Anchorage (ANC) Airport Charging Stations
Gate outlet coverage at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is limited — bring a power bank. ANC does not have widespread built-in seat-level outlets at most gates. Charging is concentrated at three dedicated free kiosks (each serving up to 16 devices) rather than in gate seating itself. USB-C ports are available throughout the airport.

Best charging spots
These are the most reliable places to charge at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport:
- C Concourse charging kiosks near gates C1 and C5 — the most ports airside
- B Concourse charging kiosk near gate B1
- Nursing/pumping rooms in C Concourse and on Level 1 behind the main escalators — include outlets and are usually quiet
Dedicated charging stations
Three free charging kiosks: two in C Concourse (near gates C1 and C5) and one in B Concourse (near gate B1), each with room for about 16 devices at once.
Bring your own charging cable — dedicated kiosk stations at US airports provide the power outlet but not the cable. USB-A, USB-C, and standard 120 V outlets are the most common configurations.
Pro Tip
The three dedicated kiosks fill up fast during peak departure banks. If they're full, check the hallway near the Rental Car Center/shuttle stop, which has a lesser-known wall outlet, or the nursing/pumping rooms in C Concourse, which include power outlets and rarely have a line.
