Georgia → Florida · Interstate 75 / Interstate 85
What does it actually cost to drive from Atlanta, Georgia, to Orlando, Florida? The hard numbers: 763 km (474 miles) of pavement primarily along Interstate 75 / Interstate 85, 7h 16m behind the wheel, and roughly $63.85 in fuel alone — that is 69.4 liters (18.3 gallons) of regular unleaded at a 0.92 USD/liter benchmark. Anyone leaving Atlanta, the capital of Georgia and largest economic and aviation hub in the Southeast, typically carries samples, signed proposals, or service equipment to deliver in Orlando, the central Florida theme-park capital and a top US convention destination, and aims to be home the same evening. It is worth confirming whether the haul fits inside your daily hours-of-service window or whether an overnight at a midpoint hotel makes more sense. Applying the IRS standard mileage rate (2025) mileage rate of $0.43/km ($0.69/mile), the gross outbound reimbursement settles at $328.09. Attach the visit purpose, client name, and plate number to the Clara receipt so the journal entry lands directly in the business-travel expense account.
