- ATL Airport Overview
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport ATL, located 7 miles S of business district Atlanta, Georgia, is the world's largest airport (5.8 million square feet), with an international and six domestic concourses, serving over 75 million passengers per year. The airport’s underground train keeps passengers moving efficiently between the concourses and the terminals and saves time and effort walking through drab underground corridors. Security checkpoint lines at times are very long and it is recommended that on busy days passengers arrive at the airport more than two hours ahead of scheduled flight departure.
Hartsfield-Jackson Airport has five runways and is primary hub for Delta Air Lines, Air Tran Airways, Delta Connection and partner Atlantic Southeast. Atlanta Airport, with its 180 gates, it serves as major transfer point for flights to/from smaller US cities. It is also an international gateway to/from the United States. ATL is equipped to handle triple simultaneous landings, offering over 200 nonstop destinations, a third of which are international ones. Parking options at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport are as follows: North & South Short-Term Parking Lots; North & South Daily Parking at Covered Deck Parking; North and South Economy Lots next to the parking decks and West Economy Lot beyond the Transportation Center. Airport Park & Ride Lots A,B & C, with free shuttle service, serve both terminals. There is also a Reserved Lot and a Silver Lot and off-site parking is available. Aside from taking a taxi or limo from the Airport, you can also choose a shared-ride shuttle, available during flight hours, providing services to hotels, convention centers, businesses and residences. Choose between local and regional shuttles--Local Shared-Ride shuttles run approximately 15 minutes apart, while Regional Shared-Ride shuttles depart every 30 minutes to an hour.
Renovation / Construction Updates: 1. Renovations were completed at the Central Passenger Terminal Complex: Upgrades have been completed in concourses A, B, C, D and T, as well as inside the Transportation Mall. The upgrades include new granite tile floors in the corridors, decorated walls and new carpeting in all gate waiting rooms. Restrooms have also been renovated on each concourse. The North Terminal's renovations include new baggage claim units, and the South Terminal received new Delta ticket counter islands. Also, the passenger paging system has been upgraded to a more high-tech intercom unit. 2. Hartsfield-Jackson Airport opens the state-of-the-art Consolidated Rental Car (CONRAC) facility in November 2009, housing all Airport rental car companies and their operations. The 67.5-acre facility is located across Interstate 85 and the Airport and will connect its CONRAC station via six two-car APM trains to the passenger terminals at CPTC station (with a stop at the Gateway Station in between during conventions/exhibits). The trip along the 1.6-mile long elevated guideway will take 5 minutes. 3. Construction Status of the new Maynard H. Jackson, Jr. International Terminal (MHJIT): Construction began in 2008 and overall building designs are nearly completed, while APM tunnel/connector and terminal roadway construction are underway. Completion of MHJIT Terminal is slated for 2011. 4. Long-Term Project: The South Gate Complex is to be ready by 2015.
