Best charging spots
These are the most reliable places to charge at Reno-Tahoe International Airport:
- Main concourse near gates 10–20 (central area) — USB-A at most gate seats
- Window-counter seating throughout the concourse — outlet strips at all counter positions
- Pre-security food and gaming area — outlet strips for early arrivals
Dedicated charging stations
Dedicated charging kiosk towers are near the main gate clusters in the central concourse area; the pre-security gaming and food area has outlet strips at most seating clusters.

RNO is a relaxed small airport where charging is easy to find — the compact single-concourse design means you're always within 30 feet of an outlet; a power bank is still a good backup given the older terminal infrastructure.
