Thanks.  Many answers outside of our timing (order from bank, order from AAA).   
Looks like ATM at airport destination is likely it.

ATM upon arrival is almost always the cheapest and easiest way, as you can see in those threads.  Remember to decline the option to run the transaction in US dollars (that's the "DCC scam" that is always a horrible exchange rate): https://onemileatatime.com/guides/dynamic-currency-conversion/

Which bank is your debit card from?  Some more premium checking accounts will have lower or zero fees for foreign cash withdrawals.  But check your account to see what the fees are.  Sometimes there is a "per transaction" fee, so consider trying to minimize the number of withdrawals you will do, balanced with not taking out too much cash that you are left with a whole bunch when you leave.

If you really want some euros in hand before departure, and are willing to make the journey and take what is probably a horrible exchange rate, this place looks like it would work.  I'd probably call before you went to make sure they have the appropriate cash types you need.

But truly, ATM withdrawal upon arrival (at a bank ATM which doesn't charge added fees) is almost always the best option.[/quote]
