Going to be flying into Houston in a couple weeks, potential flight gets in at midnight. Anyone have experience getting a ride from IAH to a Houston adjacent area, like Baytown that late at night?

Might check with a traditional car service on that deal. You'll have a dedicated driver that would be happy to get a scheduled run like that to close out the shift/

That isn't a terrible drive anymore, with the beltway and 99. Uber will do it. If all else fails, there are still taxis. Or, are you trying to save a dollar or two?
Wouldn't mind a couple bucks here or there, but I am a cheapskate.Milwaukees Best Light said:

Username does not check out.
with all the construction issues at IAH - my experience has been uber waits are very long. especially from terminal c. you may want to catch the ride at a or b.
there is an app called Wingz very much like uber but they only pick up and take to the airports. I have used them for years. You won't have to stress about finding a ride that late at night because they will monitor your flight and text you when you land about where they are and where they will pick you up.
anyone use Alto to schedule to/from airport? We have a long vacation and August and I was thinking of using these guys.
I've used Alto for a little over a year - full time drivers (not paid by the mile) and super clean SUVs. Price comparable to Uber Black. I always use Alto when it's my wife or her and her friends going somewhere alone. Very safe service.
thanks for feedback...

Unless it comes to your big ass jacked up 3500 truck with big steel bumper, smoke stacks, and neon lights underneath
Amirite?
Horrible advice!! Do not try to do this from terminal A. Just last week I landed at around 11pm into terminal C which was pretty dead.sushi94 said:

Terminal A on the other hand had a line about 1/2 mile long of cars waiting to get in to pick passengers up.

OP, you will be fine. There will be plenty of Ubers at that time. However, there might be a surge and it'll cost you a pretty penny.
There are some motorcyclists that can get you there in a matter of minutes.

Spirit flies to A. All you need to know.
It's always about $20 more than a Uber comfort. Just well worth it for the peace of mind.
Thanks for the info. Going to try it out for our upcoming trip.
