Top Airport in World Gets Stricter about Security

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the top airport in the world, based on the number of passengers that it accommodated in 2004. Because it processes so many passengers (and in light of the 9/11 aircraft hijackings), the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport has imposed strict security measures that all passengers have to follow, both for their own protection and the safety of other passengers and the crew of the aircraft.
