The most recent report from CLT shows no wait times (Mon Mar 23, 10:30 PM). A traveler passing through that morning experienced minimal delays at security screening.
The day before, a traveler reported exceptionally fast processing, with under 1 minute wait times for TSA PreCheck (Sun Mar 22, 10:20 PM). This passenger flew both EWR-CLT and CLT-EWR and experienced no line at either airport, suggesting favorable conditions over that period.
Based on these recent reports, conditions at CLT appear manageable. If traveling soon, arriving 30–45 minutes before your domestic flight departure should be sufficient for general security lines, or 20–30 minutes for PreCheck. Monitor live wait times at tsa.gov closer to your travel date, as conditions can shift quickly.
