New lot to help ease traffic at Charlotte airport

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Charlotte-Douglas International Airport has created a new way for travelers to be dropped off and picked up.

The "Kiss and Fly Lot" is designed to help with holiday traffic.

Drivers can use Harlee Avenue to bypass busy terminal roads.

Passengers can use the shuttles from a long-term lot to get to and from the terminal.

The lot is open from 6 a.m. until 10 p.m. every day through Jan. 3.
