If you're in the E terminal and need a drink or snack, try the Piano Bar and enjoy the peacefulpiano music that almost makes you forget you are at the airport.
ATL is the worlds largest volume airport but you wouldn’t know it based on its smooth operations. Many F & B options and retail to choose from. Enjoy your time in my hometown airport!
One of my least favorite airports. Lots to do and some good eats, but always feeling rushed to get from one plane to the next doesn't allow much time to enjoy. Plan long layovers to experience it.
Been in Atlanta for 3 yrs and been here hell lot of times!! One of the biggest! Lot of food options! Always busy! Lot of memories at this place!! Expect long queues for security check!
Large airport hub is very busy but efficient at getting you where you need to go. Train between terminals is a very good people mover. Lots of places to eat and relax between flights.
The best (and only) tasty food is in the new Terminal F. The tacos at food-truck themed El Taco are awesome, and cheap. Totally worth the trip out there. The only place in ATL that i'll eat at!!
here is a little taste of what Atlanta has to offer.. they don't drink the cool aid here.. they drink the good stuff - sweet tea with a little spike of moonshine!
Very clear and easy to travel between terminals, by train if you're short on time, and even better by walking/moving sidewalks. One of my favorites - largely for this reason.
It's a very logical airport do don't let it's size daunt you. If you are lucky enough to find yourself in terminal e do not miss One Flew South for a cocktail and a great bite to eat!
As a regular, I <3 my hometown airport. Security is considerably quick and efficient compared to others. The train is fast going to all terminals. Great dining, drinking and shopping options.
Free WiFi, just sign up with your mail address. Something to eat? Try Panda Express. If you are not in hurry, walk between terminals instead the train, some times you can find nice artexhibitions.
Stop by this weekend 14st and Spring st for Red Bull Raising the Bar w XGames Gold Medal Champ Ronnie Renner practice blasting over 35' in the air over a high bar. Free to everyone. 7/26 and 7/27 6pm
Atlanta airport may be modern & high tech but the check-in, gates,& baggage claim are miles apart so in that you have to be transported by train. You must arrive early & ask personnel for assistance.
Terminal B has great stuff! Including Savannah candy kitchen in case you need a caramel apple or praline before you fly out! (Or, for sweet tooth family members.)
I will specifically look for 2+ hour layovers during normal restaurant hours to allow tie to visit One Flew South in E. Exceptional cocktails, delicious cocktails, and wonderful staff. Go there.
Experiencing long delays this summer thanks to weather? Get away from the crowds in the main domestic Concourses (T, A, B, C, D) and take the train to Concourse E or F for a much calmer/quieter time!
If you’re pre-check in the Int’l terminal outside if pre-check hours, you can still go through without shoes, just tell TSA near the security belt and you’ll rescan your ticket to keep your shoes on.
Great airport with good food and shop options. Major issues with wifi, it is simply not available for general surfing. which kind of defeats the purpose. Hope that changes soon. I heard it will.
If you're walking thru the terminal as part of a group of five or more people, try to walk side by side so that you obstruct the aisle. That's a great way to demonstrate courtesy and self awareness.
There's lots of restaurants, bars, and shops each of them different in each of the terminals. They have these interesting water dispensers for bottles.
ATL has the daily population of a smallish city packed into a few square km, with management headaches to match. Even if you're tired and stressed, take a moment to admire the logistics.
If you have a long layover, it's worth it to make the trek to Concourse E and eat & drink at One Flew South restaurant. One of the best airportrestaurants in the country.
Really impressed with the size and scale of this airport. Keep an eye on the signs and you'll stay on the right path. Really pleased with Delta's service and there are plenty of food options!
Exceptional layout. Tramsferry you between for parallel concourses. You can traverse the entire place in twenty minutes if you're cutting close on transfers. Best way to fly west in winter.
When arriving, the walk to Uber on the North (blue) side is much shorter and convenient. The color you choose doesn’t matter. They are all next to each other.
Take the long walk between F and the other concourses rather than takin the train. The historical timeline between B and C is particularly moving, but the art is great, too. &walking is good or you!
Have a few ours to kill? Make your way to Terminal F - newest and nicest terminal with much better seating, plug-ins, food and more. Worth the shorttrain ride.
I'm only familiar with flying thru on Delta. Some great eateries have opened lately, Ecco, con. F. My fav SkyClubs are con. F, center con. A upstairs, con C near C37. Several Xpress Spas on concourses
If you have to make connections in another concourse, you gotta take the underground "PlaneTrain" to get there because the concourses are all separate from the main terminal.
Vast airport, but easy to get around with the tram. Make sure to arrive early to go through security (1.5-2 hours for domestic flights). It can get very crowded.
Well, if you have a connection flight, be sure to find a very comfortable place! Not always is possible to find a nice spot where you can also charge your phone ;)
Airport is fancyshmancy big and food court is really nice. Playing jazz right now and there's a couple 24 hour food spots. Way nice cuz I'm 5 hours early to my flight!
If you're planning on parking here for an extended period of time during the busy holidays, be aware that economy parking can (and will) fill up - forcing you to pay ~$20 per day for regular parking.
If you're flying Delta out of Atlanta, it's easier to fly out of the International terminal. You can check in for domestic or International flights on that side for Deltaflights ONLY
Weigh your bag with an actual luggage weight scale. They can save you hundreds &/or the sucky feeling of going thru your suitcase to choose what gets thrown away. Domestic travel: 50lbs, intl: 70lbs
Have 30-40 minutes? Walk from Terminal T to F (the whole airport) and enjoy each terminal's artexhibits. 5-10 minutes: walk from Terminal T to A and enjoy the Zimbabwe sculptureexhibit!
Hug place look at maps in magazine in search pockets or ask attendants your arrival gate. If you have less than an hour between flights you will need to hustle or you may miss your connection
This is an incredibly hospitableairport toward the planespotting community. It’s completely OK to take photos of airplanes here at ATL parking decks as well as the gates.
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport proudly bears the distinction of being the world’s busiest and most efficient airport and has served as a valuable hub connecting various cities and countries around the globe.
