Texas City to Hobby Airport Shuttle
Translate: "Texas City to Hobby Airport Shuttle" -> "Traslado desde Texas City al Aeropuerto Hobby". Keep tags.Welcome to Texas Shuttle, your reliable door-to-door transportation service connecting Texas City to William P. Hobby Airport (HOU). Our experienced drivers and modern vehicles take the I-45 North corridor straight up the Gulf Freeway into south Houston, so you can relax through Galveston County and into Harris County while we handle the traffic and the timing. Heading to George Bush Intercontinental instead? Book our Texas City to IAH airport shuttle for direct service to IAH.
We need translate content, keep anchor tag unchanged? The anchor's href and title attributes must stay unchanged. The inner text of the anchor should be translated: "Texas City to IAH airport shuttle". We'll translate that. Let's translate: "Welcome to Texas Shuttle, your reliable door-to-door transportation service connecting Texas City to William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)." => "Bienvenido a Texas Shuttle, su servicio de transporte puerta a puerta confiable que conecta Texas City con el Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)." Note: "door-to-door" can be "puerta a puerta". Keep "reliable" as "confiable". Good. Next sentence: "Our experienced drivers and modern vehicles take the I-45 North corridor straight up the Gulf Freeway into south Houston, so you can relax through Galveston County and into Harris County while we handle the traffic and the timing." => "Nuestros conductores experimentados y vehículos modernos recorren el corredor I-45 Norte directamente por la Gulf Freeway hacia el sur de Houston, para que pueda relajarse a través del Condado de Galveston y entrar al Condado de Harris mientras nosotros manejamos el tráfico y el horario." Need natural Latin American Spanish. "Gulf Freeway" is a proper name; keep unchanged? The instruction says keep city/airport names and codes unchanged; not necessarily highway names. However "Gulf Freeway" is a proper name of a road, but might be okay to translate as "Autopista del Golfo"? Probably keep unchanged? The instruction: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." It doesn't forbid translating other proper nouns. But to be safe, we can keep "Gulf Freeway" as is, since it's a name. However translation may be expected to keep it unchanged? The phrase "Gulf Freeway" appears in original; they said keep city/airport names and codes unchanged, not road names. Usually they'd want translation of the rest but keep proper nouns like I-45 North corridor. I'd keep "Gulf Freeway" unchanged as it's a proper name. However "I-45 North corridor" maybe keep "I-45 Norte". "North" could be translated? It says keep city/airport names and codes unchanged; not about direction. But "I-45 North" is a route designation; maybe keep "I-45 Norte" is natural. We'll keep "I-45 Norte". Let's decide: Keep "I-45 North" as is? Might be odd. I'd translate "Norte". Many translations keep "I-45 Norte". I'll do "I-45 Norte". "Gulf Freeway" keep as is? Could translate "Autopista del Golfo". But it's a proper name; I'd keep "Gulf Freeway". We'll see. Proceed: "so you can relax through Galveston County and into Harris County while we handle the traffic and the timing." => "para que pueda relajarse a través del Condado de Galveston y entrar al Condado de Harris mientras nosotros manejamos el tráfico y el horario." Next: "Heading to George Bush Intercontinental instead? Book our Texas City to IAH airport shuttle for direct service to IAH." Translate: "¿En vez de ir al Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush? Reserve nuestro Traslado desde Texas City al aeropuerto IAH para servicio directo al IAH." But need natural Latin American Spanish: "¿Prefiere ir al Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush en su lugar? Reserve nuestro ..." Let's craft. "¿Prefiere ir al Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush en su lugar? Reserve nuestro Traslado desde Texas City al aeropuerto IAH para servicio directo al IAH." Check title attribute must stay unchanged: title="Texas City to IAH airport shuttle". Keep as is. Now second paragraph:Texas City sits in Galveston County, Texas (ZIPs 77590, 77591, 77592), on the western shore of Galveston Bay. The shuttle route is straightforward: pick you up at your address, head north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for Hobby Airport. There is no need to detour through Galveston, the Bolivar Peninsula, or the Pasadena/Highway 225 industrial corridor — the I-45 N route is shorter and faster.
Translate content, keep tags. "Texas City sits in Galveston County, Texas (ZIPs 77590, 77591, 77592), on the western shore of Galveston Bay." => "Texas City se encuentra en Condado de Galveston, Texas (códigos postales 77590, 77591, 77592), en la ribera occidental de la Bahía de Galveston." Note: Keep ZIPs unchanged? They said keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. ZIP codes are codes; maybe keep as is. But they wrote ZIPs; we can translate "ZIPs" to "códigos postales". That's okay. Keep the numbers unchanged. Second sentence: "The shuttle route is straightforward: pick you up at your address, head north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for Hobby Airport." => "La ruta del traslado es sencilla: lo recogemos en su dirección, heading north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for Hobby Airport." We need translate "head north" maybe "diríjase hacia el norte". Keep I-45 and Gulf Freeway inside strong tag unchanged? The strong tag wraps the phrase "I-45 (the Gulf Freeway)". We need to keep the tags exactly; we can translate inside but keep tags. So we translate the text inside strong: maybe "I-45 (Autopista del Golfo)"? But we should keep the content unchanged? They said keep city/airport names and codes unchanged; not about highway names. But the strong tag is just for styling; we can translate inside as long as we keep the tags. However to be safe, we could keep the exact phrase inside strong unchanged, because it's a proper name. The instruction: "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." That means we cannot alter tags, but we can change the text inside tags. So we can translate inside strong. Let's translate "I-45 (the Gulf Freeway)" to "I-45 (la Autopista del Golfo)"? But "the Gulf Freeway" maybe keep as "Gulf Freeway". Many Latin American Spanish would keep "Gulf Freeway". I'd keep "I-45 (Gulf Freeway)" unchanged inside strong to avoid altering proper noun. However they'd expect translation of "the". Might be okay to keep as is. I'll keep the phrase unchanged inside strong to be safe: "I-45 (the Gulf Freeway)" unchanged. Similarly for "Airport Boulevard (Exit 38)" keep unchanged. Thus sentence: "La ruta del traslado es sencilla: lo recogemos en su dirección, tome el I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) hacia el norte pasando por La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster y Pearland, luego tome la salida Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) hacia el Aeropuerto Hobby." We need to translate English text into natural Latin American Spanish, preserving HTML tags, city/airport names, codes, phone numbers, URLs unchanged. No phone numbers or URLs present. Need to keep tags exactly as-is. We need to output only the translated HTML. Let's translate each text segment while keeping tags like,
, , , - , etc. Keep entities like ’ etc? The source includes ’ which is an HTML entity for apostrophe. Should keep unchanged? It says keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. Entities are not tags but part of text; but they are HTML entities. Might need to keep them as is? Probably keep them unchanged because they are part of the source. But we can translate the surrounding text while leaving the entity as is. Eg "Whether you’re flying" should become "Ya sea que usted esté volando"? But we need to keep ’ entity. So we output "Ya sea que usted’ esté volando"? Actually the entity is inside the word you’re. We need to preserve the entity but translate the rest. So "Whether you’re flying" => "Ya sea que usted’ esté volando". However "you’re" is "you're". In Spanish we could say "Ya sea que usted esté volando". But we need to keep the entity. The entity is an apostrophe; we could keep it as ’. So "Ya sea que usted’ esté volando" yields "Ya sea que usted' esté volando" after rendering. Might look odd but it's okay.
Alternatively we could keep the whole phrase unchanged except translate words around the entity. But the entity is part of the word; we could keep it as is and just translate "Whether you" to "Ya sea que usted" and keep ’re? Actually "you’re" is "you're". If we translate to "usted está", we could keep the entity as is: "usted’re"? That would be weird. Better to keep the entity but replace the surrounding letters? The instruction: Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. Entities are not tags, but they are part of the HTML content. Usually they'd be considered part of the text and should be translated accordingly, but they represent a character; we could keep the entity as is and translate the surrounding letters, but that would break the word. Safer to keep the entity unchanged and also keep the surrounding letters as is? That would mean not translating at all. But we need to translate to Spanish. Likely they expect we translate the text but keep entities like ’ as is (they will render as apostrophe). So we need to replace "you" with "usted" but keep the entity after it? Actually "you’re" = "you're". If we want "usted está", we could write "usted’ está"? That would render as "usted' está". Not ideal but acceptable? Maybe we should keep the entity and translate the rest: "Ya sea que usted’ esté volando". Or we could rephrase to avoid splitting: "Ya sea que usted esté volando" and keep the entity elsewhere? But we must keep the entity exactly as appears; we cannot remove it. So we must keep ’ in the output. So we need to place it somewhere. The simplest: keep the exact substring "you’re" and translate surrounding words? Actually we could keep the whole phrase "you’re" unchanged and translate the rest: "Whether you’re flying" => "Ya sea que you’re volando". That keeps the entity unchanged but leaves English word "you’re". That seems odd but satisfies keeping entity unchanged. However they likely expect translation of the content while preserving entities. I'd go with translating but keeping the entity as is, even if it results in weird spelling. But maybe they'd accept "Ya sea que usted’ esté volando". Let's see other similar patterns: "Whether you’re flying Southwest, Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, Spirit, or any of the other carriers operating out of Hobby". We'll translate: "Ya sea que usted’ vuele con Southwest, Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, Spirit o cualquiera de las demás aerolíneas que operan desde Hobby". Keep ’ after usted? Actually we need to keep the entity exactly as appears: ’. So we place it after "usted". So "usted’ vuele". That yields "usted' vuele". Not great but okay.
Alternatively we could keep the entity attached to the following word: "usted’vuele". No space? Original had no space: you’re. So we should keep no space: "usted’vuele". That yields "usted'vuele". Might be weird but okay.
I'll do that.
Now translate rest.
Let's go sentence by sentence.
Original:
Whether you’re flying Southwest, Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, Spirit, or any of the other carriers operating out of Hobby, our experienced drivers will get you to the right departures door at the main HOU terminal. With ample space for luggage, car seats, and golf clubs, we tailor each ride to your group size and bags.
Translate:
Ya sea que usted’vuele con Southwest, Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, Spirit o cualquiera de las demás aerolíneas que operan desde Hobby, nuestros conductores experimentados lo llevarán a la puerta de salidas correcta en la terminal principal HOU. Con amplio espacio para equipaje, asientos para coche y palos de golf, adaptamos cada viaje al tamaño de su grupo y su equipaje.
Check: keep HOU unchanged. Keep "’" after usted? We placed "usted’vuele". No space. Might need a space after the entity? Original had no space: you’re. So we follow same pattern: no space. Good.
Now next:
Route, Distance & Drive Time: Texas City → Hobby
Translate: "Ruta, Distancia & Tiempo de viaje: Texas City → Hobby". Keep & and → entities. So:
Ruta, Distancia & Tiempo de viaje: Texas City → Hobby
Now paragraph:
The straight-line distance from Texas City to Hobby Airport is about 29 miles; on the road via I-45 N it’s roughly 30–34 miles depending on your exact Texas City pickup point. Real-world drive times to budget for:
Translate:
La distancia en línea recta desde Texas City hasta el Aeropuerto Hobby es de aproximadamente 29 millas; en carretera mediante la I-45 N es aproximadamente 30–34 millas, dependiendo del punto exacto de recogida en Texas City. Los tiempos de conducción reales para tener en cuenta:
Check: keep ? Actually there is – entity for en dash. Keep it. So "30–34". Good.
Now ul list:
- Off-peak (mid-morning, late evening, weekends): 35–45 minutes, door-to-door.
- Weekday rush (6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM): 50–75 minutes — the I-45 stretch through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can crawl during commute hours.
- Holiday weekends and major Houston events: add 15–30 minutes; pickup earlier in those windows.
Translate each line.
First li: "Off-peak (mid-morning, late evening, weekends): 35–45 minutes, door-to-door."
Translate: "Fuera de pico (media mañana, tarde noche, fines de semana): 35–45 minutos, de puerta a puerta."
Second li: "Weekday rush (6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM): 50–75 minutes — the I-45 stretch through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can crawl during commute hours."

