Charging stations
Outlets cluster near gate seating on Concourse B and C and inside the second-level Business Center on Concourse C; coverage is inconsistent gate-to-gate, especially in the not-yet-renovated parts of Concourse A. Most major US airports — including ALB — provide a mix of USB-A, USB-C, and standard 120 V outlets at gate seating. Bring your own cable; cables are not supplied at charging kiosks.
