  1. they are? i was just there like 2 days ago. plenty of food inside security in the AA concourses.
  2. The word is the xlr will be configured similar the the 321t with a bunch of lay flat, flagship first. Then business and some coach.
  3. So the South side of the old A is open, but nobody is using the gates, except Delta has one in use at the end. Has to be expensive having all these Gates sit empty.
  4. next time im there ill look around. the new old "a" looked like it was almost ready to open, at least from the outside, the cones and what not have been removed on the ramp.
  5. When the old control tower comes down, why not have a station there. Then it's just a short walk to the terminal.
  6. Looks good. Do we know when the terminal roads will finally be done? Or when A will be done?
  7. Interestingly the new A Gates have parking lines for the 330 or other heavies. Might see more departures from there...
  8. This is super true. Also I was thinking the other day...CLT does about 700 flights a day and DFW does 900. DFW has double to space there, between runways and what not. Charlotte, could, probably won't do more flights than DFW after the new runway is in. Which is NUTS.
  9. Sounds like they have a plan. If they do in fact end up with the intl departure dates on A concourse I would bet the next or newest lounge would be there.
  10. upstairs in the new terminal there appears to be 1000s of sq feet that are unused. i refuse to believe that second floor was only meant to have a starbucks and a few toilets.
  11. 2 way traffic at the end of the concourse. I would guess mid field and e concourse replacement would net more Gates
  12. Anyone know when the construction for the E concourse expansion is supposed to begin? I feel like they said it was going to done this summer, but it hasn't even begun?
  13. Labor here in the South is a joke. Things move like set concrete around here...
  14. my guess would be the end of the summer. certainly after they complete the pick up/drop off construction.
  15. North. Just like the first expansion. Should look the same too.
  16. Yes I am. The connector was supposed to have Gate halfway down. It's in the animation. And the scale model that's in the sitting area in the connector.
  17. They could also put a bridge in the middle between both concourses. Where that open seating area is... And Bam new gate. Plus it was already on the plans and the model that's in that seating area.
  18. world's cheapest bidder. figured out they could do the work with them on. and thusly underbid the contract i'm sure.
  19. The suggestion was to have departures taxi about 3 miles to 36L or 18R. It already takes 20 minutes or more to taxi in from that runway. It would be long and unnecessary to taxi like that. The other suggestion was to not build another runway. This doesn't make sense because Charlotte is already very busy on the 3 it normally uses, with continued growth. We need the new pavement.
  20. Because that would be a long unnecessary taxi for departures. Separately, the 4th parallel went only help with departures but should help the flow of arrivals as well.
  21. It'll be nice to see something other than the 330s in Charlotte
  22. Any word on Lufthansa changing their equipment in Charlotte? Thought I read somewhere the 330 would be replaced by the 350?
