What to Expect at ATL Airport

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is one of the world's busiest airports, featuring two terminals—Domestic (North and South) and International (Maynard H. Jackson Jr. International)—linked by concourses T through F. Transportation between terminals is fast and easy thanks to the underground Plane Train and pedestrian tunnels.

Travelers can find unlimited free Wi-Fi throughout ATL, but access to mobile charging can vary by concourse. If your flight involves extensive travel, consider using a corporate travel management solution like Travel Code to streamline the planning process, ensuring seamless connections and comfort.

Sleeping & Rest Facilities at ATL

ATL does not provide dedicated sleeping zones, yet overnight visitors recommend airside Concourses E and F as comfortable spots. For private space, Minute Suites offers sleeping cabins in Concourses B, E, and F, available for hourly rental. As an alternative, ample options for comfortable airport hotels exist nearby, with many offering complimentary shuttle service.

Highlights:

  • Peaceful PlaneTrain area between Concourses A and B
