Atlanta airport expects 2.3 million travelers over Labor Day travel period
It’s Labor Day weekend and the world’s busiest airport for passengers is expecting a surge of travelers.
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport expects around 2.3 million travelers to pass through Atlanta from Sep. 2 through Sep. 9. If that happens, officials say that would be a 1% increase from last year’s holiday travel.
Friday, Sep. 4 is expected to be the busiest day with more than 335,000 passengers passing through the airport.
Airport officials say domestic passengers should arrive at least two hours before departure while international travelers should arrive at least three hours early.
Passengers should allow additional time for parking, drop-offs and pickups.
The airport’s website has live parking availability and security checkpoint wait times.

The Politics Bar
Weekdays at 6pm
Jody Hamilton and Shawn "Smith" Peirce are the proprietors of The Politics Bar, a progressive audio show that recreates the spirit of the old neighborhood bar where friends could discuss the news of the day without starting a brawl. Jody is an Emmy-nominated, award-winning media producer, actress, and radio host—daughter of TV producer Joe Hamilton and comedy legend Carol Burnett—who's made her own mark in media through "The Carol Burnett: Show Stoppers," "The Porkchop Playhouse," "From The Bunker" podcast, and her work as executive producer and fill-in host of "The Stephanie Miller Show". Shawn is a long-time national media producer and radio talent who's one of the few producers in U.S. political media to have worked on the left, right, and center, including more than a decade with "The Randi Rhodes Show" and stints producing "The Stephanie Miller Show," "The Bill Press Show," "The Laura Ingraham Radio Show," and "The Steele & Ungar Show" for SiriusXM. The show airs weeknights on progressive radio affiliates nationwide and is available on-demand through podcast platforms and Substack subscription.
