CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. — In less than 24 hours, parking fees at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport will go up.
Channel 2 Action News was at the airport when officials announced the decision to increase parking fees at all of its lots, just over a week ago.
The change takes effect at midnight on May 1.
Speaking with Channel 2 Action News, airport assistant general manager Tyronia Smith said the fees are increasing to handle a need for the airport to provide more parking options, better services and a higher load of travelers passing through.

“We think that competitive pricing won’t affect the capacity, we think our garages will still be full, and the demand is still there for additional capacity, which is why we’re still building the south deck phase 1 and other parking facilities as well,” Smith told Channel 2 Action News previously.
