St. Thomas (STT) Airport Charging Stations
Gate outlet coverage at Cyril E. King Airport is limited — bring a power bank. VI Port Authority does not publish any information about a dedicated charging program at STT, and no gate-by-gate outlet count could be verified. Some visitor guides mention outlets in the upper-floor waiting areas, but this is unconfirmed and the terminal is old enough (main building completed 1990) that seating is unlikely to have modern built-in USB power at most positions. USB-A and standard outlets are the primary charging options.

Best charging spots
These are the most reliable places to charge at Cyril E. King Airport:
- Check wall outlets along the perimeter of the upper-floor Domestic Passenger Lounge seating areas — availability is first-come, first-served and not guaranteed
- The Airport Bar and Rum Room and Hibiscus Café seating areas sometimes have outlets near booth seating
- Ask a Concessions International staff member at any food/beverage counter — they can point you to whatever outlets are currently working
Dedicated charging stations
None confirmed. There is no evidence of a dedicated charging kiosk, bar, or tower anywhere in the terminal.
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
Do not count on finding a free outlet at STT — it's a small, older terminal without a documented charging program. Arrive with your phone and laptop charged, and pack a portable battery pack if you'll need power during a layover or delay.
