Essentially this is basically the SC for the UMs in ATL. There are plans to expand it to more hubs but right now it is in ATL's B, C, and E.

I must say as someone that is closer to that age group than the average person on here, it is a great idea. DL should definitely consider having that as a part of the SC -- it could definitely bring them a lot more money. Parents could drop kids off in the Sky Zone while they go to the SC or elsewhere.

From the first picture there it looks like it's just north of B centerpoint. The gate across there is A19.

My one issue about it is the games for the Xbox 360s. They are secured in see-through cases (just like stores have the ones for demos.) Yes they are worth >$200 these days so I'm not surprised they are in cases. When I went to the Beaches Turks and Caicos they had something similar with Xbox 360s, one game was in the console and you played it. I just hope that somehow games can be switched out because I imagine they don't have 30 consoles there and not every kid wants to play the same game.
The Sky Zones have been around for a while--they're in many different airports now. They (at least in ATL) used to be called Dusty's Den and served some type of special drink (that I believe could only be found there) called Pawberry Punch or something like that.
