- West concourse (expanded 2022), gates 18–32 — USB-C at nearly all seats
- Main food hall post-security, Barbara Jordan Terminal — charging at most tables
- Central connector area between east and west concourses — outlet strips at seating counters
Dedicated charging stations
Dedicated charging station areas are in the main food hall post-security and in the west concourse connector; the South Terminal has limited but functional charging at gate counter seating.
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.

AUS gets especially busy during SXSW (March) and ACL Fest (October) — arrive early to secure a gate seat with an outlet; the west concourse tends to have the most available charging even when the airport is at capacity.
