Transfer between terminals at Atlanta Airport

LOuVe · 2025-03-01

Hi there,

Okay, I’m starting to get really nervous about this airport and the transfer... Could you please reassure me about the route I need to take?

PLEASE MESSAGE ME ON FACEBOOK AT LOUISE ANDREE DELORME—it’ll be quicker for me. Seriously, I’m even willing to give a little something financially for your help!! We’re leaving this Monday, March 3...

Flight with Delta Air Lines Flight 2625 Departure from Montreal (Quebec) at 6:00 PM Arrival at Atlanta at 9:00 PM Terminal 1 (Layover 1 hour)

Flight with Delta Air Lines Flight 1229 Departure at 10:00 PM Atlanta Terminal S Arrival at Fort Lauderdale at midnight Terminal 2

I don’t have any gate numbers yet... I guess we’ll get those when we present the e-ticket?

From what I understand, I stay in Terminal 1 and head south to find the gate—is that right? Is it walkable or do I need to take the train? Is it well signposted or is it a nightmare?

Return trip (this seems more complicated) Delta Air Lines Flight 1168

Departure from Fort Lauderdale at 5:00 AM Terminal 2 Arrival at Atlanta at 12:00 PM Terminal S (Layover 1 hour 15 minutes)

Delta Air Lines Flight 2597 Departure from Atlanta at 9:00 AM TERMINAL 1 Arrival at Montreal at 11:00 AM

What I understand is... Terminal 2 means international flights. So I need to head south to Terminal 1 (domestic flight?)

Is that where I take the Plane Train or a bus?

Thanks to whoever takes the time to help!

PS: We don’t have any luggage... just a bag that fits under the seat. Thank goodness! !

Hi, no worries—it’s very large but well signposted. You’ll probably need to change terminals, but the mini train is clearly marked. So no problem! But I get that the size of this airport can be intimidating (we’ve done it three times as a layover and had no issues). Have a great trip
