Kelly's travel tip: A guide on how to use the international terminal

May 16, 2012-Atlanta-The Maynard H. Jackson Jr. International Terminal officially opened its doors today as passengers from around the globe got their first look at the new facility. The first departure from the 1.2 million-square-foot facility was Delta Airlines Flight 295 to Tokyo, Japan. Passengers aboard Delta Flight 177 from Dublin, Ireland, were the first to arrive at the international terminal's 12-gate Concourse F. Construction of the terminal began in the summer of 2008 and the $1.4 billion facility has eight security checkpoint lanes for international departing passengers and five recheck lanes for domestic connecting passengers.

May 6, 2013 - Atlanta, Ga: The International Terminal is shown with the main control tower in the background Monday morning in Atlanta, Ga., May 6, 2013. A year after Hartsfield-Jackson's $1.4 billion international terminal opened, there are still quirks that irk some travelers. The new terminal and Concourse F finally has its full array of restaurants, but it still is lacking some planned amenities. Among the changes that travelers are less enthused about are the lack of a MARTA stop and the long walk from arriving international flights on Concourse E to baggage claim.
