Puffinater Posted June 17, 2010 #1 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Need some help with shuttle drive times to the port. If we were to fly in same day to IAH arriving 9:30am would we be ok? Also what would be the latest arrival into Hobby? I understand the fly in same day thing but this might be our only alternative. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Allow an hour from HOU Hobby and an hour and a half from IAH Intercontinental Airport Houston (aka George Bush Airport) to the cruise terminal. Those are travel times with no traffic or construction snarls. If you are flying into HOU and want something challenging, arrive after noon time during summertime traffic when there is road construction on one of the freeways and/or an activity going on in Houston or Galveston.

dna1990 Posted June 18, 2010 #3 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Yep, list the day of the week and if near any holiday - those can darn near double txskier's estimate Also don't forget about the time at the airport. If your plane is set to land at 9:30, there is still maybe 30-60+ minutes to deplane, claim bags, find shuttle, wait for other pax, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------ Arriving IAH 9:30 am ----NO PROBLEM Arriving Hobby up to 11:00 am ----NO PROBLEM Neither are at rush hours and "major" construction projects are not happening currently. Those projects that snarred traffic over the last couple of years (the fly over at Nasa Rd One on 45) is 95 % finished. Construction projects should not be a problem.

Just make sure it isn't one of the 2 main spring break weekends in Texas (mid march). Traffic will be backed up to Houston trying to get to the island. Our last 2 spring breaks have been ridiculously crowded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
