CHARLOTTE,NC - MAY 15: Passengers walk between terminals at Charlotte Douglas International Airport on May 15, 2020 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Air travel is down an estimated 94 percent due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and major U.S. airlines are taking a major financial hit with losses of $350 million to $400 million a day and nearly half of major carriers airplanes are sitting idle.

It seems like everything is more expensive these days, and flights are no different.

If you’ve looked up flights out of Charlotte for this year and thought, “Dang, those are expensive!” You’re not wrong. A new study by FinanceBuzz looked at all the average airfares from the 45 most busy airports in the US. The study was meant to find which airports are best for travelers on a budget, and which ones you should try to avoid if you’re wanting to save money.

Unfortunately, Charlotte was one of the most expensive airports to fly out of. Charlotte/Douglas International Airport ranked 40th out of the 45 airports looked at.

An average fair of $356.60 is the norm in Charlotte. That’s up over $20 from last year.

According to FinanceBuzz, here are the 6 most expensive airports in America.

With Memorial Day weekend, and Summer coming up, many people would love to be doing some traveling, but with inflation, that might not be a possibility this year.

Unfortunately, gas prices are the highest they’ve been too, so driving isn’t cheap either!
