Gate-adjacent tech stop near most concourses
InMotion at MSY Terminal 1 sits airside along the main concourse, so you pass it after security on the way to most gates. It’s the airport’s primary spot for last‑minute electronics, from headphones to power banks. Expect national‑chain pricing rather than bargains, but the selection runs deep enough to bail you out if something fails right before boarding.
They typically open early in the morning and run into the late evening to match peak bank times for Southwest, Delta, and United in Terminal 1. You’ll see the usual big brands on the wall: JBL and Sony for over‑ear and in‑ear headphones, plus Apple and Samsung accessories. Figure on paying around $30–$40 for a basic wired headset and $60–$150+ for wireless options.
Phone chargers and cables sit near the entrance, with Lightning, USB‑C, and older micro‑USB covered. A basic cable usually runs around $20, while small power banks hover in the $30–$60 range depending on capacity. If you forgot a wall adapter for international travel from MSY’s limited long‑haul options, look for multi‑country plug kits on the accessory rack.
They also stock travel add‑ons like Bluetooth speakers, small tripods, and cases, all at typical airport markups of roughly 10–25% over big‑box stores. No notable loyalty perks or local discounts surfaced in reviews. One practical move: test headphones and cables on your phone at the counter before you walk back to a C‑gate boarding area.
