- Ana MGJanuary 20, 2013Probably the most efficient, humane TSA experience of any major US airport. Centralized check-in, so it does take time to make it thru, and then get to your gate by train. Allow plenty of time!Upvoted Mar 14
AmyAugust 1, 20137:30am on a Thurs morning: 45 minutes to get though TSA. Think the busiest airport in the world should expand its security screening? I do. "Like" if you do, too.
Love it when they yell at you. Now added extra people to tell you what to do, but same slow rude system.
Colin LordSeptember 20, 2018If you have precheck, the entrance is off to the left as you approach the check point.
Christy TaylorJanuary 24, 2012Don't get caught up in the ignorance of others! TSA did a fabulous job! No attitudes and very helpful! Also incredibly streamlined process. Thanks for keeping us safe TSA!
Jayne AnnJanuary 17, 2019We’re all here at 5am for 8am or later flights, and we’re TSA pre-check. Arrive early because this Government shutdown is wreaking havoc on TSA lines!
Jennifer ThomasApril 21, 2013Leave extra time on weekends- especially Sunday to get through security! Lots of infrequent travelers and it takes longer! !!- Opt-out of the body scanners for a free massage! Why expose yourself to extra radiation? Don't forget to make awkward moaning sounds when they approach your groin. Mmmuuaaaahhhhhhh!
- Love the TSA pre-screen security line! Keep the shoes on, computer stays in the bag and no bins! You have to opt in, though and only DL and AA travelers for now.
Ifyour an employee and not working to fly out, please use the non-employee line, because your holding up the line with your 50k + bags for those that do work that day. Same goes for flight crews!
Bob BlaskiewiczJanuary 4, 2012The backscatter tech exposes you to a miniscule fraction of the radiation of traditional scanners b/c it doesnt need to penetrate your skin. Yay! Technology! Progress!
This is a tip for the agents. Cheer up. Why do u have to be so miserable? No reason to make us as unhappy as u r
Don't be that guy. Pick up your stuff and move to the benches and tables beyond the security area. Getting dressed right there only holds up the line, jackass!
Paula MadeiraJune 20, 2017Very long line. Be prepared to wait around 15-20 minutes to get through security. Take your ID out and get your boarding pass in hand.
Michael J southbayfoodies.comOctober 14, 2022If your flight departs between 6 and 8 AM...and you don't have Clear or TSA Precheck...plan for about an hour to get through security. Lines are crazy long in the morning and move slow as molasses.- Pre Check is random. You may not always be picked for the pre check line. And when you don't and have to wait with the teaming masses. It can be a downer
Find a metal detector and avoid the AIT body scanners. The metal detectors are faster, and they can tell the difference between a piece of paper in your pocket and an explosive. The AIT machines can't
Stay in lanes 1-4, don't head to the far left or right, much longer and very deceiving
VallyriSeptember 21, 2018Atl kcm is always down, it's a pain. And the longs for regular peeps can be long!
Alexander CuaJune 21, 2013For domestic travel, you only need your global entry card and iPhone boarding pass. Remember to put your phone in your bag and walk through the checkpoint. So convenient.
Arrive early and walk to your concourse. You'll get some cool art and history exhibits for no extra charge!
Sweetest words ever for a business traveler...leave your computer in the bag & leave your does& jacket on! The BEST!
TammyMay 17, 2012The Millimeter Wave Body Scanners aren't bad at all. 3 seconds, in, out, done. Just make sure everything's out of your pockets!
If you have TSA per-check, go around the main line on the right...there is no line there usually
Darshel LanetteOctober 18, 2019The TSA workers need to be friendlier! Yelling at people at 5 in the a.m. is ridiculous!
Don't get into the sky priority lane at the TSA South checkpoint. They cram SP through one security lane while the general one gets split between three separate lanes. Ends up taking longer.
DJ SimmsJuly 14, 2013Also leave you belts untied, laptops in hand, and money, cards,and carry on items in a see through bag.
If you're traveling on a Monday morning, leave earlier than normal to get here. Expect to wait at least 30 minutes.
The general lane of south security is often slower than the others, but it just depends--check the iflyatl.com website for security wait times.
Get here before 7 pm when all gates are open. After 7, it's just the main checkpoint.
JulieSeptember 26, 2010Head over to A-Bar (by gate A27) for a great drink! If I'm there, i'll buy you a beer! Follow @ABarAtlAirport
During your screening etiquette states that you look to the right when you cough.
Tumble WeedMay 21, 2019Whatever wait time apps and websites give you, don’t trust it. Add 30 min and expect that most TSA work with no haste or speed at all.
SpazzoJuly 15, 2012Be here early if you are comin on weekends ... It's a big airport and has long lines at security checkpoints
Natalia SalvadorJuly 9, 2012They make everyone go through the X-Ray machine so if you cannot or choose not to go through, it will take AT LEAST 15 minutes to get pet down
For you crazies the body scanner doesn't take naked photos of you it uses radio frequencies to check for things in your pockets and stuff you never see body parts- drew bowersMarch 1, 2010Please know if you are an "expert traveller" or not. True "experts" have their laptops at hand, shoes untied, belts in their bags and everything ready to go.
- AmyAugust 1, 2013IF airport personnel ever read this: PLEASE BALANCE THE TEMP CONTROL IN YOUR AIRPORT. Your customers are usually TOO HOT. Why do ya want us sweating???!
Get pre-checked - no taking off shoes, taking out laptops or baggies! The best thing ever!
