KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Houston George Bush Intcntl Airport to Dubai

  • Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) is a hub for United Airlines. Therefore, when flying out of this airport, consider booking your flight with them as they offer more flight options than any other airline.
  • Dubai International Airport (DXB) is relatively busier than Sharjah International Airport (SHJ). Since SHJ is about 17 miles from Dubai, you can book flights that land at Sharjah Airport to avoid the long queues and intense passenger traffic at DXB.
  • When booking connecting flights, please be sure to confirm whether it is an automatic transfer flight or a self-transfer flight. If possible, go for the automatic transfer flight as it is the more convenient option. A self-transfer flight will require you to check yourself and your bags for every flight.
  • If you plan to leave your car at the IAH airport parking, opt for the long-term off-site parking lots instead of the garages inside the airport. They usually charge lower prices, and you get a free airport shuttle.
  • If you’re looking for specific infight services such as Wi-Fi or entertainment, confirm that they are offered on the flight before booking. Different flights will often offer different services even when serviced by the same airline.

Boarding in New York was smooth and well organized. However, the boarding process in Dubai was less convenient. Passengers were asked to board an hour before departure, but after that we had to wait in another area that did not have enough seating capacity. To make matters worse, the flight was officially delayed by an hour, followed by an additional 45-minute delay while on the aircraft. The food was excellent and exceeded expectations. Seating comfort was decent for Economy Class, and considering the fare category, I have no major complaints. The entertainment system was outstanding. Being able to watch a FIFA match live during the flight was a completely new and enjoyable experience for me, making the journey much more engaging.

The flight was literally cancelled by emirates and you sent me to a scammer website of Underpricer.com for the tickets who still has not provided a refund for one ticket. Kayak has gone seriously downhill. If you are going to redirect people to a site then ensure they are reputable and not untrustworthy scammers. Am never using kayak again after this experience. And update your algorithm or whatever so you don’t send out auto emails checking on flight experience of cancelled flights due a literal WAR!! also I have complained about underpricer and nothing from kayak. So disappointing

Difficult to find some food option for gluten and dairy allergy. May be a fruit salad would be better

Very good from the beginning to the end. Amazing experience

Fly Dubai takes low cost and thrift to new depths in terms of service levels, terminal 2 is grossly inadequate for capacity and resembles a crowded buss or railway station,, the fly dubai( Emirates) flight is never on time(was 2.5 hrs delayed), and this is not an isolated experience, the flght air conditioning was turned low while we waited on the tarmac for take clearance to save fuel, should say more!!!! The depths! I only fly this airline from a compulsion, emirates code shares for connections to Muscat

I lost my lock from my luggage, I don’t know someone took something from my bag.

Very good ..nice comfort..crew service was good..and no delays in time ..they always on time..

Food was not great. Crew members were created hassle with attitude at the gates and wasted my valuable time. I have been traveling in Emirates airlines many times. Over all not happy flying in Emirates airlines this time. Seats are very small and not comfortable. Seats looks like very very old and congested. It would be nice if they fix these kind of issues. I hope my next trip will be hassle free and comfortable journey in Emirates airlines. Thank you.

Everything was perfect... especially air hostess were excellent in attending people.

The non-veg food was horrible,esp chicken. Flight got 2 hrs delayed in Dallas,Texas.I missed my connection flight&waited 8 hrs.I got really sick& hospitalized soon after I landed.I traveled with someone who have sciatica nerve problem.Wanted to lay down in the empty reserved seats in while the flight was in air,the crew chased us out of the empty seats. Until the flight landed those seats was useless for anyone.