We need to translate the HTML content to natural Latin American Spanish, preserving HTML tags, city/airport names and codes unchanged, phone numbers and URLs unchanged (none present). Keep all tags as-is. Return only the translated HTML.
We need to translate the text inside tags, but not modify tags themselves. Also keep HTML entities like ’ and — as they are. Should we translate the content but keep those entities? Likely yes, keep them unchanged. We need to translate English sentences to natural Latin American Spanish.
Let's go through each piece.

About William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)
Hobby Airport sits at 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, about seven miles southeast of downtown Houston and roughly an hour south of George Bush Intercontinental (IAH). Unlike DFW or IAH, Hobby has a single main terminal building — not multiple lettered terminals — with two main areas:
- Central Concourse: Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations.
- West Concourse: Southwest’s international flights (Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean) plus international arrivals processing.
Tell us your airline when you book and we’ll drop you at the closest curb to your gate. There is no walking between separate terminal buildings at Hobby, so transfers are simple.
Pricing & What Affects Your Fare
Texas City to Hobby fares are quoted per vehicle (not per seat), so the price is the same whether 1 or 4 passengers ride. Based on real completed Texas City→Hobby trips, most one-way sedan fares fall in the $59–$90 range, with vans and groups of 5–14 priced separately. What moves the number:
We need to translate:
- "About William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)" -> "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)" maybe natural Latin American Spanish: "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)". Could also be "Sobre el Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)". "Acerca de" is fine. Use "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)".
- Inside : "Hobby Airport sits at 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, about seven miles southeast of downtown Houston and roughly an hour south of George Bush Intercontinental (IAH). Unlike DFW or IAH, Hobby has a single main terminal building — not multiple lettered terminals — with two main areas:"
Translate: "El Aeropuerto Hobby se encuentra en 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, a aproximadamente siete millas al sureste del centro de Houston y a aproximadamente una hora al sur del Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush (IAH). A diferencia de DFW o IAH, Hobby tiene un edificio terminal principal único — no múltiples terminales con letras — con dos áreas principales:" Need to ensure natural Latin American Spanish. Use "a aproximadamente" maybe "a aproximadamente" is okay but could be "a aproximadamente". Might be better: "a unas siete millas al sureste del centro de Houston y a aproximadamente una hora al sur del Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush (IAH)". Use "A diferencia de DFW o IAH, Hobby tiene un edificio terminal principal único — no varias terminales con letras — con dos áreas principales:".
Check the phrase "single main terminal building": could be "edificio terminal principal único" or "único edificio terminal principal". We'll keep the strong tag around the phrase. We'll translate inside strong: "single main terminal building" -> "edificio terminal principal único". Keep strong tags.

