March 25, 2024 – It’s no April Fool’s joke. CLT’s Airport Volunteers are changing uniforms on April 1.
Their bright yellow shirts are out, and bright blue vests are in.
The clothing manufacturer no longer makes the hue of yellow that volunteers have worn for over 10 years. That created the opportunity to refresh volunteer uniforms. The vest color happens to match the royal blue in CLT’s new wayfinding signage.
This is the third uniform change for Airport Volunteers who are their 19th year at CLT.
Airport Volunteers assist passengers with wayfinding, answer questions and provide restaurant recommendations.
Currently, CLT has 55 Airport Volunteers and is looking to add more soon with training beginning this summer.
If you’re interested in becoming an Airport Volunteer, email volunteer@cltairport.com for more information. Positions are filled as openings become available. Applicants receive 24 hours of training and undergo security screenings and background checks.
Program participants serve three, four-hour shifts per month.
