Cheap Flights from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson (ATL) to Memphis International (MEM)

Atlanta is an indispensable part of American history. The city itself was utterly destroyed in the wake of the war, but it was built from the ground up and went on to flourish in every way imaginable, to the point now where it is widely thought of as a cultural, political, and social center of the Southeast.

Memphis is also a long-time favorite of the South, and is located 337 miles to the West of Georgia’s state capital. Non-stop flights from Atlanta to Memphis can be booked with AirTran Airways and Delta Air Lines; standard gate-to-gate trip times are 1 hour and 21 minutes.

All-aboard at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson

Busy is one way to describe Atlanta’s primary airport; ultra-high levels of annual passenger traffic is probably better though! Until the end of 2014, Hartsfield-Jackson International was the busiest in the world for total number of flight take-offs and landings, a record it held for nine consecutive years.

Although O’Hare out of Chicago has now surpassed its southern competitor, the fact that 95 million visitors are accommodated by the Georgia airfield is simply astonishing. Each year, one million flights are conducted to and from the airport, which spans 4,700 acres and contains 198 passenger gates (more than any in the world). A surplus of visitor features and amenities are available at the facility, including WiFi access, restaurants, shops, and pet relief areas.

Memorable Memphis

Based at the convergence of the Wolf and Mississippi Rivers and the largest city in Tennessee (along with the 3^rd biggest in the Southeast), Memphis is a place long known for being home to Elvis’ Graceland mansion and where many other famous musicians, including Johnny Cash, B.B. King, and Jerry Lee Lewis launched their careers.
