Internet at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport

A few weeks ago I spent a few hours waiting for my plane at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. As most of you know it’s a big modern airport. However, as far as I was concerned, for such a big and modern airport it was sadly lacking in something that I would have considered essential…proper sit-down areas where you can use a PC and log onto the Internet.

I’ll tell you what they did have:

  • Wireless (WiFi) Internet access for those of you lucky enough to have wireless mobile devices.
  • A strange VDU terminal stuck up on a wall for Internet access and for which you have to stand to use.

Where were those areas where you can just buy a pre-paid card or pay by the minute like those Internet Cafés? A place to just sit down. A place to relax and look at your paperwork, etc.

The environment at the airport was just so sterile. I didn’t like it. Atlanta shouldn’t feel proud with this airport. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is possibly the worst of the modern airports I’ve been to. What a waste!
