ATL Airport Travel FAQs

Yes, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the central airport in Atlanta, and in the entire region. ATL officially changed its name in 2003. Still, it is also commonly referred to as other names by the public, including: 

  • Atlanta airport

  • Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport

  • ATL

  • Hartsfield

  • Hartsfield-Jackson

Atlanta’s airport was renamed in 2003 to honor former Atlanta Mayor Maynard Jackson following his death. The Atlanta airport has undergone multiple name changes since its establishment in 1925. The airport’s original name, Candler Field, was later changed to the Atlanta Municipal Airport in 1948 and William B. Hartsfield Atlanta Airport in 1971. 

No, the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the only commercial airport in Atlanta. While there has been debate about adding a second international airport to alleviate some of ATL’s passenger traffic, the city does not currently have plans to construct a second airport. 

Airport officials recommend travelers arrive at least two hours before their departure time for domestic travel and three hours for international travel. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport consistently ranks as the busiest airport in the world, and travelers should plan their arrival accordingly. 

ATL is 11 miles south of downtown Atlanta. After you leave the Atlanta airport in your car rental or another car, you can generally get to the downtown area in about 20 to 30 minutes via I-85 N.

While there aren’t traditional toll roads near ATL, there are optional express lanes that can help you bypass some of the traffic congestion on I-75. To learn more about tolls and express lanes in Atlanta and beyond, review our Georgia Tolls Guide.

The drive from the Atlanta airport to Marietta, Georgia, takes about an hour, depending on traffic. ATL is southwest of central Atlanta, and Marietta lies on the northwest side of the metro area, so it is possible to travel between Hartsfield-Jackson and Marietta without going through downtown.
