Ground Transportation

MARTA Public Transportation System

Catch MARTA first. With direct train service to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) offers efficient, no-hassle connections.

MARTA's Airport Station, the final stop on the South Line, is only a 17-minute trip from Five Points Station, the hub of the MARTA rail system. Other popular destinations are equally accessible from the airport.

All southbound trains go to the airport and have plenty of luggage space available at the end of each railcar. Elevators, located in every rail station, provide additional convenience for travelers carrying multiple bags.

How to Find MARTA in Hartsfield-Jackson

Arriving air travelers should follow the Ground Transportation signs to MARTA. The entrance to MARTA’s Airport Station is located inside the western end of the airport's main terminal. The fare gates are just a few feet from the baggage claim areas. Follow the signs, which are plentiful.
