Panama City (ECP) Airport Charging Stations

Gate outlet coverage at Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport is most gates equipped with outlets. ECP is a single, compact terminal (opened 2010) with AC outlets and USB ports built into gate seating clusters along its one concourse (Gates 1–7); the airport does not publish an official outlet-by-outlet map, so coverage at every individual seat isn't guaranteed. USB-A and standard outlets are the primary charging options.

Best charging spots

These are the most reliable places to charge at Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport:

Military Welcome Center — dedicated cellphone charging stations, open daily 9:30am–5:30pm
Gate seating along the single concourse (Gates 1–5 jet-bridge level and Gates 6–7 ramp level)
Seating near Beach Time Grill, Grayton Beer Landing Strip, and Espressology on the concourse

Dedicated charging stations

The airport's officially confirmed dedicated charging spot is the Military Welcome Center inside the terminal (open daily 9:30am–5:30pm), which offers free cellphone charging stations, snacks, beverages, and Wi-Fi for active-duty and veteran travelers and their families.

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

ECP has no on-site EV charging for rental or personal vehicles (the nearest EV chargers are within roughly 20 miles), so charge an EV before you arrive. For phones and laptops, the Military Welcome Center is the one airport-confirmed dedicated charging spot — everything else is gate-seating outlets that aren't centrally mapped.
