  • Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is the busiest airport in the world, having served over 110 million passengers in 2019 alone. As Delta's corporate headquarters and largest hub, over 1,000 flights leave here each day, making for a super fast-paced plane spotting experience.
    I paid a visit to Atlanta in January with some friends of mine to cross off a flight on the Delta MD-88, and we stayed at the Renaissance Concourse Atlanta Airport Hotel, which is well-known for its fantastic views of the north runways. This 25+ minute plane spotting compilation is just a glimpse of the constant flow of arrivals and departures on a typical January morning in sunny Georgia!
    With thanks to ‪@mlcochran78‬ for his generous hospitality while we were there.

Besides, it's probably just a Russian troll.

There’s always something new everyday and it’s truly amazing. i’m so so glad i grew up the way i did going from loving Trains, to Cars, and now Aviation! You don’t even have to know a lot about aviation to like it. I feel like a lot of people judge you for your opinions nowadays. I don’t think aviation is something i will ever get over.

    I have a love/hate relationship with ATL. As an aviation enthusiast, I just love watching all of the planes coming and going, with airlines from all over the world. As the busiest airport, they usually have planes taking off just 40 seconds apart. With 5 active runways it is really amazing when you think of all the work that goes into the ATC. My husband worked in the Delta hangar (funny enough I was an aviation geek before I even met him, and his job has given me access to some of the greatest planes). At break time he would often go outside and watch them just lined up waiting to take off. Now as a traveler I hate going through there. It never fails, my plane comes in at the very end of one terminal, and I would have to run down, catch the subway to another terminal, then run to the very end of that one for my next flight within 30 minutes. It has made for some very tight connections.

      I’ve had to do that as well. Arriving at gate C5 and trying to catch a connector at D15 is a real workout, even with the subway connection. I have a friend that thought it would be faster to try and jog from Concourse B to D. I don’t think he realized that it is almost a quarter mile between each concourse. LoL

I wish that this amount of aircrafts were still taking off and landing right now 12/9/2020. Hopefully, by this time next year, we will see this amount of aircrafts taking off and landing again. It's amazing this was only 25 minutes of what air travel used to be like.

    Did you know that (pre-pandemic) that Delta sells all sorts of surplus near their headquarters near the Delta museum? They are the second Friday of every month (the last couple have been cancelled due to Covid-19) You can by anything from old business class seats to dishes, and glasses. I saw a guy buy an entire lavatory (no joke). Anything that has a delta logo on it that they dont use anymore you can find there. I hope they can still have them some day soon. People wait in line before it starts to get in. I bet you would have fun there.

    living here in the atlanta area for 34 years, ive contributed to probably a few thousand of those flights going in and out over the years both domestic and international, have watched KATL build from just 2 runways back when i first moved to Atlanta in 1986, to 4, to now 5 and from 4 Concourses, to now 7. A,B,C,D,E,F and T
    I Lived in Clayton County during the construction of Runway 10/28 ( the 5th runway ) man that was a giant rolling mess for a year.
    went to the Open House event for the 5th runway, got to drive the Jaguar Fast Response Crash Truck, ran the 2 mile marathon from one end to the other. and overall had a blast.
    And the Memories of the Old Ford Plant and the small rooftop hatch you could go stand up there and watch them come within 30 feet directly over your head.....ill miss those days the most.
