    Terminal B is 1/2 way through renovation. Get there a tad early because you need to access gates after security through a large gate 30 min prior to boarding. P.S. no Restrooms or sitting area though.

    There is Free wifi by McDonald's in Gate A, right next to A17. It's fast and reliable... But you must endure Loud talking obnoxious people that are eating at the McDonald's.

    Have a meal before you fly. It'll be tastier and more nutritious than anything they serve in the air.

    Word to the wise: get your laptop out of your bag, take off your shoes and belt, and don't stand there holding up the security line if you want to get on your plane unharmed.

    My iPhone's personal hotspot provides way faster wifi to my laptop than the Bingo complimentary wifi at the airport.

    EcoPark is the way to go for parking. The shuttle service is the best at Bush.

    Take a picture next to the creepy George bush statue outside security in the C terminal, then go buy some cowboy boots. Gotta love Texas.

    If you need power for your phone or tablet don't expect to find it in terminal E. One or two plugs around the food area, none at E21... Way to go Houston.

    If you're in the mood for Texas BBQ I highly recommend the real food company in terminal c. I went with the beef brisket, beans and cole slaw. Outstanding.

    Gate E16 has an outlet to the left of the gate door. Great for us with laptops that have low batteries. Also if you use Firefox connect to Boingo wifi, it just downloads exe without installing. :-) Read more

    Customs opens at 5AM. So even if you arrive earlier you won't be able to deboard the plane.

    The parking at Terminal E is closed. You will need to park at Terminal C and take the train. Plan on coming early and looking for a space to park.

    IAH is huuuuuuge so wear sneakers or comfortable shoes. Even then, it's one of the nicer hub airports with lots of food options. I recommend terminal C or E for food (over the food court in B).

    You can find Blue Bell ice cream in the Rocky Mountain candy shop in terminal C. True taste of Texas. Yum.

    Get some Bose noise canceling headphones out of the Best Buy vending machine to drown out the white noise and screaming babies.

    If you're lucky you can catch a ride from gate to baggage claim on one of the carts! Leaving all those first off the plane in the dust.

    Make your way to Cat Cora's. Really the only restaurant worth sitting down at in the airport.

    Harlon's BBQ is the best. Located at Terminal B - corn bread only served on Fridays.

    A bit hectic. Try and pre organize a transfer. There are a hundred men asking if you need a taxi but I'm not sure how legit they all are.

    If you are flying United domestic our of terminal C and have to return a rental car with lots of luggage. Swoop past the curbside checkin first and then drop off the rental car.

    If you want the quickest exit, tell your arriving partner(s) to get to terminal b that way you all can just leave and get to i45 or beltway8 with ease. d;)

    Welcome to the worst typography in airport signage: Fake small caps. Embossed letters. Drop shadows. And if you argue that’s for contrast, you wouldn’t set white letters on a murky green background!

    Not a bad airport. Looks like it can use some updating. More comfortable seating and more plugs. Food venues are ok but would like to see more local flair sit down establishments.

    Careful with persons offering Taxi service outside the booth, they charge double and use a cellphone “Taximeter”. Use the official Taxi booth.

    If you are in Terminal D ask to the KLM crown lounge: if it's empty or you're enough miserable they'll give you the wifi password ;)

    For such a busy airport, IAH is pretty efficient. I don't check bags and like to get picked up at passenger drop-off to save a little time and mix things up a bit!
