Austin’s airport perfectly embodies the city’s famous slogan: "Keep Austin Weird." Known as the "Live Music Capital of Airports," AUS features regular live music performances by local artists, creating an energetic and welcoming atmosphere. Foodies can sample Texas BBQ from the famed Salt Lick, grab tacos from Tacodeli, or sip on locally crafted brews. The terminal itself is a celebration of Austin’s culture, featuring art installations, local businesses, and a relaxing open-air patio where travelers can unwind with fresh air.