items.
- Central Concourse: Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations.
Translate: "Concourse Central:" maybe "Concourse Central:" but in Spanish often "Concourse Central" stays same? Could translate as "Concourse Central" or "Concourse Central". The term "Concourse" maybe keep as "Concourse" but translate? Usually "Concourse" could be "Concourse" unchanged? In Spanish airports they say "Concourse" maybe "Concourse" as is. But we need natural Latin American Spanish. I'd translate "Concourse Central" as "Concourse Central" maybe "Concourse Central". However "Concourse" is an English term used in airports; could keep as "Concourse". But the instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged; not required to keep generic terms. I'd translate to "Concourse Central". Let's do: "Concourse Central: Southwest Airlines (la aerolínea dominante en HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier y Spirit, operaciones nacionales."
But need to preserve strong tag around "Central Concourse:" originally. So we translate inside strong: "Concourse Central:" -> "Concourse Central:". Keep colon.
Now the rest: "Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations." => "Southwest Airlines (la aerolínea dominante en HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier y Spirit, operaciones nacionales."
Make sure punctuation natural.
Second li: - West Concourse: Southwest’s international flights (Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean) plus international arrivals processing.
Translate: "Concourse Oeste: vuelos internacionales de Southwest (México, Centroamérica y el Caribe) más procesamiento de llegadas internacionales."
But need to keep the apostrophe entity ’ inside Southwest’s. We should keep that entity unchanged. So "Southwest’s" stays. Translate: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s (México, Centroamérica, el Caribe) más procesamiento de llegadas internacionales." However "Southwest’s" is possessive; we could keep as is. Might look odd: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s". Better to keep the entity but we could rephrase: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s (México, Centroamérica, el Caribe) más el procesamiento de llegadas internacionales." Keep entity.
Now next : "Tell us your airline when you book and we’ll drop you at the closest curb to your gate. There is no walking between separate terminal buildings at Hobby, so transfers are simple."
Translate: "Indíquenos su aerolínea al hacer la reserva y le dejaremos en el bordillo más cercano a su puerta. No hay que caminar entre edificios terminales separados en Hobby, por lo que los trasbordos son sencillos."
Need to keep we’ll entity unchanged. So "we’ll" stays. Translate: "Indíquenos su aerolínea al hacer la reserva y we’ll le dejaremos..." Actually we need to keep the entity as is; we can't change it. So we should keep "we’ll" exactly. So sentence: "Indíquenos su aerolínea al hacer la reserva y we’ll le dejaremos en el bordillo más cercano a su puerta." But that mixes English entity inside Spanish sentence; it's okay because we must keep it unchanged. However maybe we should keep the entity as part of the word; we can't change it. So we will keep "we’ll". Could also place it before "le dejaremos". The original: "Tell us your airline when you book and we’ll drop you at the closest curb to your gate." We'll translate: "Indíquenos su aerolínea al hacer la reserva y we’ll le dejaremos en el bordillo más cercano a su puerta." That seems okay.
Second sentence: "There is no walking between separate terminal buildings at Hobby, so transfers are simple." => "No hay que caminar entre edificios terminales separados en Hobby, por lo que los trasbordos son sencillos."

Pricing & What Affects Your Fare

Travel Tips for the Texas City → Hobby Run
We need to translate the content inside each - ,
,
, also the tags for terms may be kept but translate the text within? The tags denote labels: "Exact pickup address", "Vehicle size", "Time of day", "Round trip". They should be translated to Spanish, but keep strong tags. The content after the dash: e.g., "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay." That's a sentence; need translation.
We must keep city/airport names and codes unchanged: I-45, Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area, Galveston Bay, Texas City, Hobby (presumably William P. Hobby Airport). Also the URLs unchanged: https://texasshuttle.ridebitsapp.com/central/new_reservation. Phone numbers none.
Also keep the promo code ONLINE unchanged (uppercase). Keep the 10% off maybe keep as is? Could translate "10%" unchanged; "off" maybe translate to "de descuento"? Usually in Latin America they say "10% de descuento". But they might keep "off". However instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Phone numbers and URLs unchanged. For other text, translate. So "10% off" could be translated as "10% de descuento". But "off" is not a city/airport name. Should translate. However the phrase "10% off" inside strong tags: we could translate to "10% de descuento" but keep the strong tags. The numeric part unchanged. That's okay.
Also "online booking tool" inside tag's visible text: translate to "herramienta de reserva en línea" or "herramienta de reserva en línea". Keep the tag unchanged except the inner text. Also the title attribute: title="Get an instant Texas City to Hobby shuttle quote" should be translated? The instruction says keep URLs unchanged, but title attribute is not a URL; it's text. Should we translate? Likely yes, as it's content. The title attribute contains English phrase; we should translate to Spanish. However note that they said "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." That includes attributes; but we can change the content inside attributes as it's not a tag. The instruction: "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." Means we should not modify tags themselves, but we can change attribute values? It's ambiguous. Usually they'd want to keep tags unchanged, but content inside can be translated. I think it's safe to translate the title attribute as well, as it's not a tag. However to be safe, maybe keep title unchanged? The instruction didn't explicitly forbid translating attributes. But they said keep HTML tags exactly as-is, meaning we cannot change tag names or attributes? The phrase "HTML tags" includes opening and closing tags, not attribute values. I'd translate the title attribute to Spanish.
Also the — and → entities should remain as they are (they are HTML entities). Keep them.
Now translate each piece.
Let's go line by line.
First li:
Exact pickup address — rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay.
Translate:
"Dirección exacta de recogida" maybe "Dirección exacta de recogida" or "Dirección exacta de recogida". In Latin American Spanish, "dirección exacta de recogida". Use "recogida". Then dash.
After dash: "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay."
We need to translate: "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area)" => "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical)". Keep I-45 unchanged, Gulf Freeway maybe keep as is? It's a proper name; keep unchanged. "Mainland Medical area" maybe keep as is? It's a name; keep unchanged. So "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical)". Then "price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay." => "precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." Keep Galveston Bay unchanged.
Thus full: "Dirección exacta de recogida — traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay."
Check naturalness: maybe "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) tienen un precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." The original said "price slightly lower". So we need verb: "tienen un precio ligeramente inferior". Let's incorporate.
Thus: "Dirección exacta de recogida — los traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) tienen un precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay."
Second li:
Vehicle size — sedan for 1–3 passengers, SUV for 4 with luggage, full shuttle/van for 5–14.
Translate: "Tamaño del vehículo" — sedan for 1–3 passengers, SUV for 4 with luggage, full shuttle/van for 5–14.
We need to translate the description: "sedan for 1–3 passengers" => "sedán para 1–3 pasajeros". Keep the en dash? Use – entity. Keep as is.
"SUV for 4 with luggage" => "SUV para 4 con equipaje". Keep luggage maybe "equipaje". "full shuttle/van for 5–14" => "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Could say "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Keep slash? Could keep "shuttle/van". We'll translate: "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Keep the slash? Maybe "van/shuttle". Keep as is.
Thus: "Tamaño del vehículo — sedán para 1–3 pasajeros, SUV para 4 con equipaje, van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros."
Third li:
Time of day — pre-dawn pickups (before 5:00 AM) and late-night pickups (after 11:00 PM) carry a modest after-hours adjustment.
Translate: "Hora del día" — los recogidas antes del amanecer (antes de las 5:00 a.m.) y las recogidas nocturnas (después de las 11:00 p.m.) tienen
We need to translate the content inside the list items to natural Latin American Spanish, preserving HTML tags. City/airport names and codes unchanged. Phone numbers/URLs unchanged. Keep tags like , - , , . Must return only the translated HTML.
We need to translate English sentences inside
- tags, but keep the tags as is. Also keep the tags content translated? The tags contain the heading like "Hobby vs IAH:" etc. We need to translate them to Spanish naturally, but preserve the tags. The text inside the tags should be translated. The rest of the sentence after the strong tag also translate.
Check each

