Which concourses at ATL are international?

Concourses E and F handle ATL's international operations.

Concourses E and F at Hartsfield-Jackson handle the airport's international flights. Concourse E is the primary international concourse, hosting Delta's transatlantic widebody operations along with Air France, KLM, Lufthansa, British Airways, Korean Air, Turkish Airlines, and Virgin Atlantic.

Concourse F is the newer international concourse, opened in 2012 alongside the Maynard H. Jackson Jr. International Terminal. F handles long-haul carriers including Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad, Cathay Pacific, and additional Lufthansa and Air France flights.

International arriving passengers process through Federal Inspection Services (CBP) on the lower levels of E and F. Global Entry and Mobile Passport Control kiosks are available to expedite processing. After clearing CBP, connecting passengers re-enter the secure area through dedicated checkpoints to continue to domestic concourses.

Some Latin American flights (Mexico, Caribbean) operate from non-international concourses (typically C). U.S. Customs preclearance is not performed at ATL; arriving passengers from these destinations clear CBP at ATL on arrival like any other international flight.
