Shopping and Services Guide at Atlanta Airport (ATL)

Atlanta Airport offers a wide range of shops and services, from luxury items and duty-free to last-minute essentials. But which spots provide a good experience—and which should you avoid? This guide is based on reviews from hundreds of travelers to help you navigate ATL's shopping options.
Quick Questions About Shopping and Services
- Are there any stores to avoid? Yes. Currency exchange booths like Travelex receive unanimous complaints for offering extremely poor exchange rates. Avoid them if you can or only exchange the bare minimum.
- How is the Duty Free? Duty Free Americas has a decent selection, but travelers report poor customer service and issues with gate delivery. Shop cautiously.
- Are there any 24-hour shops? Very few. Apart from some cosmetics kiosks and vending machines, convenience stores or currency exchange services, most shops close at night. Newsstands like Z-Market sometimes extend hours for delayed flights.
- Which stores are often criticized? Electronics stores like Inmotion and Duty Free Americas are frequently flagged for unhelpful staff, lack of interest, and problematic return policies.
- Are there any services really worth it? Yes, the Barber Shop Salon in the Domestic Terminal is praised for its fast and professional service. SUNMED (CBD store) also stands out for its exceptionally friendly staff.
- What about relaxation? XpresSpa offers massages and manicures, but experiences vary greatly—some find amazing therapists, others leave disappointed. It's a gamble.
- Where can I buy electronics if needed? There are several stores like Inmotion or Brookstone, but be cautious. Reviews warn about unhelpful staff and trouble returning faulty items. Buy only if it's urgent.

The Reality of Shopping at ATL: The Good, the Bad, and the Unexpected

Photo by Itsramona - Freeimages
Shopping at ATL can either feel like a mall-like experience or a source of frustration. Below, we break down what you need to know about the most talked-about services.
The Biggest Warning: Travelex Currency Exchange
If there's one service travelers unanimously recommend avoiding, it's this one. Reviews are full of warnings about "unfavorable" exchange rates. Users report losing up to 25% of their money compared to the real exchange rate, and this information is not presented transparently. The advice is clear: use an international credit card or a mobile payment app and avoid cash, or wait until you reach your destination to exchange money at a local bank — or only change the bare minimum for emergencies.
The Shops: An Inconsistent Experience
Shopping experiences at ATL vary drastically, with recurring issues in service and quality.
- Duty Free Americas: Despite the variety, it’s one of the most criticized shops. Travelers complain about rude and inattentive staff, problems with product delivery at the gate, and even question the authenticity of some perfumes.
- Electronics Stores (Inmotion, Brookstone): Convenient for a last-minute charger, but reviews warn about unhelpful staff, who often don’t honor posted sale prices, and most concerning, a very strict no-return policy — even for factory-defective products.
- Kiosks and Markets (Z-Market, etc.): The main complaint is the lack of visible prices on products, leading to checkout surprises. However, Z-Market is praised for staying open late to serve passengers from delayed flights.
Services That Surprise: The Good and Unexpected
It’s not all bad news. Some services at ATL stand out for offering genuinely positive experiences.
- Barber Shop Salon (Domestic Terminal): One of the airport's hidden gems. Most reviews praise the barbers for being quick, professional, and friendly, delivering a high-quality service few expect at an airport.
- SUNMED (CBD Store): A clear example of excellent customer service. Staff are consistently described as extremely kind, welcoming, and highly knowledgeable about their products, helping travelers manage flight anxiety.
- XpresSpa and The Chiroport: These wellness services are a gamble. You might get a life-saving session with an amazing therapist or chiropractor — or face a disappointing service and unprofessional staff. Worth it if you need relief, but keep in mind the quality isn’t guaranteed.
