6 AM Flight Out of ATL

What time should I get to airport?
It's for an International Frontier flight.
How does one even do a 6am flight.
Haven't done one in ages.
Will be at an airport prior to it so any suggestions for ATL hotel with 24 hour shuttle?

Do you have pre check? If so, Check the pre check hours but I think they are open early. Most decent hotels will have 24 hour or early morning shuttles. But an alternative idea is to stay at a dmcc (conference center) hotel and the car rental center train stops there. They tend to be pricey for the convenience though.
I’d get there at 4am to be safe, assuming you aren’t checking luggage or if you are, have some status. No idea what ordinary lines are like. Sorry.

Most ATL hotels have 24 hrshuttle service. You need to check. Some don’t or they only do say 5am- midnight.

it’s hard to say which ones without looking teach hotel web page or call the hotel. Some hotels list them in with amenities but others say the details in their story description. Some airports hoteks have pooled shuttle service where the do stops at 3-5 hotels before going to the airport.

it’s also not universal by chain. You might have done many chains elsewhere and their hotels st airports have 24 hr shuttle but this one does not.

time is based on if you are doing carryon or checking bags? At this time it will be hard to predict TSA lines because of possible flight cancellations that have occurred the past few days and re-routing.

if I was staying at ATL hotel I’d be looking for a 4am shuttle.

remember pre-check is on the BLUE/domestic side of the airport, so you might walk all the way around
