Jason LiAugust 5, 2013Troops, if you have a valid CAC card and have a clean background (ie. No Article 15s or Courts Martials), you can use TSA Pre-check at Main and North checkpoints. Very fast Pre-check line!
James UnderbergApril 13, 2015Plenty of good choices here - all depends on which terminal you land in - where you are leaving from and how much time you have !!!
Eric AndersonAugust 10, 2014If you have time, try walking the tunnel between terminals rather than using the subway. There's frequently great art exhibits to view.
Jon BallFebruary 23, 2015Best large airport in the country. Clean, friendly staff, TSA moves lightening fast and plenty of great places to eat. As big as the airport is it's very easy to get around. No complaints!
One Flew South in E terminal, Ecco in F terminal best 2 spots
This is my favorite airport! It's smoker friendly and has smoke rooms in all concourses except D. Concourse C is being remodeled so it's hard to get around and all torn up.
Best airport I've been to besides Dallas. Excellent food courts, huge airport and it's clean!
Lindsay BellJanuary 11, 2014If you are going to eat in terminal Dont eat at the food court! GO TO PF CHANG'S! Soooo worth it. Not expensive, SUPER fast and so much nicer to sit in a restaurant. 11 for chicken lo Mien, 10 for veg- Scott WalshJanuary 15, 2017GetApp.AtlantaAirport.Taxi ~ Appointment.AtlantaAirport.Taxi ~~ Fighting to make getting a taxi at the Atlanta Airport right. Lost&Found at airport phone number at TaxiTappAtlanta.Com , behind United.
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.
Julia MetzkerJanuary 21, 2015I always walk to the concourse to enjoy the art. The African stone sculptures are tremendous. Park and ride is affordable and convenient. $9/ day.- Jason LiAugust 5, 2013If you arrive by charter bus, take advantage of the lower level ticketing, especially for Delta. It can alleviate the pressure of waiting at the large Delta ticketing counters, which can get busy.
Amos HathwayFebruary 15, 2020First time through Atlanta and contrary to the tip. Not the friendliest airport. TSA has serious attitude. Glad I’m on my way to PDX which is the best airport in America
Start your day with a jamba juice in the t concourse. They don't open until 7am though so you might have to settle for some steel cut oats from the corner bakery if your flight leaves too early.
Jerry WashingtonJanuary 25, 2015I like to do to the airport I like the newspaper stand W Smith I like the food the drinks they have a variety of things you can do while you're waiting on your plane.
I drop my son off each day it tends to be a headache do to all the construction going on that causes a little more congestion than usual. So come with patiences when dropping off and picking up.
For as busy as this place is, things move smoothly. I was surprised they only had one scanner going at the south TSA, but it moved. The trains are great once you get used to them.
Check out this awesome exhibit on Music in Atlanta in Concourse E b/w E26 &E28! Features mentions of R.E.M., Outkast, of Montreal, Ludacris and more.
If there's a foodie in you, make your way to One Flew South in Terminal E. When you're there, try the orange truce cocktail and the pulled duck sandwich.
If you have time, walk between terminals instead of using the tram. There are several beautiful art installations! today between the main Terminal and A there are awesome stone carvings from Zimbabwe
If you are flying Delta, Nick S will be able to help you become an international points traveler. And be sure to check your connections before you land so you don’t miss them.
Very well organized the staff is super nice and the whole airport is well stocked with food shops and wonderful lay out!
Don't pay and park at the airport. Google discount parking airport atl, check out Global Parking. You can pay about $3/day, includes shuttle to & from hotel to airport. Great deal!
Vikas MittalJanuary 2, 2014Similar to other tips, get here early. If flying early (5:30am) out of Terminal C, there is nothing open to get coffee or a snack. Have the joe at home or the hotel before coming. Safe travels!
domenico webhostingtalk.nlJune 23, 2013Don't forget to get a Westmalle Tripel at the Belgian Beer Cafe Transit. Their menu is also very good.
Great airport with lots of shops and eateries and a nice place to people watch while waiting for your flight. Concourse B is the best

Collin DonohoDecember 23, 2013Concourse E has a large expansive food court! Delta is the best to fly out of Atlanta! Air Tran is a last resort if you can't get on a Delta flight! Customs IS VERY busy!!!!
Barbara KindonOctober 18, 2013Disabled traveler here - Delta was ready, cared for me well from Philly to Fort Meyers, back again 2 weeks later - transfer @ Atlanta went smoothly..nice job Delta! Thanks - we'll fly together again!
If you are flying international the customs section is incredible. They have a ton of the digital customs machines so no waiting in long lines and missing connections!
Carlton JamesApril 17, 2013Park at the "Parking Spot 2" so they can was and wax your car. Then get a free shuttle to you terminal. If you park here you get a free coupon for a wash so you can use it in your return …
Rick DoesburgAugust 27, 2015Free WiFi, the airport is huge, directions are clear, trains to the gates are fast and easy.
Greg FullerJuly 14, 2019Large airport but easy to move from terminal to terminal with the monorail system. Wide selection of restaurants to choose from while there.
Taylor AlstonJune 24, 2019It’s a big airport, so lots of food options. It is worth it to get TSA Precheck or Clear if you live in Atlanta and/or travel through this airport often.
Great airport even if it's the largest. Plenty of places to eat and shop and just pass time if u happen to get a layover.
Papi’s Cuban Restaurant on concourse T is one place I always visit! The food is TASTY!!!
Great airport other than the construction. Walk between concourses is very nice if you have time. Love Delta. Very efficient airport.
Here for a connecting flight? Get ready for a walk (or a run). These concourses are LONG, so be sure to stretch your calves before your mad dash to the gate.
Cindy FischerSeptember 17, 2019I’m hoping it’s an off day at ATL because I’ve never seen gate agents and TSA so cranky. Even TSA pre check required shoe removal. Looking at a lot of travelers, I would probably be cranky too 😂
If you fly Delta and miss your flight, there’s a live Delta Help Desk on your concourse + phones you can pick up that automatically ring direct to a rep who can reschedule you.
If you have the time, walk instead of taking the tram and check out the exhibits. The Walk Through Atlanta History and the stone sculptures from Zimbabwe were pretty cool.
Check out One Flew South in Terminal E for the best food and ExpressSpa in Terminal A for great pedicures. Don't be fooled by the Chick-Fil-A in Terminal C... it's a tiny kiosk with only sandwiches :(
Audrey MurphySeptember 30, 2012When TSA says get here 3-5 hours in advance, you better bet your hiney you need at least 3. It IS the busiest airport in the world. Keep that in mind. But overall, it's fairly organized!- Greg LynchJanuary 8, 2015Boardwalk Burgers on Concourse A was excellent. Sit by the window and listen to live music from the piano bar. Very good burger.
Very nice airport but it is super crowded (fitting since its the busiest one in the world). There is plenty to do here!
I love the history and art displayed while walking from Terminal to another.
One of the busiest airports. Really nice terminals just cross your fingers that there are no terminal changes as it can take a while to go between them
FlightCenter.comJanuary 4, 2012TSA TIP #3 Remove your laptop(s) and shoes/belts while waiting in line for the x-ray machines and carry them in your hands to be ready for the bins, remember laptops are placed in a bin by itself.

"On the ends of each train car is a really nice bench. It's a great place to sit especially if you have the cross multiple concourses."

"Cafe intermezza at the top of the escalators is the best bet for coffee and food. The cafe cubano is great."
