Austin is the State Capital of Texas and is currently the fastest growing of Americas’ 50 largest cities. Recently dubbed ‘The Live Music Capital of the World,’ Austin is an increasingly popular destination for work and pleasure. When looking for jet charter from YYZ to AUS, here are a few things you should know.
The only main international airport close to Austin is the Austin-Bergstrom International (AUS) airport. Helpfully the airport is conveniently situated 6 miles from the city center. There are a few smaller airports in the greater Austin area - notably Austin Executive (EDC), Georgetown Municipal Airport (KGTU) and San Marcos Regional Airport (KHYI), but you will more than likely be using Austin-Bergstrom International (AUS) to arrive.
Austin is situated in the hill country of Central Texas and is warm and pleasant most of the year. If you are travelling between May and September however, be prepared for some hot weather and leave the jerseys and jackets behind.
Grab the Austin Chronicle when you arrive. Published every Thursday, it will be your guide to everything that's going on in Austin from theatre to festivals, music and food. Austin has more music venues per capita than any other US City and make sure to check out the food scene as well, as there are many high-end, destination restaurants.
Austin offers a wide range of hotel options, just make sure to book in advance as they often get full during festivals. If you’ve got some time off in the day, it may be worth a short jaunt on a train into the Texas hill country or you could take some time to enjoy any of Austin’s varied natural attractions, some of which, like Barton Springs Pool are located in the heart of the city.
If it’s work that has you headed for ‘Silicon Hills,’ then a chartered jet from YYZ to AUS will get you there in a business frame of mind. Do make space in your schedule for some time off to enjoy some live music, or even just the City and its quint-essential Texas character.
