I've been to ATL a few times using Aeroplans. 25K for me though (from YVR), but well worth it considering the cost is usually $600+. I've even splurged for J to ATL twice, because it's such a looong day (usually connecting in IAH, ORD or DEN), which is great value, even if J on United isn't terribly exciting!

ATL is one crazy airport. I recommend NEVER checking a bag when you go. One of mine got lost there (but I did get it back several days later).
