Dedicated charging stations
USB-A/C charging strips are built into the window-counter seating along the full length of the terminal; no standalone kiosk towers, but the built-in outlets are at virtually every window position.
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
