For those flying in:

Hobby Airport is closer to Freeport, than Bush Intercontinental and usually cheaper, if you can fly Southwest.

Try to get a flight that will get you to Houston around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. That gives you more than enough time to get to the dock. If you get here too early, there really isn't much to do without renting a car, and they won't let you on the boat early.

There is a hotel and resturant close to the dock. That is an option rather than getting a hotel at the airport. You can stay at the hotel in Freeport when you return and get up the next morning and head for the airport, if you get a late morning flight or early afternoon flight out.


Sandy is right...it was fun staying at the airport hotels and doing our awesome Happy Hour with several SD members who could not make the trip! :P

Plus the airport hotels have free shuttles so since most people did not rent cars....all the rides came from the generosity of our members...it worked out really well! :banghead:

Okay, I'm a glutton for punishment, but hopefully there'll be less current this time--besides, Bubski needs somebody to keep him in line.

I'm a self-sufficient (have lead--will travel) Nitrox certified semi-sober driver from Dallas who hates hurling and digs diving. This past FG trip I hurled for the first time EVER on a boat in the ocean, and that ain't gonna happen again--that being said, hopefully next year will be an El Nino year and the Gulf will be calmer with a slower current...

Check's in the mail, K.
I'm growing older but not up,
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck.
Let those winds of time blow over my head,
I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead.

Excellent!! You're on the list. :welcome:

It probably won't be as rough next time, but still start taking those motion sickness pills a day or two before the trip. Even when the water is calm, someone always gets sick on this trip. Prevention is the key.

Hooya - Sara_the_brown is on for this too.

Does she need to declare herself, or will my check suffice?
