Sept. 15, 2021 - More changes for entering and exiting the terminal begin next week as the Terminal Lobby Expansion enters into its next phase.

Due to construction moving to the east side (near Checkpoint E), the following door swaps will take effect Wednesday, Sept. 22:

  • Ticketing level: Door 3 will close. Center door will open. Doors 1 and 5 will remain open.
  • Baggage Claim level: Door 3 will close. Center door will open. Door 1 will remain open.

The Terminal Lobby Expansion (TLE) is a $608 million project that will transform the Airport’s entrance and create more space in Departures/Ticketing and Arrivals/Baggage Claim. Work is scheduled for completion in 2025. The TLE is part of Destination CLT, a $2.5-billion to $3.1-billion capital investment to accommodate passenger growth through 2035.
