So we left yesterday flying on AA to CLT once again I was pleasantly surprised how easy and quick it was. We did not have to check any bags and I was able to use mobile boarding passes with no problems thru security. I also liked the new scanners at security you did not need to take out anything and could leave it all in backpack or carryon. Only shoes had to be taken off. We used the electronic gate thru immgration after baggage scan very quick. I think the entire process was maybe 10 to 15 minutes until we reached sitting area. AA for this flight had a jet bridge A3 so no shuttle bus so once again we got lucked out. Arrived around 1235 for a 1533 flight and we boarded around 1450 and made it to CLT around 1840. No connection because we have about an 90 minute drive to be home. Thanks to everyone here for their input and suggestions all were very inciteful and helpful.

Ok you got me I'm confused it was where I used the Egate by inserting passport and was the last step before entering departure area. Thanks for the peer check

Glad that things went smoothly for you. We had the same experience early December except for the jet bridge. We waited about twenty minutes on the tarmac to board. Hopefully we will have a jet bridge in April. We also fly from car and have a ninety minute drive home. We cleared immigration/customs in about five minutes in clt with global entry.
