Atlanta minimum connection time needed
 
Hi Just wondering what the minimum connection time I would need for a flight landing
in Atlanta then connecing to Pensacola? The thing is hubby will need wheelchair assistance
from the plane door to the next gate so really am wanting to find out what anyone suggests

I usually like at least 1.5 hours in ATL. Since it's such a busy airport give yourself plenty of time.

With wheelchair and unpredictable gate/terminal assignments at ATL, I think you need at least 90 minutes.

I would agree that with wheelchair I would allow up to 90 minutes. It's entirely possible have to go the length of the airport for a domestic connection. The plane train is quite fast and efficient but the wheelchair element would make me pad timing (both waiting for someone to arrive and then waiting for the elevator, etc.).

Without wheelchair, I actually just booked a trip that has 44 minute connections on both the outbound and return. That timing is doable when everything is on schedule but requires walking quite quickly if you do end up having to go from say A to E for your connection
