[MARTA rail at ATL: boarding point and full details](https://atlairportguide.com/transport/marta-rail/) ## Taxi Taxis load at Aisle A of the Ground Transportation Center: stalls A3 to A10 on ATL's ground transportation page, A3 to A12 on the airport's terminal map. At the International Terminal they load on the arrivals level outside door A1. Ask the driver for the fare before you get in. ## Rideshare Uber and Lyft pick up in the North Economy lot: go through North baggage claim to the escalators between doors N2 and N3, follow the orange signs, and request the ride only after you reach the pickup spot. ATL's ground transportation page words that spot as door LN1. ## Good to know - MARTA's line pages and station list do not name the campus, and Discover Atlanta does not say which stop is closer to a given building. Use the address of your hotel, lab or event. A wrong guess costs one stop.
