Getting from Houston city center to Houston's airport

Hobby Airport (HOU) lies about 19 km (12 miles) southeast of the city center.

Journey times vary considerably depending on traffic conditions and the time of day.

Notes:

  • Prices in USD; table created in 2026 and subject to change.
  • Houston has limited public transit connections to its airports. A car, taxi, or ride-hailing service is the most common choice for most travelers.
  • METRO Route 102 connects downtown Houston to IAH; however, journey times can be significantly longer during peak hours due to traffic.
  • METRORail Red Line does not serve either airport directly. Connections to HOU require a bus transfer at a rail station.
  • Taxi fares are metered and may include airport surcharges. Ride-hailing prices vary with demand and surge pricing.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
