Hartsfield-Jackson Renames Cell Phone Lot to “Park & Wait Lot”
Thursday, May 29th, 2025
Drivers picking up passengers at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport will notice a name change at a familiar spot: the Cell Phone Lot is now the Park & Wait Lot.
Starting May 29, signage at the lot will be updated to reflect the new name, designed to better communicate its purpose as a free, short-term parking area for those waiting on arriving travelers.
The change is part of ATL’s broader strategy to reduce curbside congestion, especially during peak times. Many drivers bypass the lot, leading to backups on the roadways. These challenges often cause delays, reduce operational efficiency, and negatively affect traveler satisfaction. The Park & Wait Lot offers a safer, more convenient option, helping keep roadways clear and improving the passenger experience.
