The direct answer

Four Greater Houston airports.
Four distinct ground-transportation rules.

Opus Chauffeur coordinates prearranged black car, Executive SUV, and Sprinter transfers across all four Houston gateways—matching each arrival or departure to the operating terminal, Houston Airports badged-driver procedure, or corporate aviation FBO.

George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) publishes different limousine meeting instructions across Terminals A, C, and E (with Terminal D international arrivals clearing into Terminal E near Door 103 and Terminal E limousine vehicles staged via Terminal C limousine parking during terminal redevelopment). William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) directs prearranged limousine and sedan passengers to meet their badged driver inside Baggage Claim on the Arrivals Level. At Ellington Airport (EFD) and Sugar Land Regional (SGR), pickups are coordinated directly by tail number and confirmed FBO.

Houston airport answers

Houston airport chauffeur questions
Comparing IAH, Hobby, Ellington, and Sugar Land pickup rules

01How far is Houston Hobby Airport from IAH, and which airport is closer to The Woodlands vs. Galveston?

George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) and William P. Hobby (HOU) sit roughly 31 to 35 miles apart via I-45 and I-69 or Beltway 8. IAH is much closer to The Woodlands and Spring (roughly 20–25 miles north via I-45 or the Hardy Toll Road), whereas Hobby (HOU) and Ellington (EFD) are on the southeast side of Houston, roughly 35–42 miles north of Galveston Island.

02How do limousine pickups work at IAH Terminals A, C, and E?

Houston Airports requires prearranged badged limousine drivers and publishes specific meeting areas for Terminals A, C, and E (near Door 103). Because Terminal D international arrivals exit through Terminal E—and Terminal E redevelopment routes limousine vehicles to Terminal C limousine parking—always follow your written terminal instruction.

03Where does my chauffeur meet me at Houston Hobby Airport (HOU)?

At William P. Hobby Airport, prearranged limousine and black car passengers meet their badged chauffeur inside Baggage Claim on the Arrivals Level—providing a direct door-to-door alternative to a shared Hobby airport shuttle.

04Do you serve GlobalSelect at Sugar Land (SGR) and Signature at Ellington (EFD)?

Yes. Provide your aircraft tail number, flight department contact, and estimated arrival time so we can coordinate directly with GlobalSelect at SGR (full-service hours 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.) or Signature Aviation at EFD.
