Terminal detail

Know your terminal before you head in

Helpful planning notes for each terminal. Live TSA and flights below still stay airport-wide unless a terminal-specific source exists.

2 terminal zones

Terminal

Barbara Jordan Terminal

Traffic pattern

Handles most of the mainline volume and feels busiest during early business and leisure departures.

Travel context

This is the terminal most travelers mean when they say AUS.

Expect: A fuller airport experience and steadier checkpoint demand.

Terminal

South Terminal

Traffic pattern

Traffic tends to move in smaller, more obvious waves.

Travel context

Separate terminal access means you should verify the right terminal before leaving for the airport.

Expect: A simpler feel, but less forgiving if you arrive at the wrong building.

Terminal notes below are guidance-only. TSA and flights remain airport-wide unless a live terminal source exists.

Plan ahead

Travel tips

Best arrival time

Arrive 2 hours early, and add a little extra on festival weekends and Monday mornings.

Peak hours

5:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM.

Pro tips

Terminal choice matters because the two terminals are not connected airside.
Rideshare and pickup lots can slow down quickly after major city events.
Morning departures often stack up faster than the compact footprint suggests.
