Thanks for joining me on this airport tour of Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport! Today’s tour covers one of the busiest airports in the United States and the third largest hub for Star Alliance member United Airlines!
Built as a replacement for Houston’s Hobby Airport, IAH now serves nearly 200 destinations across the globe, historically offering service to all six inhabited continents. As a hub for United Airlines, Houston has a number of United Clubs and lots of space dedicated to their flights, including a large regional hub, making connections easy and stress-free.
I do a lot of original research while preparing these videos, so please leave a comment below if you have questions about the tour or navigating the airport, and I’ll do my best to answer them! Or, share your own thoughts and experiences about IAH!
Finally, let me know where you’d like to see next! Stay tuned for new flight and airport videos every two weeks!
Please safely and wear a mask!

Please do ORD and MDW. I’m planning on connecting through those airports.
Good stuff! Thanks for continuing to share👍
Thanks for the tour, I knew IAH was big but didn't realize how much so
Can you do a terminal 2 msp ,Tampa, Fort Lauderdale ,Miami,buffalo tour
I like your video
You have no idea how much I love these tours
Very professional, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is played inside the airport
As a guy who has flown out of IAH since 1982 and seen the airport grow leaps and bounds over the years and knows the terminals inside/out I will say you did a fantastic job in the tour. My only comment would be when you mention Terminal E as the newest, it is as the newest complete terminal building. However, Terminal C northside is a complete rebuild from the old building that was completed and operational 2017. Again very very well done.
It's everything I would have expected from an airport with that name, the incompetence was astonishing, they lost my daughter's one little bag causing her to miss her connecting flight ,her only option 10 am the next day but they offered her a chair to sit on that was very kind 🤦♂️they found her bag but wouldn't let her have her phone charger so when all was said and done I had to rent an overpriced room and buy her a new overpriced charger, I'd like to thank United airlines for their massive incompetence as well ,I attempted to get some kind of recourse but got a major run around and after waiting on hold or eventually getting a call back more incompetence ,If it's humanely possible it will be by auto from now on .
Great, accurate video!
America's Best Large Market Airport (Skytrax)
Proud of BOTH of our excellent international airports in Houston!
IAH = I Am HOME!!
😎👍
Im definitely gonna get lost in iah I’m from Europe and going to Houston soon 😩
This airport is too damn big and too damn busy lol.
Latinos no lleguen a este aeropuerto porque son MUY RACISTAS!!!
1.Importante llevar el boleto de ida y vuelta
2.Si tienes algo que esconder NO LLEVES CELULAR x q te lo quitan y lo desbloquean buscando pruebas.
3.NO FIRMES NADA porque lo q quieren es q tú te vayas voluntariamente.
4.Pide un representante de tu consulado
5.Exige un intérprete en ESPAÑOL
6.Van a INTIMIDARTE diciéndote que o te regresas a tu país o te dan 6meses de cárcel
7.Te tienen q preguntar si tu vida corre riesgo si regresas a tu país (contesta que SI) porque así ellos no te pueden regresar.
**De preferencia no lleguen al aeropuerto de Houston x q ahí son muy racistas.**
👍👍👍👍
Question – is the Terminal E check-in area open? I heard that it's closed but I also get other reports saying it's open.
Ha! I recently took that JetBlue flight to BOS for Anime Boston 2022…..I got to IAH way too early as the JetBlue desk didn't even open for another hour. Also, TSA pre-check is in one direction only and I had to circle back around over that sky bridge to get to my actual gate. Once there, though it was easy-peasy. Had a nice lunch, and my flight left on time and got to Boston early. The JetBlue flight itself was really comfortable and fast and they have back-seat USB charging ports which are a MUST! It was also really easy to get from Logan airport to the Airport Subway station via the Blue Line shuttle(bus) and onward to my hotel in the Back Bay. Going back I had to resort to a cab because I didn't account for holiday scheduling on MBTA. Got back to IAH also ahead of schedule, got my parking shuttle quickly, and drove home just after peak lunch time. I prefer HOU when I can use it, but I'm getting the hang of IAH.
Last year I flew out of IAH to JFK, via a connection in CLT (Charlotte, NC), all on American Airlines. It was my first time in the Big Apple and I was determined to get there before sundown, and technically I did. Had to get up WAY early to do it though. Flight to Charlotte was smooth and I even got a little sleep on the plane. I had a pleasant lunch in Charlotte and my connection to JFK was also on time. I did touch down at JFK with the sun still up, but it was also late Fall, so by the time I navigated JFK, made my way to Jamaica Station to board the LIRR to Penn Station….well, the sun set on me as I rode LIRR to Manhattan. By the time I emerged from Penn Station in Midtown, it was well after dark…but at least Midtown is very well lit and when you emerge and look up you see the Empire State Building and know you've made it. My hotel was just a few blocks north and I'd already scoped it out numerous times on Google Street View. Thank goodness for YouTube Travel Vloggers like you….it's reassuring to arrive in a new place but feel like you know your way from these videos.
I do think IAH should be name " Houston International Airport "it more conform
I had to stop at IAH to connect from Toronto
Do Austin airport
Thank you so much for this video! I've been wondering about working here, either in general or as a flight attendant in Houston.
Appreciate it lad, going have a little over an hour to get from one gate to another, the info you provided and the info on they're website has help in figuring out the layout and time that will be taken up.
thank you im flying for the first time soon and this really helps!!
do you happen to have a tour like this for milwaukee? flying out of there soon and don’t know anything about the airport
we will arrive in IAH by ANA from Japan and we will fly with United to Baltimore. How far is the international arrival terminal to domestic one?
