Hi, I’m Brian and I love to travel and cruise. My wife and I travel as much our full-time jobs (and finances) allow it. Sometimes with kids but sometimes not. My channel originally began with posting a few videos for family to see of some of our trips, however when I posted an Atlanta Airport check-in/walkthrough video it began to get quite a few views. It was then I realized that just like I do, many people like to conduct very thorough research before traveling, particularly flying. Airports can be complex and intimidating, so I decided that everytime that I took a flight that I would video it and create videos of the airport experience for people who wanted to know what to expect. From time to time in between my airport videos I occasionally post other travel related videos.
If you see any videos that you enjoy or find helpful, I would appreciate it if you’d hit that “Like” button and consider subscribing.
Saw some tiktok videos. It says we need to go train for collect baggage.. but your video showing different way. Do i need go train or just follow your video?
@@skymaxaki94 you will walk past baggage claim long before you will have an opportunity to get on a train. There is not a way to get to a train without walking by baggage claim.
@@rochteauweke386 that video was a real time walkthrough. I would add about 5 minutes on for passport control and about 3-4 minutes to collect our bags off of the baggage carousel and that video would be a pretty accurate depiction of the time.
WiFi is not available near Gate 4. I finally figured out that I had to walk 25 meters away in either direction to connect to WiFi. Toward Gate 1, there are extra electrical outlets. I appreciate the tour of the airport!
@@kennymackie4518 if you have a connecting flight you will pick up your bags, leave the baggage pickup area, and then immediately re-check your bags just outside baggage claim. You will then be funneled back to a security checkpoint.
According to the airport's official website - "Guests departing the Airport using Lyft, Uber or Wridz can be picked up at Red Baggage Claim, the Blue Express Curbside, or the SkyCenter One office buildling remote curbside. A service fee of $5.00 will be added to the cost of the fare."
Hi Mr Ozment I just love your videos and wished you could have traveled to Guam on United airlines. It is just a request so please don’t make it a priority😅
I really appreciate the video. You posted about the walk from the terminal to the train station. I’m a visual person and I liked all the video cues of which way to turn in the airport. Very helpful, thank you very much. As I was reading some of the comments about ticket validations. Are the tickets smaller in the machine now? However, if we purchase it online, the QR code as I will need, correct? I appreciate your time and responding to my questions. Thanks again for the video.
Great video! We have a flight from Atlanta to Amsterdam therefore we have to return our car at the car rental. And then go to the terminal for international flights. Can you describe what route you need to take?
Thanks for your video. I’d like to know if this sounds correct. We’re flying into Atlanta on Swest from NYC, picking up luggage, then taking bags via the Skytrain to the International terminal to Delta check in (bag drop off) for flight to Europe, then through TSA to our gate. Does that sound correct considering our flights are on different carriers? Thanks in advance.
It’s ALMOST correct. The SkyTrain doesn’t go to the international terminal. You will have to take the International Connector Shuttle as seen in this video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YF9Pii11rds.htmlsi=RfG_jE1hWHy3LP_k BUT, there is an alternative to going to the international terminal to check in with Delta. Often Delta will allow you to check in for international flights at the domestic terminal. If they will allow this, you could just pickup your luggage from your Southwest flight and then walk to the Delta counters to check in and drop them off. Delta has allowed me in the past to check in for their international flights at the domestic terminal but just to be sure I would either call or do an online chat with Delta’s customer service and just ask if you can check in & drop your bags for you international flight at Delta’s domestic counters. If Delta allows you to do this it could save a lot of time in waiting for and riding the free International Connector Shuttle.
when I arrive from Heathrow airport do I have to catch the train for my luggage? I’ve seen another vid where no train was necessary. Also I have a British passport can i go through the quick line i.e scan passport get photo taken
You shouldn’t have to board the train for your luggage. The train is totally beyond baggage claim and you would have to walk past all the baggage carousels to get to the train. As far as the passport goes, I am uncertain. I have a United States passport and I was able to scan it like you mentioned.
Great video, do you know where the cruise lines buses drop off passengers using their shuttles? I'm planning to ride the Carnival shuttle from Port Canaveral to MCO on a Sunday flight scheduled for 12:25 pm on Southwest Airlines. Want to plan my route
I’m not 100% sure but I believe that the cruise shuttles operate out of level 1 near the car rental area. If you watch this video you see the “GoPortCanaveral” shuttle desk and if I recall correctly the other cruise lines areas are just past this. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i3cM-UN_yoQ.htmlsi=v-YNyVApDzYXROuO
This is very well done - ATL is one of the most confusing airports I have ever been to. They have plenty of people to guide and answer any question but they have so many nuances. For example, if you have JUST clear, without TSA pre, even though your gate is at the south checkpoint you need to go to the north checkpoint for JUST Clear, go through security and make your way back to the south side.
This video kind help me ,I'm head to Atlanta this July, so is sky train underground or is on the fourth floor, so does stop at any car rentals, or stop at one stop,please explain thank you
Very good and informative video, particularly for those who are new comers and unable to manage connecting flights from the domestic carriers like United Airlines etc. ❤❤❤❤
Such a small concourse. Expansion is greatly needed. Flew out of D the week of Thanksgiving last year and it was PACKED! Can't wait to see this completed.
Are you going to be there in the international terminal in the Atlanta airport at 3:30 because I am going to be there on a flight on Delta to Amsterdam
Oh WOW! So glad I found this video for my daughter! She's coming out tomorrow with her husband and kids and this video will make them feel so much better about the check in process and where to go! THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for your video. It helped me understand how to get from point A to point B. Showing us the signs and the walk-through really will help out when we arrive in September. Thank you again. 😊 Grazie Grazie Grazie 😊
@@belkisquiroga6007 there is a connector shuttle from the domestic terminal to the international terminal and back. Here is a video on it… Atlanta Airport Domestic Terminal - International Connector Shuttle & Taxi Location ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YF9Pii11rds.html
great video. thank you atl airpor for building a great parking lot. for many years i been using park&fly, but after using atl west, this is the only lot i use now. the license plate scan is very convenient. i drive through park, jump on a sky train and im in the airport. no more waiting for shuttle bus
Sorry if this is a silly question. My reservation says: Departure Terminal: 2 Does this mean that instead of say, going to terminal 5 like you did, I enter terminal 2 instead?
Thank you for the info,but I have questions ,is all the skytrain stop at levels 4,my terminal is delta airlines, so how do I know which train to take me there, thank you if you share the information
@@johnliu8953 correct. The skytrain just has one stop at the terminal and then depending on which airline you just follow the signs to walk to the check in counter for that airline.
