Southwest Airlines has announced it will add more flights from New Orleans to Houston, already one of Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport s most popular destinations.
Starting in April, Southwest will start four daily nonstop flights each way from New Orleans to Houston s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH). Southwest already flies direct several times a day from New Orleans to Houston s smaller airport, William P. Hobby (HOU).
The flights to Bush Intercontinental expand the number of connections Southwest travelers from New Orleans can make. While Houston-Hobby is a Southwest hub, Houston-Bush has significantly more international connections, including long-haul routes on other carriers.
