Houston Airport Car Service & IAH Transportation

George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) is Houston's gateway to the world - the tenth-busiest airport in North America, United Airlines' second-largest hub, and the primary connection for Houston's global business community. With five terminals processing over 45 million passengers annually, IAH requires ground transportation providers who truly understand its scale and complexity.

Our IAH airport car service is built on deep knowledge of this major hub. We understand that United dominates Terminals B and C with their hub operations, that Terminal E handles all international arrivals with variable customs processing times, and that Terminal D serves various carriers including Delta and American. This expertise means your chauffeur is positioned at exactly the right Lower Level door when you emerge from baggage claim.

Houston's geography presents unique routing challenges. The city sprawls across 670 square miles, and destinations from IAH vary dramatically in drive time. Downtown is 23 miles south, but the famous Houston traffic - especially on I-45 and the 610 Loop - can turn that into an hour-plus journey during rush hour. The Hardy Toll Road offers a faster alternative for many destinations, and our drivers make real-time decisions based on current conditions. The Energy Corridor is a long west-side journey of 45-70 minutes, while The Woodlands to the north is a quicker 25-40 minutes.

Houston is the energy capital of the world, and IAH is how that industry connects globally. Energy executives flying in for board meetings, industry conferences, or project reviews expect premium vehicles and professional service. Our Cadillac Escalade ESVs and Lincoln Navigators reflect these expectations. For executive teams arriving together, our Mercedes Sprinter vans accommodate groups efficiently.

The Texas Medical Center - the world's largest medical complex - draws physicians, researchers, and patients from around the globe, many arriving through IAH's Terminal E. We understand the unique needs of medical travelers: punctuality for appointments, comfortable vehicles for those recovering from procedures, and reliable service for patients with complex schedules. Corporate accounts serve both energy companies and healthcare institutions with streamlined billing and coordination.

Navigating IAH's Skyway

IAH's Skyway automated train connects all terminals in a continuous loop, with stations at Terminals A, B, C, D, and E. For pickups, we recommend staying in your arrival terminal - your driver will position at the correct Lower Level location. The Skyway is useful if you need to meet companions arriving at different terminals or access facilities in another terminal.
