Customs through layover in Charlotte

Looking at some flighst to T&C amd back and one has us with a layover in charlotte. I assume we will go through customs in charlotte and not at our final destination of Boston. If that is the case, will an hour and a half layover be sufficient time to get through customs and onto our connecting fligth? TIA

We've found Charlotte to be a very painless airport. Good on-time record and rarely crowded through immigration and customs. You should be fine!

Thanks Cayman Sue. I actually called US air and the woman i spoke with said when she flies she always makes she she has at least 2 hours! Makes me nervous but the times are so good! would love to hear other opinions.

If your leaving on a Saturday it can be busy, but they are very good at Charlotte. Just make sure they do have another later flight to Boston from Charlotte just in case.

We have had very good luck flying through Charlotte. It's an easy airport to get around and our flights have always been on-time. Clearing customs is a very fast process there.

I wonder though if i should worry about the flight leaving T&C on time?