- Hobby vs IAH: Hobby is the closer Houston airport from Texas City (~30 miles vs ~60 miles to IAH) and is the better pick for Southwest, JetBlue, and Spirit. If your itinerary requires American, United, or most international long-haul carriers, you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our Texas City to IAH shuttle.
We need to translate: "Hobby is the closer Houston airport from Texas City (~30 miles vs ~60 miles to IAH) and is the better pick for Southwest, JetBlue, and Spirit." => Spanish: "Hobby es el aeropuerto de Houston más cercano a Texas City (~30 millas vs ~60 millas a IAH) y es la mejor opción para Southwest, JetBlue y Spirit."
Next sentence: "If your itinerary requires American, United, or most international long-haul carriers, you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our Spanish: "Si tu itinerario requiere American, United o la mayoría de las aerolíneas internacionales de largo recorrido, volarás desde IAH en su lugar — mira nuestro ..." Keep ’ as is? The original uses ’ (apostrophe). Should keep it unchanged? The instruction: Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. Doesn't say to keep HTML entities unchanged, but likely we should keep them as is because they are part of HTML. However we can translate the surrounding text but keep the entity as is. So "you’ll" remains. We'll translate "you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our". So "volarás desde IAH en su lugar — mira nuestro". Keep the ’ inside "you’ll"? Actually we are replacing that with "volarás". So we should not keep the entity; we replace with Spanish word. The entity is part of the source; we can translate and not keep the entity because we are changing the word. The instruction: Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. It didn't say to keep HTML entities unchanged. So we can translate.
Thus final for first li: - Hobby vs IAH: Hobby es el aeropuerto de Houston más cercano a Texas City (~30 millas vs ~60 millas a IAH) y es la mejor opción para Southwest, JetBlue y Spirit. Si tu itinerario requiere American, United o la mayoría de las aerolíneas internacionales de largo recorrido, volarás desde IAH en su lugar — mira nuestro Texas City to IAH shuttle.
Second li: - I-45 rush windows: The 6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM windows on I-45 N through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can add 20–30 minutes. For 7–9 AM Southwest departures, we’ll often suggest a slightly earlier pickup so you stay ahead of the worst of it.
Translate: "The 6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM windows on I-45 N through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can add 20–30 minutes." => "Los rangos de 6:30–9:00 a.m. y 4:00–7:00 p.m. en la I-45 N a través de League City, Webster y el intercambio de Beltway 8 pueden añadir 20–30 minutos." Keep the – as is? It's an HTML entity for en dash. We can keep as is or replace with a normal dash? Probably keep as is because it's part of HTML. However we can keep the entity. The instruction only says keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged, not entities. But it's safer to keep them as they are; they are not changing meaning. We'll keep –.
Next: "For 7–9 AM Southwest departures, we’ll often suggest a slightly earlier pickup so you stay ahead of the worst of it." => "Para las salidas de Southwest de 7–9 a.m., a menudo sugerimos un recogida ligeramente más temprana para que te adelantes al peor de ello." Keep we’ll? We'll translate to "a menudo sugerimos". So we replace the entity.
Thus second li: - I-45 rush windows: Los rangos de 6:30–9:00 AM y 4:00–7:00 PM en la I-45 N a través de League City, Webster y el intercambio de Beltway 8 pueden añadir 20–30 minutos. Para las salidas de Southwest de 7–9 AM, a menudo sugerimos un recogida ligeramente más temprana para que te adelantes al peor de ello.
Third li: - Refinery traffic: Shift-change traffic around the Texas City refineries (~6–7 AM and ~3–4 PM) can briefly slow Loop 197 and FM-1764. We route around it when we can.
Translate: "Shift-change traffic around the Texas City refineries (~6–7 AM and ~3–4 PM) can briefly slow Loop 197 and FM-1764." => "El tráfico de cambio de turno alrededor de las refinerías de Texas City (~6–7 a.m. y ~3–4 p.m.) puede ralentizar brevemente el Loop 197 y la FM-1764." Keep – as is.
Next: "We route around it when we can." => "Lo evitamos cuando podemos." Or "Lo evitamos cuando podemos." So third li: - Refinery traffic: El tráfico de cambio de turno alrededor de las refinerías de Texas City (~6–7 AM y ~3–4 PM) puede ralentizar brevemente el Loop 197 y la FM-1764.

We need to translate the HTML content to natural Latin American Spanish, preserving tags, city/airport names, codes, phone numbers, URLs unchanged. Provide only translated HTML.
We must keep tags exactly as-is. So we need to translate text within tags, but not alter tags themselves, attributes, etc. The HTML snippet:
- Luggage: Two checked bags + one carry-on per passenger fit comfortably in our sedans. Traveling with golf clubs, oversized luggage, a child car seat, or a stroller? Note it at booking so we send the right vehicle.
- Same-day pickups: We can usually accommodate same-day Texas City→Hobby pickups with 2–3 hours’ notice — book online or call (817) 403-6196.
Nearby Galveston County & I-45 South Routes We Serve
If you’re booking for friends or family along the I-45 South corridor, we run the same flat-rate, door-to-door private service to Hobby from neighboring towns:
- League City to Hobby shuttle — the next major town north on I-45.
- Galveston to Hobby shuttle — from the island, just south of Texas City.
- Pearland to Hobby shuttle — west of Hobby in southern Harris County.
- Sugar Land to Hobby shuttle — southwest Houston suburb.
We need to translate text content: inside tags (including inside , plain text, anchor text, title attributes, alt text? There's title attribute on . Title attribute should be translated? The instruction: Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. It didn't explicitly say to keep title unchanged. It says translate the HTML from English to natural Latin American Spanish for travelers. The title attribute is part of content; we should translate it, as it's textual content. However, must preserve the attribute syntax. Title attribute value is "League City to Hobby shuttle". Should translate to Spanish: "Liga City a Hobby shuttle"? Wait "League City" is a city name, should stay unchanged. "Hobby" is airport? It's William P. Hobby Airport? The code? Probably "Hobby" as location; keep unchanged. So translate "League City to Hobby shuttle" to something like "Traslado de League City a Hobby". Or "Servicio de traslado de League City a Hobby". Keep city names unchanged. So we can translate "League City to Hobby shuttle" to "Traslado de League City a Hobby". Or "Servicio de traslado League City a Hobby". Choose natural.
Similarly for other title attributes: "Galveston to Hobby shuttle", "Pearland to Hobby shuttle", "Sugar Land to Hobby shuttle".
Also alt? No alt.
We also have text inside : "Luggage:" and "Same-day pickups:" translate: "Equipaje:" and "Recogidas el mismo día:" maybe. Natural Latin American Spanish: "Equipaje:" and "Recogidas el mismo día:" or "Recogidas el mismo día:" (though "pickups" as in "pick-up service". Use "Recogidas el mismo día". Could also be "Servicio de recogida el mismo día". Keep natural.
Then the sentences.
We need to keep HTML tags exactly as-is. So we must not change tags, but we can change the inner text. Ensure we keep entities like →, –, ’, —, & unchanged. Those are HTML entities; they should stay as is.
Now translate each piece.
First - :
Original:
- Luggage: Two checked bags + one carry-on per passenger fit comfortably in our sedans. Traveling with golf clubs, oversized luggage, a child car seat, or a stroller? Note it at booking so we send the right vehicle.
Translate:
"Equipaje: Dos equipajes facturados + una bolsa de mano por pasajero caben cómodamente en nuestros sedanes. ¿Viaja con palos de golf, equipaje sobresized, un asiento de auto para niño o un cochecito? Indíquelo al reservar para que enviemos el vehículo adecuado."
But need natural Latin American Spanish. "Two checked bags" = "Dos maletas facturadas". "one carry-on" = "una pieza de equipaje de mano". "fit comfortably" = "caben cómodamente". "our sedans" = "nuestros sedanes". "Traveling with golf clubs, oversized luggage, a child car seat, or a stroller?" = "¿Viaja con palos de golf, equipaje de gran tamaño, un asiento de coche para bebé o un cochecito?" (child car seat = "silla de auto para bebé" or "silla de automóvil para niño"). Use "silla de auto para bebé". "Note it at booking so we send the right vehicle." = "Indíquelo al hacer la reserva para que enviemos el vehículo adecuado."
Now second - :
- Same-day pickups: We can usually accommodate same-day Texas City→Hobby pickups with 2–3 hours’ notice — book online or call (817) 403-6196.
Translate: "Recogidas el mismo día: Por lo general podemos atender recogidas el mismo día de Texas City→Hobby con 2‑3 horas de aviso — reserve en línea o llame al (817) 403-6196."
But need to keep the entities: → remains; – remains; ’ remains; — remains.
So inner text: "Por lo general podemos atender recogidas el mismo día de Texas City→Hobby con 2–3 horas de aviso — reserve en línea o llame al (817) 403-6196."
Check "book online" => "reserve en línea". "call" => "llame". Keep phone number same.
Now after
we have Nearby Galveston County & I-45 South Routes We Serve
Translate: "Rutas cercanas en el condado de Galveston & I-45 Sur que servimos
" Keep & unchanged.
But need to keep "Galveston County" unchanged? It's a county name; we could keep "Condado de Galveston". The instruction: Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. County maybe considered a proper name? It says city/airport names and codes unchanged. Not explicitly county. But safer to keep "Galveston County" unchanged? The phrase is "Nearby Galveston County & I-45 South Routes We Serve". Could translate "Rutas cercanas del condado de Galveston & I-45 Sur que servimos". Keep "Galveston" unchanged, but "County" could translate to "condado". I'd go with translating "County" to "condado" as it's not a city/airport. But if they want strict keep, we could keep "Galveston County". However "Nearby Galveston County" maybe they'd accept translation. I'll translate to natural Spanish: "Rutas cercanas en el condado de Galveston & I-45 Sur que servimos". Keep &.
Now If you’re booking for friends or family along the I-45 South corridor, we run the same flat-rate, door-to-door private service to Hobby from neighboring towns:
Translate: "Si está reservando para amigos o familia a lo largo del corredor I-45 Sur, ofrecemos el mismo servicio privado puerta a puerta de tarifa fija a Hobby desde ciudades cercanas:

Check: "flat-rate" => "tarifa fija". "door-to-door private service" => "servicio privado puerta a puerta". "we run the same" => "ofrecemos el mismo". Keep "I-45 South corridor" => "corredor I-45 Sur". Keep
We need to translate HTML content to natural Latin American Spanish, preserving tags, city/airport names and codes, phone numbers and URLs unchanged.

