As the fourth most-populated city in America, Houston is known as being a city of business. Many oil companies and other corporations are headquartered there and so, it is not usually a place associated with leisurely travel or vacations. However, Houston is not just a flat plain barren of any foliage. Instead, it lies along a greenbelt and is surrounded by preserved marshes. For these reasons, Houston is gaining popularity as a place for fun, making George Bush Intercontinental Airport a gateway to excitement.

Like the city it serves, its level of excellence is unmatched–George Bush Intercontinental Airport was rated #1 for on-time performance by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) through September 2007.
