Katy Airport Car Service to IAH and Hobby
Katy is on the far west side of the Houston area, which means both airports are a real drive from here. Greg's Blackline provides luxury SUV service from Cinco Ranch, downtown Katy and nearby neighborhoods to IAH and Hobby, with flight tracking and on-time pickup.

IAH or Hobby from Katy: neither is close
From Katy, neither airport is a quick trip, so the choice usually comes down to your airline, fare and flight time. IAH is to the north, and Hobby is to the southeast.
We run both. The difference is mainly which side of the city you cross, and your driver watches I-10 conditions so you reach the terminal with time to spare.
| From Katy | Typical drive time |
|---|---|
| To George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) | typically 55 to 90 minutes |
| To William P. Hobby (HOU) | typically 60 to 100 minutes |
Drive times depend on traffic, weather and time of day. Your driver watches conditions and adjusts the route.
Routes out of Katy
- I-10 (the Katy Freeway) is the main road east into the city, and its managed lanes can be an option depending on conditions.
- For IAH, a common path is I-10 east to Beltway 8 north, or the Grand Parkway north and east to reach the north side.
- For Hobby, the route follows I-10 east toward the 610 loop and then south and east to the Gulf Freeway side, or Beltway 8 south and east, depending on traffic.
- We choose the final route at pickup based on live conditions.

Katy pickup context
Katy covers a lot of ground, so tell us which part of town you are leaving from.
- Cinco Ranch, a large community with several gated sections near the Grand Parkway.
- Historic downtown Katy, where we can arrange a clear spot near the main streets.
- Katy Mills and the Grand Parkway area, a busy retail corridor with easy highway access.
For more about service in town, see our Katy car service page.
When to leave Katy
- Early morning: for a 6:00 a.m. domestic departure, we typically suggest a pickup around 3:15 to 3:45 a.m.
- Weekday commute: eastbound I-10 typically slows heavily from roughly 6:00 to 9:00 a.m., so a mid-morning flight can still need an early start.
- Coming home: westbound I-10 typically builds from the late afternoon into the evening, which can lengthen the ride back from an airport landing.
- Leave earlier for either airport on weekday mornings and Friday afternoons.
These are planning guidelines, not guarantees. Call or text (281) 500-8616 and we will help you set the pickup time for your flight.