During weekday rush hours (6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM), allow 50–75 minutes for I-45 congestion through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange.
What route does the Texas City to Hobby shuttle take?
We need to translate the text content (not attributes? The title attribute also needs translation? The instruction says "Translate this airport-shuttle landing-page HTML from English to NATURAL, native Latin American Spanish for travelers. Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged."
We must preserve tags exactly. The content inside tags (including attribute values like title) should be translated unless they contain city/airport names/codes or URLs? The title attribute contains text like "Texas City to IAH shuttle". That text should be translated to Spanish, but we must keep the tags and the attribute name unchanged. Also, inside href attributes we must not change URLs (they remain same). Also, we must keep city/airport names and codes unchanged (e.g., Texas City, IAH, Hobby, I-45 North, League City, Webster, Beltway 8). Also phone numbers (none present). URLs unchanged.
Thus we need to translate the visible text and also the title attribute values.
Let's go piece by piece.
First part:
- Texas City to IAH shuttle — same origin, alternate Houston airport.
We translate the anchor text "Texas City to IAH shuttle" and title attribute similarly, preserving tags.
"Texas City to IAH shuttle" -> Spanish: "Traslado de Texas City a IAH" maybe "Servicio de traslado de Texas City al aeropuerto IAH"? But we need natural Latin American Spanish for travelers. Likely "Traslado de Texas City a IAH". Keep "IAH" unchanged.
Title attribute same: "Texas City to IAH shuttle". Should become same translation: "Traslado de Texas City a IAH". However ensure not to break HTML: title="Traslado de Texas City a IAH". Keep quotes.
Now the dash text: " — same origin, alternate Houston airport." (using —). Translate: " — mismo origen, aeropuerto alterno de Houston." Actually "alternate Houston airport" meaning alternate airport in Houston. So " — mismo origen, aeropuerto alterno de Houston." Keep dash.
Second list item:
- Houston airport shuttle hub — full directory of Houston-area routes.
Translate anchor text: "Houston airport shuttle hub". Could be "Centro de traslados al aeropuerto de Houston". But "hub" as "núcleo" maybe "Centro de traslados al aeropuerto de Houston". Keep "Houston". Title attribute same.
Dash: " — full directory of Houston-area routes." Translate: " — directorio completo de rutas del área de Houston."
Now after
we have Frequently Asked Questions
Translate: "Preguntas frecuentes". Keep h2 tags.
Then How much does a shuttle from Texas City to Hobby cost?
Translate: "¿Cuánto cuesta el traslado de Texas City a Hobby?" or "¿Cuánto cuesta el servicio de traslado de Texas City a Hobby?" Natural Latin American Spanish: "¿Cuánto cuesta el traslado de Texas City a Hobby?" Keep h3.
Then ...
We need to translate paragraph content, preserving tags, and keep numbers, codes unchanged.
Paragraph:
"Texas City to Hobby fares start at about $59, with most one-way sedan trips running $59–$90.

Translate:
"Las tarifas del traslado de Texas City a Hobby comienzan en aproximadamente $59, con la mayoría de los viajes sencillos en sedán entre $59‑$90. Las tarifas son tarifas fijas por vehículo e incluyen todo — sin taxímetro, sin tarifas dinámicas, sin cargos por equipaje ni cargos ocultos. Ingrese en línea la dirección de recogida en Texas City, el Aeropuerto Hobby y el número de pasajeros para ver su tarifa fija antes de reservar. Use el código promocional ONLINE para obtener un 10 % de descuento en viajes de ida y vuelta."
Need to keep – as is? The original uses – (HTML entity). We should keep it unchanged as per instruction to keep tags exactly as-is; but – is an entity, not a tag. It's part of the content. Should we keep it? The instruction says keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. Entities are not tags but they are part of the HTML. Likely we should keep them unchanged as they are not to be altered. However we could replace with a normal dash? Safer to keep the entity as is. In the translation we may keep – inside tags: we have $59–$90. Keep that.
Also need to keep the dash entity — used elsewhere. Keep them.
Now translate rest.
"Fares are flat-rate per vehicle and all-inclusive — no metering, surge pricing, per-bag charges, or hidden fees." => "Las tarifas son tarifas fijas por vehículo e incluyen todo — sin taxímetro, sin tarifas dinámicas, sin cargos por equipaje ni cargos ocultos."

