In an age of climate crisis and heightened environmental awareness, we believe it’s every institution’s job to aim lower – reduce activities that are harmful to the environment – and higher – increase contributions and activities that impact the environment in positive ways and offset harmful activities.
As an airport, we run a critical, 24/7 operation for Austin and the Central Texas region. We do our part in assessing the daily operations and activities that are under our (the airport, not the airlines or our partners) control to find either alternative or more environmentally friendly solutions, or ways to reduce our reliance…

Air travel is amazing. A marvel in and of itself. I mean, we really went above and beyond with that one. Right now, there are humans going 500+ miles an hour 30,000+ feet above our heads – HUH?!
