They used to have a flight between the two that went a couple times a day. You poors can keep your shared ride services and your cattle cars. I will take to the skies.
That was the Continental shuttle from IAH to Ellington, not Hobby.Milwaukees Best Light said:

Nope....I flew from Hobby to IAH once. Had a flight out of IAH and the only flight we could catch back in was to Hobby...this was maybe 15 years ago. Actually flew the Continental shuttle from Hobby to IAH....what a great flight...up and down over downtown.blindey said:That was the Continental shuttle from IAH to Ellington, not Hobby.Milwaukees Best Light said:

Pretty much what I did, but I was flying back from a different city that I drove to.IrishTxAggie said:
My guess:
Two one-way Delta bookings and he wasn't paying attention to the airport coding.

Ehh
Flight out time needed fits better with southwest and it's a $49 flight.
Flight back with SW has no direct flights and not good times.
United direct flight back at exact time needed.
Yeah going to both airports may be a pain but I get direct flights at the exact time I need.. and it's about $250 cheaper this way
I used to do hidden city flights when I was younger. It actually worked pretty well. Book one way on one airline from DFW -> wherever and just happen to miss my connection in Chicago and then book one way from ORD -> wherever and just happen to miss my connection at DFW. Pretty handy as long as you can travel with a carry-on only.Ragoo said:
Weirdest flight ive done is a Wednesday night one-way to DFW then Round trip from DFW to Vegas Thursday AM where the return trip went back through IAH. So I just went to my truck instead of making the connect back to DFW.
It was IAH and Hobby. And it was probably 30 years ago when I took it.blindey said:That was the Continental shuttle from IAH to Ellington, not Hobby.Milwaukees Best Light said:

i believe there was a flight from ellington to IAH in the mid 90sblindey said:
Where'd I get the Ellington nonsense from.
Oh well, if it was 30 years ago, I guess I can claim maximum oldness too.

Yep, there was both....we had folks at the company I worked at who lived in Clear Lake and they made use of the Ellington flight quite often....blindey said:

Our old safety guy who traveled all the time lived right by Ellington and would connect up to IAH for all his flights. I"m pretty certain they used to give you a segment and the old 500 mile minimum with Continental back in the day which was real win for getting status. This was late 90s in to 00's.BohunkAg said:Yep, there was both....we had folks at the company I worked at who lived in Clear Lake and they made use of the Ellington flight quite often....blindey said:
