Peak Season:
The ideal times to take a flight to Houston are early spring and fall. In October and at least early November, the weather is often still warm enough for summer clothes, but the humidity is gone.
Off Season:
Most visitors prefer to avoid the hot, humid summer from June until September. Travelers on a budget are sure to find airline tickets to Houston during the summer months. Book your hotel accommodations at the same time as your Houston flight – cheap hotels in Houston book up fast during the off-season.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Houston, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, July is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 84.2 F. Travelers looking to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 53.6 F).
Start planning your Houston trip about one to four months in advance. That’s when you’ll find the best rates on flights to the city. Early spring and late fall are popular times to travel to Houston, since the temperature and humidity are significantly lower. Looking early during those peak travel times gets you the best deals. You’ll find lower rates in the hot, humid summer months, but you may find the weather uncomfortable during that cheaper time. Winter is another off-peak time when you can find affordable flights. The city does occasionally get snow, so watch the weather forecast if you plan to travel in December or January.

The city of Houston might very well be the reason for the catch phrase, “Everything’s bigger in Texas.” Houston is home to the U.S. energy headquarters, and it is the largest city in Texas and the fourth largest city in America. It is home to the fourth largest multi-airport system in the U.S., has the nation’s third largest fleet of taxis and, of course, is home to NASA – the world’s leading space and aeronautics research center. Do you need another reason to book cheap flights to Houston?
Visitors booking trips to Houston will no doubt be entertained. Whether it’s golfing, sports, business or education, Houston has it all. Prepare to rally if your Houston flight falls during baseball season. Houston is big sports town – after all, it is the site of the Houston Astrodome, home to MLB Houston Astros, and the country’s first retractable-roof stadium, Reliant Park. Hop a flight to Houston to visit The Museum of Fine Arts, the sixth largest museum in the country, and the Houston Museum of Natural Science. If you’re flying to Houston for business, make sure to set aside some time for a quick game of golf at one of Houston’s 165 golf courses.
NASA, the rodeo, museums, the Astrodome, elegant restaurants and barbecue spots — Houston has plenty to offer, and Houstonians are among the world’s friendliest people. Never hesitate to ask for directions or information; this town, for all its sophistication, still shows the spirit of the frontier days when the pioneers all pitched in to lend a helping hand.
Houston is also very attractive, livable, and fun. There are many parks and smaller green spaces and many unusual public sculptures and fountains. Usually, the first thing visitors notice when they step off their flight to Houston is the in-your-face architecture with no end to the odd juxtaposition of elegant and mundane, functional and whimsical. Buildings show a decided degree of originality: the name of Texas Children’s Hospital is spelled out on its sloping lawn in brightly colored letters and a Mayan pyramid tops a skyscraper.

As long as you’re spending most of your Houston time downtown, you won’t need to rent a car. Houston’s downtown and museum district are small and compact, and many hotels have shuttles to help you get around. The city’s public transportation system is very good. The Metro has both bus and light rail services. If you do decide to venture out, you’ll want to rent a car. Finding your way around shouldn’t be too difficult. The city is smartly laid out, streets are clearly marked and the roads are well kept. The only trouble you’ll have is with traffic. Houston drivers are notoriously ruthless and fast, and you’ll want to stay off the road during rush hour.

Give yourself plenty of time to reach George Bush International Airport, which is 22 miles north of downtown. Houston METRO buses service the airport for easy access without driving. The airport has five terminals, so you need plenty of time to clear security and get to your gate. Take the above-ground Skyway or underground Subway to move from one terminal to another if needed.
