The airport, the ground game, and whether you need a car for a business trip to Global Payments’s Atlanta headquarters — from our verified where-to-stay data.
Which airport for Global Payments
ATL ~25 min · MARTA rail: yes (Buckhead / Lenox). Atlanta is a one-airport town — Hartsfield-Jackson (ATL), the world’s busiest, south of downtown. MARTA’s rail line runs straight from the airport into Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead, so an in-town meeting can skip the car.
The ground reality in Atlanta
ATL is one of the few Southern airports with a real rail link: MARTA’s Red/Gold line runs from the airport to Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead in 15–30 minutes for a couple of dollars, beating traffic on the Connector. For the northern suburbs — Alpharetta, Sandy Springs, the perimeter — MARTA does not reach, so it is a rideshare or rental.