"Use promo code ONLINE for 10% off round trips." => "Use el código promocional ONLINE para obtener un 10 % de descuento en viajes de ida y vuelta."
We need to keep the percent sign maybe as is. Use space? Keep as original: "10%". We'll keep "10%" maybe with a non-breaking space? Keep as is.
Now next How far is Texas City from Hobby Airport, and how long is the drive?
Translate: "¿Qué distancia hay entre Texas City y el Aeropuerto Hobby, y cuánto tiempo dura el viaje?" Or "¿A qué distancia está Texas City del Aeropuerto Hobby y cuánto tarda el viaje?" Natural: "¿Qué distancia hay entre Texas City y el Aeropuerto Hobby, y cuánto tiempo se tarda en llegar?" Let's pick: "¿Qué distancia hay
We need to translate the provided HTML content to natural, native Latin American Spanish for travelers. Keep all HTML tags exactly as-is. Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. Return only the translated HTML.
We need to translate the text inside the tags, not modify tags or attributes except the content (including inside title attribute? The instruction says keep URLs unchanged; but title attribute contains text; that should be translated as it's not a URL. However title attribute contains "Texas City to IAH shuttle". Should we translate that? Likely yes, as it's not a URL. The instruction: Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. Title attribute is not a URL, so we can translate. However the anchor tag's href attribute is a URL; keep unchanged. So we translate the link text and title attribute.
We need to produce natural Latin American Spanish.
Let's parse the HTML:
We head north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) from Texas City through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for William P. Hobby Airport. We don’t detour through Galveston, the Bolivar Peninsula, or the Highway 225 industrial corridor — the I-45 N route is shorter and faster.
Which Houston airport does the Texas City shuttle serve — Hobby or IAH?
We serve both. Hobby (HOU) is the closer airport from Texas City (~30 miles) and is the right choice for Southwest, Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit. George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) is about 60 miles north and handles American, United, and most international long-haul flights. Book our Texas City to IAH shuttle for those flights.
Will you pick me up at my specific address in Texas City?
Yes. We pick you up directly at your Texas City home, hotel, or business address — anywhere in 77590, 77591, and 77592 — and drop you at the Hobby departures curb. There is no central meeting point to drive to. We do the same in reverse for arrivals.
How early should I leave Texas City to catch my flight at Hobby?
We need to translate to Spanish.
Important: Keep HTML tags exactly as-is. So we must preserve the tags, including ,
, ,
, etc. Also keep the ’ and — entities as they are. Also keep any special characters like ~, parentheses, etc.
We must translate the text content inside tags, but not modify the tags themselves. Also need to translate any text inside attributes like title.
Let's translate each segment.
First paragraph:
Original: "We head north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) from Texas City through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for William P. Hobby Airport. We don’t detour through Galveston, the Bolivar Peninsula, or the Highway 225 industrial corridor — the I-45 N route is shorter and faster."
Translate to natural Latin American Spanish:
"We head north on I-45 (the Gulf Freeway) from Texas City through La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster, and Pearland, then exit at Airport Boulevard (Exit 38) for William P. Hobby Airport."
=> "Nos dirigimos hacia el norte por la I-45 (el Gulf Freeway) desde Texas City pasando por La Marque, Dickinson, League City, Webster y Pearland, luego salimos en Airport Boulevard (salida 38) hacia el Aeropuerto William P. Hobby."
But we need natural Latin American Spanish. Use "Nos dirigimos hacia el norte por la I-45 (el Gulf Freeway)" maybe better "Nos dirigimos hacia el norte por la I-45 (la Gulf Freeway)". Actually "the Gulf Freeway" is a proper name; keep as is? Usually we translate "the Gulf Freeway" as "el Gulf Freeway" but could keep as "el Gulf Freeway". We'll keep as "el Gulf Freeway". Might keep parentheses.
Second sentence: "We don’t detour through Galveston, the Bolivar Peninsula, or the Highway 225 industrial corridor — the I-45 N route is shorter and faster."
Translate: "No hacemos desvios por Galveston, la península de Bolivar o el corredor industrial de la Highway 225 — la ruta I-45 N es más corta y rápida."
Make sure to keep ’ and — entities. So we need to keep the apostrophe as ’ inside the translated text? The original had "don’t". We need to keep that entity exactly? The instruction: Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. It didn't say to keep entities unchanged, but they are part of the HTML content. Safer to keep them as they are. So we should keep "’" and "—" exactly as they appear. So we must not change them. So we need to produce text that includes those entities unchanged.
Thus we need to translate around them but keep them.
Original: "We don’t detour through Galveston, the Bolivar Peninsula, or the Highway 225 industrial corridor — the I-45 N route is shorter and faster."
We need to translate but keep "don’t" and "—". So maybe: "No hacemos desvios por Galveston, la península de Bolivar o el corredor industrial de la Highway 225 — la ruta I-45 N es más corta y rápida." Keep "’" inside "don’t"? Actually we need to keep "don’t". So we need to keep that exact string: "don’t". So the Spanish phrase should start with "No" and then the rest, but we need to keep "don’t"? Wait "don’t" is the contraction of "do not". In Spanish we would not use that; we would say "No hacemos desvios". So we would replace "don’t" with "No". But the instruction says keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is. It does not say to keep the text unchanged. So we can change the text, but we must keep the tags unchanged. Entities are not tags; they are part of the text. However they are HTML entities; they represent characters. Changing them could change meaning. Usually we keep them as they are if they represent punctuation like apostrophe or em dash. If we replace "don’t" with "No", we would be removing the entity. That's okay? The entity is representing an apostrophe; if we replace with "No", we lose the apostrophe but we don't need it. However we might be altering the text more than needed. It's probably safer to keep the entity as is, but we need to translate the surrounding words. But "don’t" is part of the phrase; we could keep it and translate the rest? That would result in something like "don’t hacemos desvios..." which is weird. So we should translate the meaning, but we can replace the entity with the appropriate Spanish apostrophe? In Spanish we use same apostrophe character for contractions like "del" or "al"? Actually Spanish uses apostrophe rarely; we don't have contractions like "don't". So we would not need the apostrophe entity. So we can replace "don’t" with "No". That changes the entity but not a tag. The instruction only mentions tags, not entities. So it's acceptable.
But to be safe, we could keep the entity and translate around it: "No hacemos desvios por Galveston, la península de Bolivar, o el corredor industrial de la Highway 225 — la ruta I-45 N es más corta y rápida." This uses "No" and keeps the — entity.
Thus we will replace "don’t" with "No". Keep "—". Good.
Now second part: Which Houston airport does the Texas City shuttle serve — Hobby or IAH?
Translate: "¿A qué aeropuerto de Houston sirve el traslado de Texas City — Hobby o IAH?" But need natural Latin American Spanish. "¿A qué aeropuerto de Houston sirve el servicio de traslado de Texas City — Hobby o IAH?" Or "¿A qué aeropuerto de Houston va el traslado de Texas City — Hobby o IAH?" Since "serve" meaning "Which airport does the shuttle serve". Could be "¿A qué
We need to translate the HTML content to natural Latin American Spanish, preserving tags, city/airport names, phone numbers, URLs unchanged. There's no phone numbers or URLs in the given snippet. Just need to translate text.
We must return ONLY the translated HTML.
Let's go line by line.
Original:
For domestic flights we recommend curbside arrival at Hobby two hours before departure; for international flights via the West Concourse, allow three hours. Off-peak, that means a roughly 2.5–3 hour total window from Texas City pickup to gate. Add 30 minutes during weekday rush.
Translate to natural Latin American Spanish. "For domestic flights we recommend curbside arrival at Hobby two hours before departure;" could be: "Para los vuelos nacionales recomendamos llegar al mostrador de la acera en Hobby con dos horas de antelación;" but maintain tags same.
"curbside arrival" could be "llegada al mostrador de acera" maybe "llegada en la acera". Common phrase: "llegada al mostrador de la acera". Or "llegada al mostrador de la acera" but "curbside" is "en la acera". Probably "llegada al mostrador de la acera". Let's keep natural: "llegada al mostrador de la acera". Also "Texas City" unchanged.
Thus: "Para los vuelos nacionales recomendamos la llegada al mostrador de la acera en Hobby dos horas antes de la salida; para los vuelos internacionales a través del West Concourse, permita tres horas. En horas valle, eso significa una ventana total de aproximadamente 2.5–3 horas desde el recogida en Texas City hasta la puerta. Añada 30 minutos durante la hora pico de entre semana.
"
Check: "Add 30 minutes during weekday rush." -> "Añada 30 minutos durante la hora pico de entre semana." Good.
Second block:
How much luggage can I bring on the shuttle?
Two checked bags plus one carry-on per passenger fit comfortably in our sedans, with room for additional items in our SUVs and vans. If you have oversized luggage, golf clubs, a child car seat, or a stroller, note it at booking so we send the right vehicle. There are no per-bag charges.
Translate:
¿Cuánto equipaje puedo llevar en el shuttle?
(maybe "shuttle" remains as is? It's a proper name? Should keep as is? Usually translate "shuttle" as "traslado" but it's a service name, might keep "shuttle". The instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Not about service terms. Probably translate "shuttle" as "traslado" but could keep "shuttle". Many Latin American Spanish keep "shuttle" as is. I'd keep "shuttle" unchanged because it's a term used in the page. But they said "natural Latin American Spanish for travelers". Usually they'd translate to "traslado". I'm leaning to translate but keep tag. Let's see: The phrase "How much luggage can I bring on the shuttle?" would be "¿Cuánto equipaje puedo llevar en el traslado?" Might be natural. I'll go with that.
Now translate paragraph: "Two checked bags plus one carry-on per passenger fit comfortably in our sedans, with room for additional items in our SUVs and vans." => "Dos facturados más una maleta de mano por pasajero caben cómodamente en nuestros sedanes, con espacio para artículos adicionales en nuestras SUVs y furgonetas." Keep "SUVs" unchanged. "vans" maybe "furgonetas". Could keep "vans". I'll translate to "furgonetas". Keep "SUVs" as is.
Next: "If you have oversized luggage, golf clubs, a child car seat, or a stroller, note it at booking so we send the right vehicle." => "Si tiene equipaje de tamaño excesivo, palos de golf, un asiento para auto de niño o un coche de bebé, indíquelo al reservar para que enviemos el vehículo adecuado." Note: "child car seat" = "silla de auto para niño" or "asiento para auto de niño". Use "silla de auto para niño". "stroller" = "coche de bebé" or "carrito de bebé". Use "coche de bebé". "note it at booking" => "indíquelo al reservar". Good.
Finally: "There are no per-bag charges." => "No hay cargos por equipaje."
Third block:
What happens if my flight is delayed at Hobby Airport?
Share your flight number at booking and we track it live. If your Hobby arrival runs late, your pickup time adjusts automatically — no need to call. We’ll meet you at baggage claim or curbside per your preference.
Translate:
¿Qué pasa si mi vuelo se retrasa en el Aeropuerto Hobby?
keep "Hobby Airport" as "Aeropuerto Hobby". Actually "Hobby Airport" unchanged? They said keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. "Hobby Airport" is name; we should keep "Hobby Airport". But we can translate "Airport" to "Aeropuerto"? It's part of the name? Usually "Hobby Airport" is proper name; we should keep exactly "Hobby Airport". So we should not translate "Airport". So we keep "Hobby Airport". So phrase: "¿Qué pasa si mi vuelo se retrasa en Hobby Airport?" Let's keep that.
Paragraph: "Share your flight number at booking and we track it live." => "Comparta su número de vuelo al reservar y lo seguimos en tiempo real." (Natural Latin American Spanish).
"If your Hobby arrival runs late, your pickup time adjusts automatically — no need to call." => "Si su llegada a Hobby se retrasa, su hora de recogida se ajusta automáticamente — no es necesario llamar." Keep em dash? They used — we keep as is. We'll keep the same entity.
"We’ll meet you at baggage claim or curbside per your preference." => "Nos encontraremos en la reclamo de equipaje o en la acera, según su preferencia." "curbside" maybe "en la acera". Use "en la acera". Good.
Fourth block:
Is the Texas City to Hobby shuttle available 24/7?
Yes. Rides run around the clock, including pre-dawn Southwest departures and late-night arrivals. Book in advance so a vehicle is reserved for your exact pickup time — early-morning Hobby flights and late-night arrivals book up quickly.
Translate:
¿Está disponible el traslado de Texas City a Hobby las 24 horas, los 7 días de la semana?
maybe "24/7" keep as is? Usually translate to "las 24 horas, los 7 días". But we could keep "24/7". The instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Not about 24/7. I'd translate to natural Spanish: "¿Está disponible el traslado de Texas City a Hobby las 24 horas, los 7 días de la semana?" Keep "shuttle" maybe "traslado". I'll use "traslado". But we earlier translated shuttle as traslado. Keep consistent.
Paragraph: "Yes. Rides run around the clock, including pre-dawn Southwest departures and late-night arrivals. Book in advance so a vehicle is reserved for your exact pickup time — early-morning Hobby flights and late-night arrivals book up quickly."
Translate: "Sí. Los traslados operan las 24 horas, incluyendo las salidas al amanecer de Southwest y las llegadas nocturnas. Reserve con anticipación para que se reserve un vehículo para su hora exacta de recogida — las salidas temprano en la mañana de Hobby y las llegadas nocturnas se agotan rápidamente."
Check: "Rides run around the clock" => "Los traslados operan las 24 horas". "including pre-dawn Southwest departures and late-night arrivals." => "incluyendo las salidas al amanecer de Southwest y las llegadas nocturnas". "Book in advance so a vehicle is reserved for your exact pickup time" => "Reserve con anticipación para que se reserve un vehículo para su hora exacta de recogida". "—" keep same.

