IAH opened an ablution room and a prayer room in Terminal D, seems to be located by the A380 gates. The current interfaith chapel gets quite full during the early evening.
Worst passenger experience at IAH is the Terminal E international arrivals bus stand set up.

I’d like to see IAH-GIG go up to 10x weekly as well.
How would VS do if they moved their flight to IAH?
Jump to postHe certainly did a fantastic job at QR. I loved how he always tried to improve QR's economy class versus create a premium economy cabin. With the new CEO coming onboard it will be interesting to see how QR will change.
Jump to postI wonder if D9 and D12 will remain as A380 gates, or if the full renovation will have proper A380 gates instead of the current retrofits. LH is questionable (something tells me they may divide and conquer with their own MUC-IAH flight if there is no ZRH-IAH flight on anyone) but EK will probably be...

Former Pakistani PM Imran Khan flew commercial from Pakistan to the US on Saudia. Even the current President flew commercial domestically and on international flights.
Jump to postBA and VS are no longer flying to Pakistan? Is this because of safety concerns? I wonder if airblue and airsial would suffice and suddenly grow should PIA disappear. PIA suffers the same type of mismanagement and political interference as AI, but Pakistan doesn't have the economic growth and newer ...
Jump to postSurprised if they choose DFW over IAH, I know DFW has more of a India population than Houston, but Houston has the Star Alliance connections that Air India can use. I can see Indians using this service with pride, the Indian economy is really taking off.
Jump to postI've been traveling frequently several times a year to South Asia past several years. Sometimes in business or in economy. While economy can be tiring in such long journey. For me time is essence, so if a reliable non stop direct flight available, I would prefer that. Apparently Air India is going i...
Jump to postIAD being a Star Hub makes the most sense, however BOS and DFW could most likely support BR as well with the O/D This is correct; I'm honestly surprised BR doesn't serve IAD already. BR would likely cease IAH service should the choose DFW. Can’t see the Texas market having that much demand on servi...
Jump to postOff topic UA recently also served Cancun from Austin and MSY. Delta served many cities that weren't their hubs to LHR or AMS/CDG due to their ties with VS, KL, and AF. This was like a joint venture. Be nice to see UA serve Italy from IAH.
Jump to postIAH does a killing despite it's odd timing, BR has a charter bus from DFW to IAH as well. I can see all destinations doing well.
Jump to postPakistan is on the verge of becoming a failed state.

Jump to postThere are some routes that got suspended due to the pandemic and haven't come back. Off the top of my head there's AUH/DOH, DUR, CHS, MRU, SEZ, MCO, YYC and some Windies routes (ANA, BGI, UVF). Do you think BA will return to these routes in the future or let VS/EY/QR and the like cover those market...
Jump to postIt seems like the Widebody plans will park at the end of the gates just like in Terminal E and gates closer to the center of the airport will be for narrow body. I wonder if they can park a widebody closer to the airport, though this might not allow narrow bodies to park at the gates next to it, and...

Jump to postGulf Air indicated it may start flights to IAH or JFK - I would assume JFK? I know IAH has oil but I cannot imagine there's so much oil traffic whereas JFK has tourism on both ends (minimal on JFK side), tons of international traffic and the "glamor" factor- thoughts? https://onemileatati...
Jump to postWould be nice to see IAH to BCN on UA, I would assume lot of connection traffic would come from Mexico/Latina/South America as well.
Jump to postReally…why? It will be the usual roster, JFK, IAD,MIA,LAX,SFO and maybe ORD (hopefully BOS might make the list), markets that have little difficulty filling big planes. You do know that LH flew the 380 to IAH for years right? IAH has ZERO problem filling big planes. LH already flies the 747-800 her...

Good luck to RJ at DTW. RJ will face tough time, due to TK marketing and far much more superior product. I wonder how will RJ respond? Anyone know the yields and load factors for RJ?
