5 things you didn't know about George Bush Intercontinental

Verified by the CompareFlights team
  1. 1IAH handles more flights to Mexico than any other US airport — Continental Airlines (now United) built the network specifically as a 'gateway to Latin America' alternative to Miami's AA hub.
  2. 2The airport was renamed for George H.W. Bush (the elder Bush) in 1997 — Houston was his hometown and his presidential library is located on the Texas A&M campus 100 miles away.
  3. 3IAH's Skytrain (the Inter-Terminal Train) runs entirely underground — one of the few US airport people movers built below grade rather than elevated, due to the area's hurricane risk.
  4. 4United Airlines operates the largest aircraft maintenance hangar in the United States at IAH — large enough to accommodate two Boeing 777s side by side with room to walk around them.
  5. 5Terminal D was specifically designed for two-decker A380 aircraft when built in 2003 — the gates have double-jet-bridge configurations even though no airline has ever flown an A380 to IAH commercially.