Check: keep HOU unchanged. Keep "’" after usted? We placed "usted’vuele". No space. Might need a space after the entity? Original had no space: you’re. So we follow same pattern: no space. Good. Now next:Route, Distance & Drive Time: Texas City → Hobby

- Weekday rush (6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM): 50–75 minutes — the I-45 stretch through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can crawl during commute hours.
- Holiday weekends and major Houston events: add 15–30 minutes; pickup earlier in those windows.
About William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)
Hobby Airport sits at 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, about seven miles southeast of downtown Houston and roughly an hour south of George Bush Intercontinental (IAH). Unlike DFW or IAH, Hobby has a single main terminal building — not multiple lettered terminals — with two main areas:
- Central Concourse: Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations.
- West Concourse: Southwest’s international flights (Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean) plus international arrivals processing.
Tell us your airline when you book and we’ll drop you at the closest curb to your gate. There is no walking between separate terminal buildings at Hobby, so transfers are simple.
Pricing & What Affects Your Fare
Texas City to Hobby fares are quoted per vehicle (not per seat), so the price is the same whether 1 or 4 passengers ride. Based on real completed Texas City→Hobby trips, most one-way sedan fares fall in the $59–$90 range, with vans and groups of 5–14 priced separately. What moves the number:
We need to translate: - "About William P. Hobby Airport (HOU)" -> "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)" maybe natural Latin American Spanish: "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)". Could also be "Sobre el Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)". "Acerca de" is fine. Use "Acerca del Aeropuerto William P. Hobby (HOU)". - Inside: "Hobby Airport sits at 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, about seven miles southeast of downtown Houston and roughly an hour south of George Bush Intercontinental (IAH). Unlike DFW or IAH, Hobby has a single main terminal building — not multiple lettered terminals — with two main areas:" Translate: "El Aeropuerto Hobby se encuentra en 7800 Airport Boulevard, Houston, TX 77061, a aproximadamente siete millas al sureste del centro de Houston y a aproximadamente una hora al sur del Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush (IAH). A diferencia de DFW o IAH, Hobby tiene un edificio terminal principal único — no múltiples terminales con letras — con dos áreas principales:" Need to ensure natural Latin American Spanish. Use "a aproximadamente" maybe "a aproximadamente" is okay but could be "a aproximadamente". Might be better: "a unas siete millas al sureste del centro de Houston y a aproximadamente una hora al sur del Aeropuerto Intercontinental George Bush (IAH)". Use "A diferencia de DFW o IAH, Hobby tiene un edificio terminal principal único — no varias terminales con letras — con dos áreas principales:". Check the phrase "single main terminal building": could be "edificio terminal principal único" or "único edificio terminal principal". We'll keep the strong tag around the phrase. We'll translate inside strong: "single main terminal building" -> "edificio terminal principal único". Keep strong tags. - Next
- items.
- Central Concourse: Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations. Translate: "Concourse Central:" maybe "Concourse Central:" but in Spanish often "Concourse Central" stays same? Could translate as "Concourse Central" or "Concourse Central". The term "Concourse" maybe keep as "Concourse" but translate? Usually "Concourse" could be "Concourse" unchanged? In Spanish airports they say "Concourse" maybe "Concourse" as is. But we need natural Latin American Spanish. I'd translate "Concourse Central" as "Concourse Central" maybe "Concourse Central". However "Concourse" is an English term used in airports; could keep as "Concourse". But the instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged; not required to keep generic terms. I'd translate to "Concourse Central". Let's do: "Concourse Central: Southwest Airlines (la aerolínea dominante en HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier y Spirit, operaciones nacionales." But need to preserve strong tag around "Central Concourse:" originally. So we translate inside strong: "Concourse Central:" -> "Concourse Central:". Keep colon. Now the rest: "Southwest Airlines (the dominant carrier at HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit domestic operations." => "Southwest Airlines (la aerolínea dominante en HOU), Delta, JetBlue, Frontier y Spirit, operaciones nacionales." Make sure punctuation natural. Second li:
- West Concourse: Southwest’s international flights (Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean) plus international arrivals processing. Translate: "Concourse Oeste: vuelos internacionales de Southwest (México, Centroamérica y el Caribe) más procesamiento de llegadas internacionales." But need to keep the apostrophe entity ’ inside Southwest’s. We should keep that entity unchanged. So "Southwest’s" stays. Translate: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s (México, Centroamérica, el Caribe) más procesamiento de llegadas internacionales." However "Southwest’s" is possessive; we could keep as is. Might look odd: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s". Better to keep the entity but we could rephrase: "vuelos internacionales de Southwest’s (México, Centroamérica, el Caribe) más el procesamiento de llegadas internacionales." Keep entity. Now next
- Exact pickup address — rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay.
- Vehicle size — sedan for 1–3 passengers, SUV for 4 with luggage, full shuttle/van for 5–14.
- Time of day — pre-dawn pickups (before 5:00 AM) and late-night pickups (after 11:00 PM) carry a modest after-hours adjustment.
- Round trip — book the return at the same time and use promo code ONLINE at checkout for 10% off.
- ,
,
, also the tags for terms may be kept but translate the text within? The tags denote labels: "Exact pickup address", "Vehicle size", "Time of day", "Round trip". They should be translated to Spanish, but keep strong tags. The content after the dash: e.g., "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay." That's a sentence; need translation. We must keep city/airport names and codes unchanged: I-45, Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area, Galveston Bay, Texas City, Hobby (presumably William P. Hobby Airport). Also the URLs unchanged: https://texasshuttle.ridebitsapp.com/central/new_reservation. Phone numbers none. Also keep the promo code ONLINE unchanged (uppercase). Keep the 10% off maybe keep as is? Could translate "10%" unchanged; "off" maybe translate to "de descuento"? Usually in Latin America they say "10% de descuento". But they might keep "off". However instruction: keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. Phone numbers and URLs unchanged. For other text, translate. So "10% off" could be translated as "10% de descuento". But "off" is not a city/airport name. Should translate. However the phrase "10% off" inside strong tags: we could translate to "10% de descuento" but keep the strong tags. The numeric part unchanged. That's okay. Also "online booking tool" inside tag's visible text: translate to "herramienta de reserva en línea" or "herramienta de reserva en línea". Keep the tag unchanged except the inner text. Also the title attribute: title="Get an instant Texas City to Hobby shuttle quote" should be translated? The instruction says keep URLs unchanged, but title attribute is not a URL; it's text. Should we translate? Likely yes, as it's content. The title attribute contains English phrase; we should translate to Spanish. However note that they said "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." That includes attributes; but we can change the content inside attributes as it's not a tag. The instruction: "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." Means we should not modify tags themselves, but we can change attribute values? It's ambiguous. Usually they'd want to keep tags unchanged, but content inside can be translated. I think it's safe to translate the title attribute as well, as it's not a tag. However to be safe, maybe keep title unchanged? The instruction didn't explicitly forbid translating attributes. But they said keep HTML tags exactly as-is, meaning we cannot change tag names or attributes? The phrase "HTML tags" includes opening and closing tags, not attribute values. I'd translate the title attribute to Spanish. Also the — and → entities should remain as they are (they are HTML entities). Keep them. Now translate each piece. Let's go line by line. First li: Exact pickup address — rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay. Translate: "Dirección exacta de recogida" maybe "Dirección exacta de recogida" or "Dirección exacta de recogida". In Latin American Spanish, "dirección exacta de recogida". Use "recogida". Then dash. After dash: "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area) price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay." We need to translate: "rides from near I-45 (Gulf Freeway frontage, Mainland Medical area)" => "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical)". Keep I-45 unchanged, Gulf Freeway maybe keep as is? It's a proper name; keep unchanged. "Mainland Medical area" maybe keep as is? It's a name; keep unchanged. So "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical)". Then "price slightly lower than addresses on the bay side or out near Galveston Bay." => "precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." Keep Galveston Bay unchanged. Thus full: "Dirección exacta de recogida — traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." Check naturalness: maybe "traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) tienen un precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." The original said "price slightly lower". So we need verb: "tienen un precio ligeramente inferior". Let's incorporate. Thus: "Dirección exacta de recogida — los traslados desde cerca de la I-45 (frontal de la Gulf Freeway, área Mainland Medical) tienen un precio ligeramente inferior al de las direcciones del lado de la bahía o cerca de Galveston Bay." Second li: Vehicle size — sedan for 1–3 passengers, SUV for 4 with luggage, full shuttle/van for 5–14. Translate: "Tamaño del vehículo" — sedan for 1–3 passengers, SUV for 4 with luggage, full shuttle/van for 5–14. We need to translate the description: "sedan for 1–3 passengers" => "sedán para 1–3 pasajeros". Keep the en dash? Use – entity. Keep as is. "SUV for 4 with luggage" => "SUV para 4 con equipaje". Keep luggage maybe "equipaje". "full shuttle/van for 5–14" => "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Could say "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Keep slash? Could keep "shuttle/van". We'll translate: "van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros". Keep the slash? Maybe "van/shuttle". Keep as is. Thus: "Tamaño del vehículo — sedán para 1–3 pasajeros, SUV para 4 con equipaje, van o shuttle completo para 5–14 pasajeros." Third li: Time of day — pre-dawn pickups (before 5:00 AM) and late-night pickups (after 11:00 PM) carry a modest after-hours adjustment.

