Destination Profile
From the petrol-purring exhibits of the NASCAR Hall of Fame to the steel-glinting skyscrapers of uber-cool Uptown, the wooded foothills of the Appalachians to the spice-sizzling Cajun eateries of NoDa, Charlotte has oodles up its sleeve. The so-called Queen City, it's the perfect entry point for explorations on the southern side of the Mason-Dixon line. That means BBQ lunches and banjo-plucking bars aplenty, but it also means enthralling Civil War and civil rights history. Tempted? Good, because cheap flights to Charlotte can be a real bargain. They'll jet you into the Douglas International Airport, and run on a whole host of carriers, both low-cost and premium.
