I’ve a stack of avios so BHD - LHR - IAH with BA, 12 hours in total from NI to Texas, not bad at all. Flights obviously not available yet so hopefully I’ll even have enough for Business by when the time comes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galveston Express is $30 pp and easy to schedule and highly reliable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted February 10 #2003 Share Posted February 10 8 hours ago, jturks7 said: Really? What’s with the bad timing? I can fly from UK to Houston direct and it’s only 1 hour drive from airport to Galveston We flew to IAH last year, stayed at airport hotel then picked up car and it was easy drive down to Galveston stopping at NASA en route. Galveston is a lovely town with some great restaurants. If you have a few days take the car over on the free ferry to Bolivar to drive on the beach! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrateslife4me84 Posted February 11 #2004 Share Posted February 11 Are the 2025 Indy Fjords sailings likely what we will see in 2026? It looks like they’ve already removed the ports they can’t visit in 2026. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your cruise left on a Sunday (as most do from Galveston) where did you drop off the car? All the car rental companies in Galveston seem to be closed on Sundays.

That's the same as flying into Orlando and cruising out PC yet I never hear people make that same complaint. In Italy it is over 2 hrs to get from Venice Airport to Ravenna Cruise Port and Rome Airport to Civitavecchia Port is around 1 hour ✈️🚌🛳 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me I'd fly into hobby which I've made in about 30 minutes depends on traffic. Dave says 45 minutes. I guess I have a lead foot, never took me that long. You are not going to fly from UK to Hobby very easily. Edited February 11 by c-leg5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyrateslife4me84 Posted February 11 #2018 Share Posted February 11 Apparently everything really is bigger in Texas, including our feelings on cruising from there. There are plenty of embarkation ports that are an hour or more from the nearest airport. Heck, in Europe, some of the ports of call are an hour or more from the city listed on the itinerary! ”I’m cruising to Paris this summer!”… 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as easily as IAH, but Delta and American serve Hobby. That said, the price difference probably isn't worth the time saved driving to the port.
