American Airlines has launched its first grab-and-go airport lounge, named Provisions by Admirals Club, at Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The new facility is located next to Gate A1 and covers about 2,000 square feet. It is designed for travelers who want a quick snack or drink on their way to their flight.

The lounge does not offer seating or tables, and it appears there are no power outlets available for charging devices. Instead, the focus is on convenience and speed for passengers in transit.

Travelers can access Provisions under the same rules as other Admirals Club locations. The lounge offers breakfast items such as packaged snacks, pastries, yogurt, and fruit from 6:15 a.m. to 11 a.m., with all-day options including salty and sweet treats and meal boxes available until 10:45 p.m. Beverages include drip coffee, tea, canned and bottled nonalcoholic drinks; however, there are no baristas or specialty coffee machines.

Personalized flight assistance is available from two staff representatives who can help with travel questions or irregular operations.

Other airlines like Air Canada and United have also invested in grab-and-go lounges. Credit card companies have joined this trend by providing takeaway food options at Capital One Lounges and Amex’s upcoming Sidecar outposts.

Charlotte serves as American Airlines’ second-busiest hub with significant connecting traffic.

"The airline just opened its first-ever grab-and-go lounge, dubbed Provisions by Admirals Club, at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT). The space, which measures roughly 2,000 square feet, is designed exclusively for travelers to pop by on the way to their flight — whether they're hoping to get a snack or a cup of coffee."

"There are no tables or seating options for travelers. I'm not even sure if you'll find a power outlet for some last-minute juice."

"Provisions occupies a previously unused space next to Gate A1 at CLT."

"The only true amenity in the outpost is personalized flight assistance, provided by two representatives on staff who can help with irregular operations or day-of-travel questions."

"In terms of food, American says it'll serve breakfast from 6:15 a.m. until 11 a.m. and all-day options from 11 a.m. to 10:45 p.m."

"Provisions will be stocked with packaged snacks, pastries, yogurt and fruit options during the morning hours, followed by salty and sweet treats during the afternoon and evening. Meal boxes will also be available throughout the day."

"If you're looking for caffeine, you might want to go elsewhere. Drip coffee and tea will be available, but don't expect any baristas or coffee machines here."

"Canned and bottled nonalcoholic drinks will be available as well."

"In terms of access, Provisions inherits the same access rules as any other Admirals Club, so be sure to check out our detailed guide to see if you qualify."

"This Provisions location at American's Charlotte hub represents its first foray into the grab-and-go concept."
