this a walking airport because the concourses are pretty spread out So if you are on one end of the concourse expect a lengthy walk to get anywherennLike most airports depending on the time of day it can be either very busy or very empty I have never had to wait long at the security checkpoint but maybe I have just missed the rush I would suggest using the ticket kiosks instead of the real person behind the counters because the electronic kiosk is usually quicker if you are not checking in any bagsnnOne of the main problems with this airport is the parking They do not have enough especially during peak times of the year expect to pay a hefty daily fee once you do find a spot I would suggest getting someone to drop you off instead of leaving your car their if you have that optionnnSo Charlotte Douglas will not impress you with shops food or service but it also will not get in your way
