Charlotte, a visitor-friendly city in the US state of North Carolina, is located very close to the border with South Carolina and was named after Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg, England. The city is second only to New York in the US in terms of financial importance, as many of the country’s banks have their headquarters here. But perhaps more importantly, Charlotte offers a fast developing tourist industry and a number of exciting entertainment options.

Charlotte Airport is a fairly small single-terminal facility. There are two levels from where all departures and arrivals are serviced. International flights arrive from European cities and Canada while domestic flights are received from all across the US. There are a number of restaurants throughout the terminal as well as banking facilities, ATMs, shops, a business centre and information desks.
