Shopping
Jackson (JAN) Airport Shopping
Shopping at Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport spans convenience staples at Hudson News and tech accessories at InMotion through to local specialty gifts and duty-free for international travelers. See each section below for exact locations by concourse or terminal.
Duty-free shopping
None — JAN has no duty-free shop. The airport has no scheduled international passenger service (Delta, American, Southwest, and United all fly domestic routes here), so there's no customs-cleared retail. Buy duty-free at a connecting international hub if your itinerary has one.
US duty-free allowance
US residents may bring back $800 in duty-free goods per person. Liquids purchased at duty-free must be in the original sealed store bag when transiting international connections — otherwise they may be confiscated at the connecting airport security checkpoint.
Books & magazines
Hudson (operated by Avolta) is JAN's only newsstand/bookshop brand, with locations both pre-security and inside each concourse (East and West) post-security, carrying magazines, paperbacks, and travel reads alongside its general merchandise.
Convenience & travel essentials
Hudson (Avolta) covers convenience retail at JAN — pre-security and in both the East and West Concourses — with snacks, drinks, and travel sundries. There is no separate dedicated convenience chain beyond Hudson.
Hudson News is at most gate areas throughout Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport — a reliable last-minute stop for charging cables, snacks, OTC medicine, and reading material before any departure.
Tech & electronics
None — JAN has no dedicated electronics or tech retailer (no Best Buy Express, no InMotion). Hudson carries basic phone chargers/cables as part of its general merchandise; buy anything more specific before you arrive.
Best Buy Express kiosks carry Apple accessories, Bose headphones, and phone chargers at most major US airports. InMotion Entertainment is the other key tech stop — open at most gate clusters and stocked with travel-oriented electronics essentials.
Fashion & specialty retail
Standard airport convenience retail only — JAN has no dedicated fashion, jewelry, or apparel boutiques.
Best shopping area
Hudson (Avolta) is effectively the whole of JAN's retail — there isn't a stronger "shopping concourse" distinction, since the same newsstand brand operates on both the East and West sides.
Pro Tip
Don't plan on airport shopping at JAN — it's newsstand/convenience only (Hudson) plus a Shoe Shine Doctor stand in the East Concourse. Buy gifts, tech accessories, or anything specific before you arrive.
