The Most Dangerous (And Expensive) Airports Ever Built

55. Charlotte International Airport – North Carolina, USA

Year of construction: 1936
Risk factors: Bad organization

This airport is one of the most dangerous in the United States. In the last five years alone, there have been 35 incidents on its runways. But the reasons why Charlotte International is a risk do not have to do with its facilities, nor with the weather conditions of the area.

Instead, the danger is more related to the poor organization of the airport’s air traffic, which causes delays, cancelations, and even accidents. Many planes have had problems approaching the runway because pilots had misinformation about landing conditions.
