Getting between Bush Intercontinental and Houston Hobby?
I have a connecting flight from Continental Airlines to Southwest Airlines in Houston. The flights are two hours apart. I booked it that way to save about $400 on Continental's air fare. My question is how bad is traffic at 3:30 in the afternoon to get from these two airports. I see that they are about 30 miles apart on Google Maps..

Oh man, you're going to be pushing it with a two hour window! I currently live in Houston about five miles from IAH. At that time, you're going to catch a lot of traffic when you get past downtown headed south. I would highly recommend changing your Southwest flight to a later one. Another point to consider is that Hobby is under construction and the lines for security are always really long right now. Again, two hours is really tight.

Even if you're doing carry-on luggage only (and don't have to wait to claim your bags), considering that you're supposed to check in 1.5 to 2 hours before your flight, you're cutting it way too close. It can easily be an hour between the two airports.

2 hours is really pushing it. I recommend changing your flight to a later one. That is right around rush hour. Have a great trip!

Right about 3 1/2 hrs flying time (actual in the air time), not including stops, plane changes, ect.
2 :
The scheduled non-stop flight time from San Francisco will depend on your choices of airlines and airport of arrival in Houston area. Flight duration will vary from 3h 29min to 3h 58min. (San Francisco Int'l / SFO - Houston Intercontinental / IAH) - Continental Airlines has 5 to 7 daily non-stop flights with flight times of 3h 29 to 3h 58min. - United Airlines has 1 daily non-stop flight with flight time of 3h 48min. FYI - Continental and Southwest Airlines flies from Oakland Int'l airport (OAK) to both airports in Houston. (Oakland Int'l / OAK - Houston Intercontinental / IAH) - Continental Airlines has 3 daily non-stop flights with flight time varying from 3h 31min to 3h 48min. (Oakland Int'l / OAK - Houston Hobby / HOU) - Southwest Airlines has 1 daily non-stop flight with flight time of 3h 40min. The actual flight time will depend on the winds, speed of the aircraft and the actual route the aircraft flies.

3 hours and 30 minutes if you can get a direct flight. It's 1,641 statute miles. Flight time will vary depending on winds, weight and aircraft type. You can get any flight time or distance estimates between airports at: http://www.jets.com/

Why are there no commercial airline flights directly from Houston, Texas to Key West, Florida
Why are there no commercial airline flights directly from Houston, Texas to Key West, Florida?
Those connecting flights that do exist are incredibly expensive. You can fly all the way across the Atlantic ocean for less than a simple jaunt across the Gulf of Mexico. Why is that?

If they could fill a flight to any destination, you can be sure someone would accomodate. Called economics.
2 :
supply and demand.
3 :
Have you ever seen the airport in Key West lol? Think only the puddle jumper types of planes can fly in there. Need to fly into Mijami and take a connecting flight in.
4 :
Key West has challenges to commercial aviation: 1- Size. It's runway is less than 5,000 feet long. That limits the types of aircraft which can fly out of EYW. (Remember...What goes in must come out) There is but a single jet which regularly goes in and out of there. 2. Key West (EYW) has airspace restrictions. Birds, a tethered balloon that's 14,000 feet up, noise restrictions which basically shut it down from 11p-7a. One of those places that it's very hard to get to.

you are so beautiful

Without knowing which part of Tennessee you want to fly to, it's hard to give an accurate answer. But I'd guess not much over 2 hours if you're able to get a direct flight. Pick a city, and look it up on Travelocity.com. NOTE: Continental has direct flights from Houston Intercontinental to Nashville which, if on time, last just under 2 hours. Northwest will make you switch in Memphis, American in Dallas, and Delta in Atlanta, all if which will take twice as long or more.
3 :
wow you are so precise! Which city in TN? What kind of flight? I tell you with a hot air balloon it can take days...
4 :
average flight time between to two cities is 1 hour 54 minutes to 1 hour 57 minutes
5 :
2hrs
6 :
I would say about 2 hours. But it could be longer if there are plane delays.
