Life is too short for layovers. Fortunately for Houstonians, there are many nonstop flights from George Bush Intercontinental Airport, the city's major transportation hub, and from the smaller William P. Hobby Airport.
You can ditch your car at home and fly to Texas cities as close as Austin and as far as El Paso. Consider a coastal vacation in Florida, or explore California destinations with direct flights from Houston. Is your wanderlust a little stronger than that? Choose from different destinations in Mexico—from party town Cancún to bustling Mexico City to serene Cozumel—or fly direct to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Europe.
Check out our comprehensive guide to domestic and international flights out of Houston's Bush and Hobby airports below.
