Most of the male passengers fought on the ground, while several females stood on chairs and kicked out at them from above.
Another angle shows one girl leaping onto the chairs before kicking and punching at a boy below, while he in turn attacks another person.
It’s unclear whether the passengers involved knew each other before the fight broke out.
The chaos appears to have cleared the area as only those involved in the brawl can be seen in the departure lounge.
Other passengers can be seen scurrying past the camera in a bid to escape the violence.
Atlanta police say they responded to reports of a large disturbance at the airport, but by the time they got to the gate, the crowd had dispersed.
