What’s Happening at CLT - Land at CLT, Soar to New Heights

CLT launched its My CLT video series in April on the Airport’s social media platforms.

The videos highlight aviation employees, capturing in their own words - why they love working at CLT, as well as the benefits of being employed at the 7th busiest airport in the world.

Charlotte Douglas will be posting a new video every month with the tagline: Land at CLT, Soar to New Heights over the next few months.

Watch the first two videos of the My CLT campaign featuring Safety Management System Operations Manager Logan Moran and Security Operations Supervisor Terasia Arrington.

Destination CLT, the Airport’s $4 billion capital investment program, is on the move.

Terminal Lobby Expansion

The Terminal Lobby Expansion’s (TLE) west and east skybridges that will connect the Hourly Deck to the terminal will open this summer.

Other big news, the 146,000-square-foot TLE glass canopy is scheduled for a fall completion.

The $608 million TLE project is adding 175,000 square feet and renovating another 191,000 square feet of the terminal lobby. Construction will conclude in fall 2025.

Concourse A Expansion Phase II

Concourse A Expansion Phase II ceiling tiles, flooring, plumbing and electrical installation are nearly finished. Signage also is going up throughout the $241 million addition.

The 200,000-square-foot expansion is scheduled to open in September with seven Delta Air Lines gates, two Frontier Airlines gates and one common-use gate.

Fourth Parallel Runway

CLT has graded nearly 1 million of the 7 million cubic yards of dirt needed for the Fourth Parallel Runway. Grading will be on-going through this year, 2025 and wrap up by mid-2026.

Concrete paving will commence in 2025 and conclude in early 2027.

Marking, fencing, lighting and signage will start as early as 2025. The $1 billion runway remains on schedule for a fall 2027 commissioning.

New Overlook

You heard it here first. The new Overlook will begin welcoming visitors in June. The site includes two age specific playgrounds, picnic tables, a bus staging area, aircraft displays, restrooms and a memorial to US Airways Flight 1016.

It is located on Airport property just west of the previous location off Marshall Drive.

The approximately seven-acre site maintains the spectacular airfield, skyline and terminal views that locals and plane spotters have enjoyed for decades.
