In 2019, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport handled over 110 million passengers, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

The airport has a total of 192 gates and five parallel runways, which enables it to handle a large number of flights every day. The airport also has a wide range of amenities and services for passengers, including shops, restaurants, and lounges.

Other airports that are among the busiest in the US include:
