Galveston - which airport?
I tried to look up flights to Galveston, TX on Kayak and Expedia, both "Galveston" and GLS give me a blank stare Is flying to Houston the only way to get to Galveston?

Hobby.
Bush is about 2x the time from Galveston compared to Hobby.
Any airport Galveston has is not for commercial traffic, just private flights.
P.S. - IAD is Dulles, IAH is George Bush Houston Intercontinental.

I was confused with the times on Google, from HOU about 1.5 hrs, from IAH it showed over 3 hrs. OK, so it's one of the Houston's airports.
Janis, no, not a cruise. Was looking for something warm in January, still looking.

Road construction lately has made it longer, but 1.5 hours driving time is too long now unless you are in rush hour traffic.
Russ apparently had a bad time in Galveston and always bashes it, but it is a nice Texas coastal island. If you like Space stuff, the Johnson Space Center is on the way from HOU to Galveston and is well worth a few hours visit.
We rent a beach house every summer and have all the kids and grandkids stay with us for a week or so.
