r/ElPaso

Hey everyone,
My flight lands at El Paso Airport around 11:45pm, and I have a car rental pickup scheduled for 6:00am the next morning.

I’m basically trying to figure out if I can stay inside the airport overnight until morning.

I’ve seen that the airport seems to be closed from around 12am–3am, which is making me unsure.

For context:
I don’t need food or services (I’ll have my own snacks)
I just need a place to stay inside the terminal and wait it out safely
I’m not planning to leave the airport
Has anyone done something similar at El Paso Airport?
Will they let passengers stay inside overnight, or do they actually make everyone leave during closing hours?
Any advice or personal experience would be appreciated.

The theory is flock requires ai data centers to store all of our info. Ai is still very much still in its infancy and is being run by irresponsible people who want control. Add another reason why we don’t want data centers here in El Paso.

I was at a store here on the west side today and the manager rather loudly was lamenting to his coworker how much he hated having to move to the west side because of all the snobbery and how much he missed working and living with people who are more salt of the Earth.

I mean, I know we’ve all joked about how different they are, but I’ve never judged anyone for being from either side of town especially because broad generalizations are nobody’s friend, as the saying goes.

it’s not that serious …is it ?

Anyone recommend or know of any places that are open late for studying or to just sit somewhere and safely read a book . I know there’s Starbucks and other coffee shops but I wanted to see if anyone could vouch for any space they know of.

Thanks ✌🏻

To be blunt, the craft beer scene here feels totally dead or completely unoriginal.

I’ve tried a couple of local popular spots and everything tastes watered down or completely uninspired. It feels like the city is 10 years behind on beer trends. Please prove me wrong and drop some actual good local breweries,
I've been trying really hard to find something to love about the local beer scene here, but it’s mostly just people trying too hard to hype up mediocrity because it has a local label on it.

Hi! I'm starting a monthly horror series at the Montecillo Flix if there are any fans of horror out there. It'll mostly be focusing on the 70's-90's. It's the last Wednesday of the month at 8:30 and tix are $5.55 (I make no money from this)

Our first screening is of Possession on the 27th! I hope to make it a fun time with some trivia and a chance to see some gems on the big screen. Check it out if you're interested and our ig is metropolfilmclub if you can't make this one and want to see what we're showing next month.

The U.S. Wants to Ban China’s High-Tech Cars, but They’re Already Here in El Paso.

Passing by in the late afternoon, around 5pm-ish, there was a row of black SUVs parked in line by the entrance with what looked like security (all in black suits) standing outside. Who was there?

If anyone has or knows of someone who has an old Dodge van, and is willing to sell, please reach out! I don’t mind if the vehicle is in rough shape

Im trying to socialize and network more in El Paso, anyone know of any good places to start??? I've heard of the Falstaff, cafeconlecheept... anyone know of any other good spots?

For nurses in particular. Thinking of moving to El Paso from South Texas, and wondering how’s the job market over there? Is it easy to find a job?

I was on my way to work this morning and happened to go by Hanks. While waiting at the light, I noticed Carl's was closed with all the signage removed. Does anyone know when it closed? I could've sworn I saw it open a few weeks ago.

Trying to do some spring cleaning in my parents house / garage and dealing with a lot of cables for outdated electronics (think charging cables for Nokia brick cell phones), broken computer monitors, old DVD players etc.

Was curious if there was a good spot in town to take these things to get recycle or reused? Any suggestions would be immense, thanks in advance!

There is a national FB group (Say No to Data Centers) and a Texas FB group (Texans United Against Data Centers), as well as various city specific groups. I would like one platform to share all El Paso info (as well as info from other places that has been effective), but would prefer not to use FB. As things are now, I read posts here, on Nextdoor, IG, FB - it's exhausting and I know I'm missing things. Would Reddit be the right platform? Bluesky? Discord? Other? What's difficult is FB is old and well known and easy to use....appreciate any opinions.
