But Wait, There's More! (Because the Journey Matters Too)
Now, for those of you who like a little more detail (or maybe just enjoy staring out the airplane window), here's a breakdown of the factors that can affect flight time:
QuickTip: Stop scrolling, read carefully here.
- Departure Airport: Houston boasts two major airports: William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) and George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH). The distance between these airports and San Antonio International Airport (SAT) can vary slightly, leading to a minute or two difference in flight time.
- Flight Path: Just like on a road trip, there can be scenic routes and shortcuts. The specific path your plane takes can influence the flight duration.
- Plane Type: Let's be honest, a tiny puddle jumper will take longer than a sleek jet. But hey, if you're lucky enough to snag a window seat on a small plane, the views might just be worth the extra minutes.
The important takeaway? Don't sweat it. Regardless of these factors, you'll be in San Antonio before you know it.
