CHARLOTTE, N.C. – TSA Checkpoint 2 at Charlotte Douglas International Airport will open Monday, March 24 for limited passenger screenings. “The opening of Checkpoint 2 is a major milestone in the Terminal Lobby Expansion project, as streamlining security checkpoints from five to three while inc reasing capacity will provide passengers with a faster, more efficient screening experience,” said Jack Christine, CLT’s Chief Infrastructure Officer. The checkpoint will become fully operational on Wednesday, March 26. Following its opening, Checkpoint A will permanently close later next week. Checkpoint 2 will be the main screening location for TSA PreCheck and flight crews.

With the added lanes, TSA expects to process an additional 600 passengers per hour. Charlotte Douglas saw a record 58.8 million travelers in 2024. ...read more read less
