  • From Amsaterdam to Tampa vie Atlanta
    Jan 18, 2012
    1
    We are coming from Amsterdam by flight DL9374 to Atlanta and continuing to Tampa by flight DL2304. What should we do in Atlanta? Thanks.

     

    1. As an international arrival, you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bag (the tag should indicate layover and final destination Airport Codes). Until 'Spring 2012' when the International Terminal opens, Concourse E functions as international terminal. After customs clearance & re-check-in of baggage, take the APM train to your departure Concourse & corresponding gates (D, C, B, A, or T), and arrive there in minutes. Watch the overhead screens for your Tampa connecting flight and see which gate you have to be in, (i.e., A gates A1, B2, C3). Count on 30-45 mins for customs clearance, etc. and another 20 minutes to your gates (at most).

     

  • Enough time to change?

    Arriving on Delta 1234 in South terminal at 8:14 am. My next flight is AA 1735 to SJU at 9:45 am, I believe it's in the North terminal. With only a carry on, is this enough time to make it? Is there any route to change terminals without going through security again?

     

    Time is sufficient. Concourses A through E and their corresponding gates (i.e., A18, B30) are connected by the APM train. - simply follow signs.

    my ticket has no gates. I am arriving Delta flight 5579 from ABE on 12-20-11 with 46 min to get to my gate for Delta flight 4947 to BNA. Worried I won't make connection.

     

    how long a walk is it from gate B5 to gate B28?

    I'm flying Delta and my tickets don't have what gate I'm arriving and departing from... Is there a way to figure it out? I only have a 45min layover here with 2 kids... eeeekkk!

     

    Delta uses A, B, C D & E gates (D & E being international gates) - depending on where they come fron/go to. Your ticket should read, i.e., E27, A18, D33, C42, etc.) You can also check on day of departure by visting atlanta-airport.com - to the left check first Arrivals and add DL (Delta) enter, then move down screen and sort by DL again. - then do the same for Departures.

     

  • International to domestic?

    I am flying in from Mexico in March and connecting to an AirTran flight. Can I make the connecting flight in 1hour from the new International airport?

     

    1. AirTran departs from the North Terminal. You need to look at your ticket to see which gate you arrive at and depart from (The North terminal has gates T1-15, A1-34, B1-36, C1-57, D1-46 & E1-37. If you arrive at the South Terminal, you would have to transfer over to the North Terminal (flanked on either side of Main Terminal are North & South Terminals. The Automated People Mover train runs between the A through E concourses, in the center of their gates. 2. As an international arrival, you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bag (the tag should indicate layover and final destination Airport Codes). Note, however, that you may not be able to re-check-in your bag if you travel on more than one ticket issued by non-participating airlines, in which case you need to take your bag to your connecting terminal and check it in there. Count on this procedure to take 30-45 mins.

     

  • South Terminal to E27

    I am arriving from Toronto (DL4025) at 8.51am I believe at South Terminal and have connection to DL531 to Cancun at 9.47am from E27. Is it enough time to make connection and what is the best way to get there

     

    Today's arrivals/departures at ATL did no show either flight. However, keep in mind that for boarding there are six concourse buildings parallel to one another, with Concourse T being directly connected to the main terminal, and Concourses A, B, C, D & E being arranged successively in distance from the terminal. The center of each terminal has escalators to the train, with the gate areas on either side, and food & drink establishments, retail stores, services and lounges disbursed throughout each concourse. Concourse E, the farthest terminal from the Main Terminal. Look at your ticket which will show you the gate you arrive at (i.e., B-10 would be Concourse B, gate 10, etc.) you have plenty of time, as Toronto has U.S. customs clearance & you won't have to do that at ATL.

    Can I make it from Gate D15 to Gate T2 in 30 minutes?

     

    You need to take the APM train located between gates D1-16 & D21-37 to the Main terminal's east end which also serves the T concourse and its gates. You really need to sprint - train runs a continuous loop.

     

  • There is no terminal mentioned?!?

    Hi there, We are fyling airtran from LA to ATL and then Airtran (different flight) one hour later to our final destination on the East Coast but it tells us nowhere about which terminals we will need to be in??

     

    At LAX Airtran Flight 54 &56 depart at Terminal 3; At ATL all Airtran flights depart/arrive from the C gates (gates C1-22 & C30-57) of the North Terminal.

     

  • Another timing question

    We're arriving in Concourse A, and have roughly an hour to make a connecting flight in Concourse E. Is it going to be difficult to make the flight in Concourse E? Thank you in advance.

     

    All Cocnourses are connected by an underground transportation Mall served by the APM train, which makes continuous rounds. Concourse E has gates E1-13, E14-18 in the center, and E19-37. An hour will suffice.

    Best way to get there

     

    The APM train takes you from B gates to D gates, stopping in the center of the Concourses.

    I have a flight that says I am departing from Atlanta West B Hartsfield and the ticket says that this could be a surrounding airport. Is this located in Hartsfield as normal for me or is it located somewhere else? USAirways flight to Charlotte NC

     

    1. From the main terminal and the main security checkpoint you get to North & South security checkpoints and their North & South Terminals. US Airways are located in the North Terminal. The APM train takes you to Concourses A-E. Your Concourse will be B,with B gates (i.e., B10, B7) - look at your ticket for the gate number).

     

  • From B11 to C45 in 35 minutes?

    Is it possible to make this second fllight that is scheduled 35 minutes after first plane lands? Also, will the luggage make it?

     

    1. Make sure that you have your bags tagged with the codes of all 3 airports when checking in. In Atlanta, bags will be transferred to your next flight. 2. You can make the transfer from B to C gates by automated people mover. Unless you are an international arrival & need to go through passport & customs clearance and re-check-in your bags (taking up to 30 mins) you have enough time.

     

  • Arriving South Terminal departing North

    will I be able to connect with an arrival of 922 PM and departure of 1040 PM. I am traveling from DFW / ATL/ Amsterdam/ final destination Nice , will my bags be checked from DFW to Nice ? Thank you

     

    1. At DFW make sure your bags are properly labeled for ATL, AMS & NCE. Keep valuables with you onboard. Bags should arrive in Nice safely. 2. Familiarize yourself with the layout of the terminals so that you know where you arrive and where to and how you need to transfer. Bon Voyage!

     

  • Can I get to my gate on time?

    I am arriving from Paris AF 680 25 aug and my next fly Delta 300 to MSPL the same day at 10 p.m. It's possible to get this on time?

     

    I only see 8 & 9 thousand flight number listings for AirFrance - look at your ticket and see what flight number and which gates (i.e. A2, B3, C10) you arrive at. Both AirFrance & Delta are in Main Terminal South, but at different Concouses. Note that international arrivals need to get their checked bags first, go through customs clearance and re-check-in their bags (which should be tagged as through baggage at original departure airport). Then proceed to the people Mover (APM) which gets you to the concourse of your connecting flight.

     

    I'm flying from Brazil to Salt Lake City making connection in Atlanta. Usually in that gate I make the connection to Salt Lake?

     

    arriving gate B36 7:47 departure to Paris, FR gate E17 departing 8:40 enough time to make the flight?
