With all the hassle of security and crying babies running around, I know airports these days are just not the greatest place to hang. But having been a seasonal business traveler, there are some airports that do stand out, and I must say Charlotte's airport is one of them.
Let's look at some of the pluses:
1. A good selection of stores to shop (I know it's not a mall, but gives shopping as a thing to do while waiting for your flight).
2. A good selection of restaurant and bars. Always good for those munchy attacks. You MUST try Bojangles chicken!
3. Spacious. Airports are often crowded and seem they don't have enough space to roam about.
4. US Airways Club - Amazing, with a smoking room (for those of us who smoke!).
On top of USAirways being a partner with United (my choice airline - I know, I know...they can suck it sometimes, but been very loyal to them!), this makes a stopover at Charlotte Douglas a smooth one!
