Recalculate it to AUS.OLD. Delta uses the old airport's location for DEN when calculating MQMs, and I suspect the same is true for AUS. This may explain the dichotomy if they are calculating the return flight from the new airport for that display....

GCMap calculations from SEA show 1770 to AUS but only 1764 to AUS.OLD.
