Transportation:
Auburn’s campus is about 110 miles from Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport (ATL). Groome Transportation (334-821-3399) offers a convenient shuttle service to and from the airport several times a day.
The airports in Columbus and Montgomery may appear more convenient, but you usually have to change planes in Atlanta, and the trip is longer. Moreover, Montgomery’s airport is almost as far away as Atlanta’s. You can also fly into Birmingham International. Often flights into Birmingham are cheaper than into Atlanta. None of these airports provides a scheduled shuttle service into/out of Auburn.
