flying in from outside the US?
Under the terms of the Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA), visitors from visa-waiver countries must apply online in advance for permission to enter the US by submitting biographical, passport and flight details, and avowing freedom from drug convictions, communicable diseases and criminal intentions. The programme, which has been optional since August, replaces the old paper-based system—the green I-94W forms once handed out on planes. (The ESTA is free and just about as simple to fill out as the paper form—steer clear of companies that charge a fee to help you.) Approved travellers can enter America for up to two years without reapplying, but those whose applications are denied will need to get a visa.The hotels we listed below are located about 15-20 minutes by taxi from the Austin airport.
