What does AUS stand for?

  1. Austin

  2. Atlanta

  3. Asheville

  4. Anchorage

The correct answer is: Austin

AUS stands for Austin, which is the capital city of Texas. In the context of airline city codes, each code is typically derived from the name of the city it represents. For Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, the city code AUS has been established for easy identification and booking in airline systems. The other options represent different cities that have their own unique codes; for instance, Atlanta is coded as ATL, Asheville is AVL, and Anchorage is ANC. Each of these codes serves the specific purpose of identifying airports in their respective locations.
