New York to Atlanta Travel Guide

Atlanta attracts New Yorkers with promises of peaches and hip hop. Located in Georgia, the city has served as stomping grounds for artists such as Ludacris, Outkast, Gucci Mane and Lil Jon. Considered by many to be the capital of the New South, Atlanta is home to some of the world's largest companies, including Coca-Cola. Nicknamed the ATL after its airport - the busiest in the world - Atlanta takes a relaxed but cosmopolitan attitude to life, from inventive interpretations of Southern comfort food to the colorful public murals that dot the urban landscape.

New York's vertical landscape and packed subway may feel very different from sprawling, car-centric Atlanta, but visitors find that the two cities share much in common. Like New York City, Atlanta boasts a large entertainment industry, serving as filming locations for "Forest Gump" and "The Hunger Games" series. Both cities are meccas for the LGBT community and love a good micro-brew. Whereas New Yorkers get a secret thrill seeing their city in apocalypse movies, Atlantans go all in on zombies. The city hosts zombie festivals, zombie runs and zombie parades, as well as serving as the filming location for the TV show "The Walking Dead".

Find flights fast using our smart search engine. With an average of four flights leaving New York every hour for Atlanta, we make it easy to get the cheapest price.
