IAH looked like a total mess today… good luck if you’re flying

Saw this post and yeah… that view says everything. Apparently Terminal C at Houston was just packed around noon, like full-on chaos walking out. One of those scenes where you instantly feel bad for anyone trying to get through security or make a flight. No details on what caused...

United Club at IAH felt worse than the terminal

Tried using a United Club pass at Houston IAH recently and it was pretty disappointing. Walked into the Terminal C United Club and it was extremely crowded with barely any seats available. Honestly felt like the regular terminal had more space. The food selection was also pretty...

Air France check-in at IAH… Terminal D or E now?

Flying Air France out of Houston (IAH) this week and trying to figure out the check-in situation. Terminal D TSA is currently closed, and the booking information says to check in at Terminal E. The issue is that on a previous trip it also said Terminal E, but the actual Air...

LAS–IAH 1am redeye might be the worst in UA’s network… prove me wrong

Just got off UA 2017 from Vegas to Houston. Departs 1:00am, lands 5:45am local. I usually avoid domestic redeyes, but this one was next-level painful. It’s only about 2 hours and 15 minutes of actual flight time. By the time you start to drift off, you’re already descending. So...

Horrible experience renting with Thrifty at IAH

Rented a car at Houston IAH through Thrifty after booking a cheap add-on through Spirit. Line was slow, the counter staff were joking around, and when it was finally my turn the agent tried to sell me gas and then pushed hard on insurance. I said no, but she kept insisting I...

6-hour overnight at IAH… worth leaving the airport?

Landing around 11pm and flying out again at 9am is such an annoying amount of time. By the time you get off the plane, get your bearings, and think about heading to a hotel, you’re basically looking at maybe 4–5 hours of actual sleep and that’s if the shuttle timing works out....

Qatar at IAH telling me to check in at D but clear security at E… how’s the process?

Flying IAH to Doha on Qatar and got the email saying to check in at Terminal D, then go over to Terminal E for security, then back to D for the actual flight. Kinda annoying, especially with family in tow. Anyone done this recently? Wondering how long security at E has been...

Got my first United BMW ride at IAH

Walked off the plane at IAH and saw my name on a tablet. Thought it was a wheelchair at first, then the text came in and the agent asked if I wanted a ride. Of course I said yes. Saved me a solid chunk of walking. The whole thing felt super smooth and kind of surreal. Cool...

Hotel gave my bag to a stranger, now wants me to pay shipping

Stayed at a La Quinta near Houston Bush (IAH South). Left my luggage with the front desk for storage before a long flight home. They handed it to another guest by mistake, then called after I’d cleared TSA saying they found it and wanted me to come back to get it. Obviously...

IAH Wait Time Megathread, Share Your Updates Here

Seeing mixed reports about security wait times at IAH today, some say 180 minutes, others got through in 30. Thought this could be a useful thread to post real-time updates for anyone flying soon. I’m flying out tonight for work (carry-on only, no checked bags) and trying to...

Lady tried to store her bag under my seat on DFW–IAH

Currently on AA1912, middle seat in MCE after getting on standby. The woman by the window asked if she could put her bag under the seat in front of me. I said, “Uh, yeah, I do mind.” She sighed and told me to put it in the overhead instead no please or thank you. Some people...

I'm so tired of these garbage 737s flying in and out of IAH

United clearly knows us IAH regulars don't have many options. 8 out and backs in the last month (2 first class remainder E+) and at least half have had some issue- broken tray table, non-functional wifi, broken infotainment...now the minor annoyance of no seat back storage....

Frontier Airlines just dropped eight new routes out of Houston’s IAH, and it feels like they’re stepping into the void Southwest left behind. chron.com

Flights to spots like Baltimore, Philly, Fort Lauderdale, and even Guatemala City are launching from November through February, with fares starting as low as $29. I’ve flown Frontier a few times, but you really can’t argue with those intro prices for quick trips or budget...
