Fly into Houston Hobby (HOU) or George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)>Intercontinental to us old timers Hobby is about 45 minutes to Galveston Intercontinental is about an hour and half You will find more nonstops into IAH Southwest flies to HOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelingtriumphess Posted November 1, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 1, 2009 When cruising out of Galveston, where do you fly into? How long is the drive to Galveston from the airport? Houston has two airports. One is Hobby (a little closer) and one is Bush (IAH)(a little farther). You will need to make some arrangements for transportation: cab, shuttle, or if you booked your cruise through Carnival, carnival shuttle. I suppose you could also rent a car if you are planning on spending some time in Galveston. Galveston does have a little airport, but usually those little hubs are quite expensive. Galveston has a shuttle that take people back and forth from both airports. It's not cheap though. Here is a link. http://www.galveston.com/airporttransfers/r_airport_transfers2.asp Happy cruising!

ssb Posted November 1, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2009 There are no commercial flights into Galveston. The nearest airport is Hobby, less than 45 minture for the island. Intercontinental airport is north of Houston and approximately 1-1/2 hours to Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
