How an arrival at HOU works
Your reservation is linked to the flight number, so a delay, a diversion or an early landing moves the pickup time automatically. You are given thirty minutes of complimentary wait from wheels-down on a domestic arrival and ninety on an international one, because immigration and baggage are unpredictable in a way the airline schedule is not.
Curbside pickup is the faster and cheaper option: the chauffeur holds in the cell lot, you text when you have your bags, and the car is at the designated pickup zone within a few minutes. Meet-and-greet puts the chauffeur inside with a name board, helps with luggage and walks you out — the right choice for first-time visitors, guests you are hosting, children, and anyone with mobility needs.
Departures from HOU
For departures we work backwards from the terminal arrival time recommended for your carrier and cabin, add the traffic profile for that specific day and hour, and give you a pickup time. For international departures out of the larger hubs that usually means three hours before scheduled departure; for a domestic morning flight with pre-check it is often ninety minutes.
Getting into Houston from HOU
Houston's ground transportation is shaped by the Texas Medical Center, the energy corridor and the port. Medical travel is a genuine sector here: patients and families arriving for treatment at MD Anderson and the Texas Medical Center, often for weeks at a time, needing a car that understands the difference between an appointment and an emergency.
Local note. Galveston cruise embarkation from Houston is an hour each way and Saturday mornings in season are heavily committed. Book the pier run with the cruise, not the week before.

Questions
HOU car service: frequently asked
Where does the chauffeur meet me at HOU?
You choose. Curbside pickup places the car at the designated pickup zone once you have your bags and is the faster option. Meet-and-greet places the chauffeur inside the terminal at baggage claim or the international arrivals gate with a name board. Closer to downtown, the Medical Center and NRG Stadium than Intercontinental, and much quicker for anything south of the loop.
Do you track flights into HOU?
Yes. The reservation is linked to your flight number and the pickup time moves automatically with the actual arrival. Delays caused by the airline are never charged as wait time.
How much waiting time is included at HOU?
Thirty minutes from touchdown on domestic arrivals and ninety minutes on international arrivals.
What are the terminals at HOU?
One terminal with the international concourse. Terminal layouts and pickup zones change with construction, so the desk re-checks the current zone the day before every arrival.
Which FBOs do you serve at HOU?
Atlantic Aviation, Wilson Air Center. Ramp access is granted by the FBO and the airport authority; give the desk the FBO name and we confirm the arrangement before the day.
How early should I leave for a departure from HOU?
We work backwards from the terminal arrival time your carrier and cabin recommend, add the traffic profile for that day and hour, and give you a pickup time rather than asking you to guess one.
