Best places to work at Charlotte Douglas International Airport

Best for laptop work

The best public work spots at CLT are usually the integrated-power seating zones in Concourses A, B and C, where the airport specifically lists built-in power and USB seating.

Best for calls

For short calls, quieter edge seating away from the busiest central waiting areas usually works better than packed connection banks and food clusters.

Best near power

If charging matters most, focus on the airport’s integrated-power seating in A, B and C, or the charging stations available across all concourses.

Best backup Wi-Fi

If the Wi-Fi splash page does not load or the connection feels unreliable, CLT’s own advice is to open a new browser window or refresh your current browser. Moving away from the busiest gate clusters also helps.
