Which Airport for Galveston?

[linkerbink]

We have never sailed from Galveston before and were  wondering which Houston airport is the best one for a cruise. We are coming from Pennsylvania and could fly from either Newark  or Philly. Any help greatly appreciated!

Hobby is closer by 45 minute. Southwest is the primary carrier there.

Hobby is the closer, but from the North East you might more selection of nonstop flights to IAH, which is about 70 miles from Galveston.

Also if you are considering Newark, look at flights out of LGA or JFK. I found a 6:30am flight out of LGA lands at 9;25am at IAH.
