Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport (ATL) Train & Subway Services

ATL SkyTrain is a new, elevated train that connects Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport's passenger terminal to the rental car centre. Trains take travelers on a scenic, five-minute ride to the Rental Car Centre (RCC), where they sign rental agency contracts and pick up cars.

During the day, trains run about every  three minutes. During off-peak hours and overnight, the wait time should be no longer than 10 minutes.
