Lobby Closure
ADVISORY: United Airlines has reached a significant milestone in the redevelopment of Terminal B at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), aimed at enhancing passenger experience and capacity. As a result, the Terminal B lobby, where some passengers currently check in for their flights, pass through TSA security, and claim their baggage upon arrival, will temporarily close on January 21, 2025, and is expected to reopen in 2026.
Traffic Flow Change
ADVISORY: Beginning May 14, 2025, roadway access around Terminal B will shift due to scheduled utility work as part of the Terminal B Transformation Program. Anyone needing to access Terminal A will loop around the Marriott, travel down South Terminal Road, and then proceed back up to North Terminal Road. Access to the A/B Parking Garage will remain unchanged. United passengers parking in the A/B Parking Garage can continue using courtesy shuttles to reach Terminal C for check-in.
This temporary roadway change is necessary to allow the Terminal B Transformation team to begin underground utility work along North Terminal Road, which will support the new facility.
