I have a conference that lets out at 12:15pm on a Wednesday near the Brookhollow Sheraton...my flight from IAH is at 1:25pm. If I have a taxi waiting for me - will I make it? No checked luggage and will have ticket printed and ready to go. Is this possible?

You will make it but the airlines require you to check in 45 to an hour prior...they may give your seat away

If the OP has a ticket already printed, I think they are checked in.

You should be fine. I do a similar commute daily and it takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on traffic. If there is an accident, there are alternate routes too.

As I look at my math...I actually only have 1 hour and 10 to 15 minutes....I think I'll still give it a shot.

Good luck with that and hope they don't do a cavity search.

Security lines usually aren't that bad at IAH.

It's going to be close. Make sure your cab driver takes the hardy toll road. Not 45, not even 59. Pay the toll- it will be worth it.
