25 gates, opened in 2003. Mostly Southwest domestic flights, plus the other airlines' flights. It also has an interfaith chapel.
William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) is Houston's second commercial airport, in Texas, United States, and the closer of the city's two main airports to downtown, about 7 miles away in the Greater Hobby neighborhood. It is a different airport from George Bush Intercontinental (IAH), Houston's larger hub in the north of the city.
Southwest Airlines has an operating base here and carries most of the passengers, with a large domestic network and international flights to Cancún, Puerto Vallarta, Los Cabos, Belize City, Costa Rica, San Juan and, in season, Montego Bay and Punta Cana. Delta, American Eagle, Allegiant, JSX and Sun Country add a handful of routes.
The airport has one terminal with 30 gates on two concourses. The Central Concourse handles mostly domestic flights, and the West Concourse, opened in 2015, handles Southwest's international flights and is being extended with seven more gates by 2027.
From the airport, most travelers head into downtown Houston, the Texas Medical Center and the southeast side of the city, or south toward Clear Lake and Galveston, which is also served by scheduled shuttles.
