The International Terminal at Atlanta airport

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport has one street address for each terminal. The Domestic Terminal is at 6000 North Terminal Parkway, Atlanta, GA 30320, and the International Terminal is at 2600 Maynard H. Jackson Jr. Blvd., Atlanta, GA 30354. ATL puts the airport about 10 miles south of downtown. Georgia’s environmental regulator places most of it in Clayton County.

Use the address for the terminal you need

The International Terminal has its own entrance, separate from the Domestic Terminal’s, so the wrong address sends you to the wrong building.

Which county is Atlanta airport in?

The airport’s mailing city is Atlanta, and the City of Atlanta owns it. ATL’s own pages don’t name a county. Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division does, in an air-permit review of the airport: most of the property is in Clayton County, and some is in Fulton County.

If a form asks for one county, Clayton is the answer the state’s review gives.

Driving: 20 minutes from downtown, and the interstate to take

ATL’s directions page says the airport is about 20 minutes south of downtown in normal traffic.

MARTA’s Red and Gold lines run directly to the Airport Station, which is inside the Domestic Terminal between the North and South baggage claims. Our MARTA rail page lists the fares, and the standard fare is $2.50.

MARTA doesn’t go to the International Terminal. MARTA says there’s a free shuttle outside Domestic Terminal baggage claim that runs around the clock, with a 15-minute trip between the Domestic and International Terminals. The Plane Train also links the two. Our International Terminal shuttle page has the stop.
