Travelers passing through Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) in October have the opportunity to engage with a range of Formula 1-themed activities and merchandise offerings. To fully enjoy these experiences, passengers are advised to arrive 2.5 hours early for domestic flights and 3 hours for international flights.

Among the highlights is a LEGO racecar display, situated near the H sign in the lower-level arrivals zone. This collaboration between LEGO and Formula 1 offers travelers a chance to take memorable photos before heading to their destinations.

For those looking to gear up with F1 merchandise, several shops within AUS offer an array of apparel. The Austin Chronicle, Austin Vibes, and Jetset provide options for hats, jackets, and shirts that allow fans to show their support for the sport.

Toy Joy & Yummi Joy near Gate 11 feature a collection of Formula 1 racecar models from brands such as Bburago and MAISTO. These collectibles include models like the Ferrari SF-23 #16.

Additionally, XpresSpa offers a discount on massage services for local special-event ticket holders and event workers. Located near Gates 15 and 22, XpresSpa provides a chance for travelers to relax during their journey.

Tito's Handmade Vodka presents its own version of ACL with the Austin Cherry Limeade cocktail available at various airport locations including Saxon Pub, Haymaker, The Salt Lick BBQ, and Hippies & Hops. For every drink sold, Tito's donates $1 to HAAM (Health Alliance for Austin Musicians), supporting affordable healthcare for self-employed musicians in Austin.

To assist passengers in navigating these offerings within AUS, a wayfinding map is accessible online at airportmaps.flyaustin.com.
