Navigating the Airport

"If you’re connecting between concourses, The Plane Train is your best friend. It’s fast and stops at every concourse. But if you have a bit of time and want to stretch your legs, the Transportation Mall's moving walkways are a great alternative." — Michael P., Decatur, GA, December 2023

"For international arrivals, remember that Concourse F is the only one that can handle the Airbus A380. It’s also where you’ll find the most comprehensive customs and immigration facilities." — Lisa S., College Park, GA, January 2024

Amenities & Services

"If you need a quiet place to relax, the Delta Sky Club lounges are fantastic. They have locations in Concourses A, B, C, D, E, and T, offering great amenities like showers and complimentary snacks." — Emily H., Sandy Springs, GA, March 2024
