Kemah Airport Shuttle

Traveling to or from Kemah? Texas Shuttle offers reliable door-to-door transportation to and from Houston's two airports — George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) and William P. Hobby (HOU). Our experienced drivers take you directly from your home in Kemah to the airline terminal, bypassing the worst of the I-45 traffic and getting you to your gate with time to spare.

Kemah sits in Galveston County on Galveston Bay, about 30 miles southeast of downtown Houston with quick access to I-45 and the Sam Houston Tollway. From Kemah it is roughly 22 miles to Hobby (HOU), about a 35–50 minute door-to-door ride, and roughly 40 miles to Bush Intercontinental (IAH), about a 55–75 minute ride depending on time of day. Whether you are flying out of Hobby or IAH, our shuttle covers both Houston airports on a flat, pre-quoted fare.

What time will you arrive at the airport?

Your driver coordinates pickup time so you arrive at IAH or Hobby well before your flight, with buffer for security and check-in. Give us your flight number when you book and we time pickup around it.

Can I bring my luggage?

Yes — standard suitcases and carry-ons are included. Let your driver know if you have oversized luggage, sports equipment, or extra bags so we assign a vehicle with the right cargo space.

What happens in case of flight delays?

For airport pickups we track your flight, so if it is delayed or early your driver adjusts automatically. You are not charged extra for normal delays.
