I've just got into CLT the other day with a companion that had not yet received his GE. From the moment we got into the immigration area it took us 60 minutes to clear it. Inefficiency at its best.
Thank you. I have a couple of questions, if I may.
1) Was this during the week or on a Saturday/Sunday?
2) How was security to access the gate for the connecting flight? In PHL, without APC kiosks, immigration was not that bad but the subsequent queue for the security checkpoint was a huge messy line and took almost longer than immigration.
