Route Specifics: Crosby to Houston Airports
From Crosby, the typical route to IAH (Bush Intercontinental) covers roughly 30 miles and runs about 45 minutes in clear traffic. Most drivers take FM 2100 south to US 90 (Crosby Freeway / Beltway 8 East), then north on the Sam Houston Tollway (Beltway 8) straight to the IAH terminals. The toll-free alternate uses US 90 west to Loop 610 North and the Hardy Toll Road approach. Trips to HOU (Hobby Airport) run about 28 miles and 45–55 minutes — typically US 90 west to I-610 South or I-10 west to the Gulf Freeway (I-45) South, exiting at Broadway / Airport Blvd. We toll-cover both routings, so you never see a surcharge for Beltway or Hardy on your fare.
Best Pickup Times to Beat Houston Traffic
Houston rush-hour congestion on Beltway 8, I-10, and I-610 can add 20–40 minutes to a Crosby-to-airport run between 6:30–9:30 a.m. and 4:00–7:00 p.m. on weekdays. Our dispatch automatically buffers the pickup window for flights departing during these windows — but if you have a tight connection at IAH, we recommend booking a pickup at least 3 hours before domestic departure and 3.5 hours before international. Sunday-evening returns into IAH can also see backups on Beltway 8 east of US 59; we monitor live traffic and reroute via the Hardy Toll Road when needed.

What to Bring and What to Expect at the Airport
Our vans seat up to 14 passengers and accommodate two standard checked bags plus a carry-on per person at no extra charge. Bring your booking confirmation and a photo ID; we drop you curbside at the correct terminal — Terminals A, B, C, D, or E at IAH and the main Hobby terminal — saving you the parking-and-shuttle hassle. Drivers track your inbound flight on return trips and adjust pickup automatically if you land early or late, so there is no need to call us from baggage claim unless you want a heads-up.
