Charlotte Douglas Airport Fix your Plugs
Had a three hour layover at Charlotte Douglas Airport. I had to try seven plugs at my gate before I found one that worked. And the one I found that worked had no place to sit as it was near a check in desk. So I had to sit on the window sill with a dead fly.

Do you mean "fix your outlets?" "Plug" is the male part at the end of your cord.
You might actually get some results by sending your complaint to the airport rather than a random post on the internet that they will never see.

I truly don't intend to be mean but CLT is an awful airport. Waaaaay too crowded, gates too close together, not enough seating, and too spread out. Reminds me of pre-2002 DTW before NW spent $4B on the new terminal... Going from the end of E to the end of C reminds me of the old end of F to end of C connections at DTW. Boarding at the end of B or C when it's busy is a disaster too...
Edited to add: reply a bit off topic but I had to get that off my chest since I am currently inflight and will be connecting there in a little over an hour :-)

Haven't yet seen a laptop with a decent screen & graphics processor that has a three hour life with CAD software or any numerically intensive processing running, seen plenty that die within an hour however. You might be fine with an excel spreadsheet and email, but some of us need heavy iron.

As this topic pertains to a specific airport, we'll move this to the more-appropriate South forum for further discussion. Thanks.
