Buckle Up, Buttercup: The Plane Train Awaits
Forget sprinting through the airport like a contestant on an airline-themed reality show (though, that would be entertaining for everyone else). Your chariot to international glory arrives in the form of the legendary Plane Train. Yes, a train. Not a magic carpet, but pretty darn close when it whisks you away to your international departure.
Finding the Plane Train: Don't worry, it's not hiding in some Narnia-esque wardrobe. Look for signs pointing towards the lower level (Level 0). Just follow the yellow brick road, er, I mean, the signs.
QuickTip: Pause when something feels important.
The Plane Train Experience: This sleek and shiny train runs 24/7, departing every 2 minutes. That's faster than you can say "international transfer woes." Settle in, enjoy the ride, and maybe ponder if they ever have karaoke nights on the Plane Train (one can dream).
Bonus Tip: Download the Atlanta airport app before your trip. It has a handy dandy map that will show you exactly where the Plane Train station is located at your current terminal.
QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.
But Wait, There's More! (For Those on a Non-Stop Quest)
If you're arriving at the airport from the ground level (let's say via MARTA, the Atlanta metro), you'll need to take a shuttle bus from the Ground Transportation Center to the International Terminal. These buses run about every 15 minutes, so you won't be waiting an eternity.
Still Lost? Don't Be a Hero, Ask for Help!
The friendly folks at the Atlanta airport are there to help you navigate this concrete jungle. Look for the information booths or ask any airport employee. They'll point you in the right direction, Atlanta hospitality style (which, let's be honest, is pretty darn good).
Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
Remember: A smile and a polite "excuse me" go a long way, especially when you're masquerading as a contestant on that aforementioned airline-themed reality show.
