While it may seem like an unlikely candidate to beat out airports in cities like Shanghai, London or New York, Atlanta serves as a massive hub for US and international travellers. According to the ACI, "with almost 104 million passengers, the airport is within a two-hour flight of 80% of the United States’ population."
