When I was looking for the transfers, I noticed that my price for a transfer to HOU - not IAH - was the price you're showing here. Maybe they raised the prices after I booked? I would strongly advise against taking the transfer from Hobby airport, since there are so few flights arriving, they wait up to 2 hours to fill a bus halfway. An Uber or Lyft will be about $50 for two people, and you won't have to wait for a bus to fill, or load/unload. When I finally arrived at the port, a port rep came onto the bus and said the porters expect at least $5/bag or something like that, which felt like a shakedown. The same goes on the outgoing end--I did walk-off and got on a shuttle before 7:30, while none of the transfer buses had filled to either airport. There are several local companies who will get you there quicker, for cheaper, with things like senior/military discounts and r/t discounts. I think I used Island Express, but there are others. There are several articles comparing the cost of various kinds of transportation, and none of them recommend a ship transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
