    Looking for a fast/easy/cheap way to get downtown? Try Metro Houston Airport Direct. Picks up in Terminal C baggage claim area. Look for the booth at the end of the escalator. Read more

    The TSA were the nicest out of everyone I've talked to. That was before I winked at them in the scanner too.

    Shuttle drop off is at the baggage claim lower level. Take the elevator or escalator up to checkin/security.

    You can get 30 minutes of complimentary Internet access through Boingo. Just connect to a hotspot and follow the instructions.

    Listen for the folks calling "beep,beep!" This is the sound of an approaching cart in the walkways. I guess they couldn't afford horns?

    Le Grand Comptoir in Terminal C has fabulous salads. They are fresh, tasty, healthy, and nice size portions. I recommend the Vietnemese Shrimp salad or the Provencal.

    Take the Skyway to get between terminals, and it also stops at the Marriott.

    Any airport that makes LGA look clean has issues. Yes, that's used dental floss on the floor.

    Defeat the the security boss in Terminal C and then dodge the attacking carts and head to gate C-44. Double-jump and you will land on an invisible platform (it's a bug). Jump again for a free powerup!

    There's no free wifi at George Bush international airport. Which is another thing the Bush name gets wrong.

    Seriously IAH, you have to think big. You need charging stations with seats around and a bigger & better food court, specially at terminal B

    No ATM on terminal C and if YOU want to buy a ticket for Metro Bus you need to go to terminal E. But look that you have exactly change one dollar and 25 cents. This is America ...

    If you are arriving on an international flight brace yourself for long lines at immigration and customs. Expect 1 to 2 hour processing time.

    Big place, lots of gates and terminals, just make sure to read the signage and never forget to ask questions if unsure. There's a lot of gate changes that happens.

    Looks like they have nice food options here. I only see them running by since United only allows 30 mins between many connections.

    Clean airport. Try Panda Express if you need fast and a bit spicy Chinese food.

    Texans need to spend all that oil money and make a new and bigger airport. As much as air traffic they get they really need a bigger and better airport.

    If you're flying UA mainline between 6am-12pm: avoid the disaster that is the C checkpoint and head up the stairs to the E checkpoint - eons faster, even for elites!

    Wear comfortable shoes since you will be walking quite a bit. Not many choices for breakfast in Terminal B. I can't believe the McDonald's there has no breakfast menu.

    Walking between terminal could take a bit of time. Make sure you allow about 15-20 min of walk

    The Spirit Airlines check in desk is a mess. Definitely check in online at least an hour before your flight and carry on to bypass.

    Get used to hearing, "Excuse the cart, please!" And be sure to move out of the way when you hear it or risk getting run over.

    The "1 stop inspection" program is for passengers with carry-ons only or transiting internationally. Skip lines at immigration and no need to claim and recheck bags. Thumbs up! See pic for sticker

    Terminal C Pre-✅ cannot be beat! No longer is Terminal E the best place to check-in and go through security.

    Avoid the long security lines in terminal C and go through terminal E!! There is a walkway heading back to all the other terminals and terminal C is just next door. Saves you lots of time!

    If you haven't been to terminal B lately...you're in for a pleasant surprise!!! Skip the food choices when going through security if you're going to gates 31 and below.

    If you are using Super Shuttle, check in as quickly as you can. They put you in queue for a driver and it can take as long as 30 mins. Trust me, I learned from sad experience.
