Airfare ✈️
Airports
We recommend flying into either George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) or William P. Hobby Airport (HOU).
Friday Arrivals
Complimentary shuttles will run from both airports to the Summit venue every hour throughout the day.
- If you’re attending sessions such as the College Student Bootcamp, Innovation Challenge, or AI Skills Lab, we recommend booking a flight that lands before 11:00 AM CT on Friday to give you enough time to check in and settle before sessions begin.
Sunday Departures
Shuttles will run hourly back to both airports. For the smoothest experience, we recommend scheduling your return flights for 6:00 PM CT or later on Sunday as programming wraps up at 5:00 PM.
