Final Recommendation

For the fastest and most efficient travel, I recommend flying with Delta Airlines or Southwest Airlines. The flight takes only about 1 hour and 30 minutes, and while it might be more expensive than a bus, the time saved will allow you to enjoy more of your stay in Atlanta. However, if you prefer a scenic route and want to drive, taking your own vehicle via I-75 N is also a great option that provides flexibility.
