FuelRod, a leading provider of portable power solutions, has announced an exclusive promotion at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS), allowing travelers to swap their depleted FuelRod chargers for fresh ones at no cost. Running through November 30, this initiative is the first of its kind at any airport and underscores FuelRod’s commitment to ensuring reliable access to power and a stress-free travel experience.
Travelers at AUS can now take advantage of the convenience of swapping their depleted FuelRods for fully charged ones up to 10 times per month, free of charge. The process is simple and can be completed at any of the several FuelRod kiosks throughout the airport. Users need only select the “swap” button, enter a phone number, and exchange the used rod for a fresh one. Phone numbers are collected to track the 10-use limit. For those who prefer not to provide a phone number, the standard swap fee of $1 applies.
This initiative makes Austin-Bergstrom International Airport the first airport to offer such a promotion, setting a new standard for passenger comfort and convenience. The collaboration with FuelRod reflects a shared commitment to keeping travelers charged and connected by ensuring a reliable portable power source for their devices. FuelRod hopes this promotion will inspire similar initiatives nationwide, bringing sustainable charging solutions to travelers across the country.
“We are extremely proud of our partnership with Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and their support of our vision for easily accessible, eco-friendly charging for travelers on the go,” said Joe Yeagley, FuelRod Co-founder. “AUS, as the first airport to sponsor the FuelRod ‘Swap’ service, exemplifies Texas hospitality and demonstrates their commitment to providing an elevated experience for their passengers.”
