Shopping
Northwest Arkansas (XNA) Airport Shopping
Shopping at Northwest Arkansas National 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 — XNA has no duty-free shop. As a domestic-only airport with no nonstop international routes, there's no demand for a duty-free concession.
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
No dedicated bookstore; Arkansas Traveler News & Café (post-security atrium) and CNBC News & Café (Concourse A, near Gate A7) both carry magazines, newspapers, and paperbacks alongside snacks and travel items.
Convenience & travel essentials
Arkansas Traveler News & Café (post-security atrium) and CNBC News & Café (Concourse A, near Gate A7) cover convenience/newsstand needs; Say Si Bon! Gourmet Market (post-security atrium) adds grab-and-go food, snacks, and local Arkansas products.
Hudson News is at most gate areas throughout Northwest Arkansas National Airport — a reliable last-minute stop for charging cables, snacks, OTC medicine, and reading material before any departure.
Tech & electronics
No dedicated electronics or tech shop (no InMotion, Best Buy Express, or Apple-adjacent kiosk confirmed at XNA); the newsstands may stock basic phone cables, but travelers should bring their own tech accessories to be safe.
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 — no dedicated fashion or apparel boutique. Arkansas Traveler News & Café and CNBC News & Café carry limited Razorback- and Arkansas-themed souvenir apparel.
Best shopping area
The post-security atrium, home to Say Si Bon! Gourmet Market and Arkansas Traveler News & Café, is XNA's main retail hub and sits at the junction leading to both Concourse A and Concourse B.
Pro Tip
XNA is a small regional airport with no duty-free and no big-box tech retailer — pick up electronics, adapters, or specialty items before you arrive. The newsstands reliably cover snacks, drinks, and last-minute reading material but not much beyond that.
