Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) earned the 2021 Airport Minority Advisory Council (AMAC) Airport of the Year Award. ATL was presented with the award during the virtual 36th Annual AMAC Airport Business Diversity Conference: Honoring the Legacy, Perfecting the Present & Building for the Future held June 14-16.
“This award is an honor and testament to Atlanta’s spirit of equity and inclusion. Thank you to our Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport team and our partners for representing the best of our city,” said Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms.
