While I’m with you on opening bases and that ATL can be a single point of failure for us, you’d be hard pressed to find a better run operation than Atlanta.
The controllers are top notch, the layout is efficient, and things flow exceptionally well most days. I’ve never waited an 1:20 for takeoff on a VFR day in ATL like I have multiple times in JFK.
