Airport status: AUS is currently open. Please check with your airline for the latest flight information.
Oct. 1, 2025 United States Federal Government Shutdown: Based on previous federal government shutdowns, AUS does not anticipate immediate significant changes for travelers. Employees that work in federal roles that are critical to operating the airport are expected to report for duty. However, travelers may encounter lines for passenger processing activities and flight delays depending how long the shutdown lasts.
Passenger safety and security is our number one priority and we will coordinate with federal partners at the Federal Aviation Administration, the Transportation Security Administration, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Transportation during the shutdown.
