About
Arriving at George Bush Intercontinental Airport
Houston Bush Intercontinental is United Airlines' second-largest hub and a major gateway for flights to Latin America and the oil-producing regions of the Middle East and Africa.
The airport has five terminals connected by the Skyway automated train. Terminal E handles most international arrivals, while United dominates Terminals B and C. The distance between terminals means passengers connecting or being picked up at the wrong terminal can lose 15-20 minutes.
IAH is 23 miles north of downtown Houston. I-45 and the Hardy Toll Road are the main access routes, both prone to congestion during rush hours.
Pickup tip
IAH is spread out across 5 terminals. Confirm which terminal before driving — the Skyway connects them but adds time.
