    OUR STOREY | HOUSTON AIRPORT SYSTEM

    The Houston Airport System provides a safe and dynamic air services network that fosters economic vitality for the transportation industry and facilitates a strong level of global connectivity for a diverse and growing population living throughout the greater Houston region.

    OUR MISSION

    We exist to connect the people, businesses, cultures and economies of the world to Houston.

    OUR VISION

    Establish the Houston Airport System as a five-star global air service gateway where the magic of flight is celebrated.

    OUR HISTORY  

    In 1937, as Houston began its ascent to become the energy capital of the world, the city acquired the site of its first major commercial airport, William P. Hobby Airport.

    As the City of Houston continued to grow so did the Houston Airport System, adding George Bush Intercontinental Airport in 1969 and Ellington Airport in 1984.  Today, George Bush Intercontinental Airport serves as the premier long-haul international airport facility, while Ellington Airport supports both general aviation flights as well as a host of government/military operations. Hobby Airport opened an international concourse and welcomed back international service in October 2015, serving destinations in Latin American and the Caribbean.
