You will not have to go through security twice, so if your plane departs and lands anywhere near on time you sill have time to spare, Just make sure you have enough time to get through security in Indianapolis. and take a book so you will have something to fill up your time besides shopping. Good Luck, and I hope you enjoy the experience.

An hour and a half layover is plenty of time. Boarding usually begins half an hour before departure, and the process takes about 15-20 minutes. The general guidelines are: 10 minutes before departure - be in your seat 5 minutes before departure - aircraft and jetway doors close I would think you would be in the same terminal in Charlotte since it's the same airline. You may want to double check with the gate agent in Indianapolis, or if you print your boarding pass online, it should state the gate numbers. I haven't flown to or through Charlotte, so I can't give a personal experience from that perspective.

You will be fine. Take a look at the terminal map and maybe even print it: http://www.charmeck.org/NR/rdonlyres/esj4n3hy6prtv3fxjnotlruy4hdifprkrsosiaabfimeyscgrcx2qvqzuxvgfxgui45dqgrzdmyizj5drbgkdujp5cd/TERMDIRECTORY2008.pdf When arriving into Charlotte the crew will tell you what gate you arrive to. After leaving the airplane look at a monitor for your next gate and go there at least 30 min before departure. The only risk you have is that your flight will be delayed and you miss the connection in Charlotte. If this should happen, don't worry it happens sometimes. I guess both flights are on the same ticket? If so, the airline will rebook you on the next available flight. Don't be nervous, have fun!
