Tips for 50 min Connections
CSG has only a few daily Delta Connection flights, almost all to and from Atlanta, so true same-airport connections are uncommon.
If your itinerary lists a connection, it is far more likely happening at Atlanta (ATL) rather than at CSG itself, so plan around ATL's larger connection times instead.
The terminal is tiny with just a couple of gates, so there is no need to rush between them even with a short layover.
Security at CSG is minimal and rarely has lines, making even short buffer times generally manageable.
Check with Delta if you have any doubt about your true connecting airport, since CSG rarely holds passengers for onward connections locally.
Busyness — Connection Risk

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
CSG has one small single-level terminal with a handful of gates, so there is no train, shuttle, or bus needed between gates — everything is a short walk of a few minutes. There is no re-screening concern for connections since virtually all traffic funnels through Atlanta rather than requiring a second CSG-based connection.