The text inside the tags should be translated. The rest of the sentence after the strong tag also translate. Check each

- Hobby vs IAH: Hobby is the closer Houston airport from Texas City (~30 miles vs ~60 miles to IAH) and is the better pick for Southwest, JetBlue, and Spirit. If your itinerary requires American, United, or most international long-haul carriers, you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our Texas City to IAH shuttle. We need to translate: "Hobby is the closer Houston airport from Texas City (~30 miles vs ~60 miles to IAH) and is the better pick for Southwest, JetBlue, and Spirit." => Spanish: "Hobby es el aeropuerto de Houston más cercano a Texas City (~30 millas vs ~60 millas a IAH) y es la mejor opción para Southwest, JetBlue y Spirit." Next sentence: "If your itinerary requires American, United, or most international long-haul carriers, you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our Spanish: "Si tu itinerario requiere American, United o la mayoría de las aerolíneas internacionales de largo recorrido, volarás desde IAH en su lugar — mira nuestro ..." Keep ’ as is? The original uses ’ (apostrophe). Should keep it unchanged? The instruction: Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. Doesn't say to keep HTML entities unchanged, but likely we should keep them as is because they are part of HTML. However we can translate the surrounding text but keep the entity as is. So "you’ll" remains. We'll translate "you’ll fly out of IAH instead — see our". So "volarás desde IAH en su lugar — mira nuestro". Keep the ’ inside "you’ll"? Actually we are replacing that with "volarás". So we should not keep the entity; we replace with Spanish word. The entity is part of the source; we can translate and not keep the entity because we are changing the word. The instruction: Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged. It didn't say to keep HTML entities unchanged. So we can translate. Thus final for first li:

- I-45 rush windows: The 6:30–9:00 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM windows on I-45 N through League City, Webster, and the Beltway 8 interchange can add 20–30 minutes. For 7–9 AM Southwest departures, we’ll often suggest a slightly earlier pickup so you stay ahead of the worst of it.

Keep the – as is? It's an HTML entity for en dash. We can keep as is or replace with a normal dash? Probably keep as is because it's part of HTML. However we can keep the entity. The instruction only says keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged, not entities. But it's safer to keep them as they are; they are not changing meaning. We'll keep –. Next: "For 7–9 AM Southwest departures, we’ll often suggest a slightly earlier pickup so you stay ahead of the worst of it." => "Para las salidas de Southwest de 7–9 a.m., a menudo sugerimos un recogida ligeramente más temprana para que te adelantes al peor de ello." Keep we’ll? We'll translate to "a menudo sugerimos". So we replace the entity. Thus second li:

- Refinery traffic: Shift-change traffic around the Texas City refineries (~6–7 AM and ~3–4 PM) can briefly slow Loop 197 and FM-1764. We route around it when we can.

Next: "for at-risk pickups we’ll text you the night before with a routing update." => "para los recogidas de riesgo, te enviaremos un mensaje de texto la noche anterior con una actualización de ruta."

The title attribute is part of content; we should translate it, as it's textual content. However, must preserve the attribute syntax. Title attribute value is "League City to Hobby shuttle". Should translate to Spanish: "Liga City a Hobby shuttle"? Wait "League City" is a city name, should stay unchanged. "Hobby" is airport? It's William P. Hobby Airport? The code? Probably "Hobby" as location; keep unchanged. So translate "League City to Hobby shuttle" to something like "Traslado de League City a Hobby". Or "Servicio de traslado de League City a Hobby". Keep city names unchanged. So we can translate "League City to Hobby shuttle" to "Traslado de League City a Hobby". Or "Servicio de traslado League City a Hobby". Choose natural. Similarly for other title attributes: "Galveston to Hobby shuttle", "Pearland to Hobby shuttle", "Sugar Land to Hobby shuttle". Also alt? No alt. We also have text inside : "Luggage:" and "Same-day pickups:" translate: "Equipaje:" and "Recogidas el mismo día:" maybe. Natural Latin American Spanish: "Equipaje:" and "Recogidas el mismo día:" or "Recogidas el mismo día:" (though "pickups" as in "pick-up service". Use "Recogidas el mismo día".

County maybe considered a proper name? It says city/airport names and codes unchanged. Not explicitly county. But safer to keep "Galveston County" unchanged? The phrase is "Nearby Galveston County & I-45 South Routes We Serve". Could translate "Rutas cercanas del condado de Galveston & I-45 Sur que servimos". Keep "Galveston" unchanged, but "County" could translate to "condado". I'd go with translating "County" to "condado" as it's not a city/airport.
