Default Can I make it from Hartsfield-Atlanta Airport to 2965 Flowers Road in North Atlanta in an hour's time?

Driving Directions from 6000 N Terminal Pkwy Ste 4000, Atlanta, GA to 2965 Flowers Rd S, Atlanta, GA

I will be arriving at Hartsfield-Atlanta at 7:15ish AM and I have to be at the above destination (2965 Flowers Road) at 8:30 AM. I would be spending 90% of the cab ride going north on I-85, per the map above.

Can this be done in at least an hour with Monday rush hour traffic in Atlanta?

You should be fine. After you get through traffic downtown on I-85 the pace will pickup because people are driving south I-85 in the am. Your map states about 30 min and you say you have an hour. Add in time for traffic and small delays you ought to be fine.

Great! As long as I'm there at 8:30, I'll be happy; the cab ride is probably going to be expensive though. Thank you!

In the future, if you have time, take the MARTA train in the airport to Doraville Train Station (avoid all traffic and just $2) and then catch a $5 cab ride to Flowers Rd! CLK

Yeah, expect that cab ride to be approx. $55.00+.

An excellent suggestion; travel time will probably be right at an hour, though.

You should be ok, but don't check any bags. Sometimes the wait at baggage claim can be horrendous.
