Are you able to leave your concourse you are flying out of?
I have never been in a large airport, so I don't know the answer to this. I'm flying out of Charlotte-Douglas International Airport in Charlotte, NC. My flight is taking off at Concourse D. After you have been through security (metal detector, baggage check, etc.) are you able to move to different concourses? I don't know how it works. This question may sound stupid I know.

In CLT u can, but that isnt true in every airport. Here is a map of the airport

once you've checked your baggage in, they'll tell you what terminal to go to. Once you pass through the metal detector towards your gate, it's best to play it safe and stay at the terminal your gate is at. There's nothing of interest at the concourses, they're pretty much set up the same w/similiar stores, etc.

Hello, That's an interesting question. Actually, it depends on the airport, particularly the locations of the security checkpoints. Based on looking at a terminal map of CLT, you can move throughout different terminals after passing through security. The terminals are all interconnected after the security checkpoint. You cannot, however, go back to the ticketing area unless you pass through security again. Happy flying!

Depends on the airport. Some can, some cant. Charlotte can. All of the concourses are behind the same set of security checkpoints (there is only one area to get in if you know what i mean) You can do it as long as all the concourses are connected after security. If each concourse or each area has its own entrance and exit, then you cant.
