Just curious, what the he?? kind of cargo is being shipped in mass quantities from DBX to ATL?
After visiting DBX a few different times, I personally don't see the allure at all for tourists (other than the novelty of skiing in an indoor shopping mall which get's old after the first 30 minutes) and surely did not see an export that was worthy of mass import unless there is a shortage of sand, heat or humidity in the US.

Do you recall the UPS 747 that caught fire and crashed there? I don't know all the details, but I do know there were a whole lot of those NiCad batteries on board as cargo, you know, the same type that the 787 uses...
Now, I know none of anything is actually manufactured in DXB, but it is a shipping hub from China and India to the USA.

You will still have to buy a "tax ticket" to Jumpseat on DL internationally to certain locations... Once you do that, then they will be able to list you on the flight. CASS is not recognized for the FD or anything for this flight - just show up early to the ticket counter in ATL (once you get there) and let them know what you want to do. From there, they will be able to take care of everything.
