Texas Airport Shuttle

MD Anderson to Hobby Airport Shuttle

Traveling between MD Anderson Cancer Center (1515 Holcombe Blvd, Texas Medical Center) and William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)? Texas Shuttle runs private, door-to-door shuttle service on this corridor 24/7 — pickup at the Main Building, Mays Clinic, any TMC hotel, or any Houston address, and drop-off curbside at your Hobby terminal. It's the shortest airport run in the Texas Medical Center: about 11–13 door-to-door miles, typically 20–30 minutes via Loop 610 and the I-45 south corridor. No rideshare surge after a long clinic day, no shared-van timetable, no Houston parking fees. Based on real completed Texas Shuttle trips on this route, the typical fare runs $46–$74 each way (25th–75th percentile; most rides land near $60) for a private sedan or SUV. Round trips save 10% off each way.

The route: Holcombe to Hobby

From the Medical Center we run Loop 610 east and south (or TX-288 to I-610 when traffic favors it) straight into the Hobby loop — the most predictable airport run in Houston. Houston rush hour can add 15–20 minutes; your driver builds that into your pickup. For a 6 a.m. departure out of Hobby, plan on a 4–4:30 a.m. pickup at your TMC address; we confirm the exact time when you book. For arrivals, share your flight number at booking and your driver tracks it — pickup adjusts automatically if your flight is late, at no extra charge.

Why a reserved shuttle for treatment travel

MD Anderson treatment weeks run on fixed schedules, and the last thing a tired patient needs after a clinic day is a surge-priced rideshare search at the Hobby curb. One reserved vehicle, one flat door-to-door price, a driver who knows the TMC hotel entrances and the Hobby pickup level — and round trips booked together save 10% off each way. Families ride in one vehicle: sedans seat up to 3, large SUVs 4–7, shuttle vans up to 8 with luggage.
