UK citizen flying to BIS via DFW.
If I buy a bottle of spirits in London, keep it in my hand luggage (sealed), can I keep it with me transiting DFW Int - Dom?
I have GE and TSA Pre (if that matters).

Hello,
Solo traveler leaving on BA 194 (1535 departure) in F on a Sunday at the end of April. I will have carry-on only, am Pre and CLEAR. Priority Pass, and Centurion access. Goal is to shower at Centurion before my flight.
Returning on BA 197 (scheduled 1900 arrival) on a Thursday in mid-May. Traveling companion will have a checked bag. We are both GE.
We've departed and arrived from E before (although IAH is not our home airport, so I'm not current on whatever state it is in). We have also met our ride at the Marriott when doing so; we are comfortable walking/subway from E to other termi ..read more

I am interviewing for a job at DFW airport and I don't currently live in Texas. Where would be the best neighborhoods to consider to move for a family with a teenager in high school? Is Arlington a good choice? I'd like to have a 30-minute or shorter commute to work. I'll be buying a house, and can spend up to $800K. But given the high property tax in Texas, I'd like to keep it around $600K-$700K for a house that is 3,500 sq. ft or less, with 3 bedrooms, at least 2-1/2 baths. Thanks in advance ..read more

I am flying out of terminal A at Bush (IAH) at around noon, and need a place to make calls after TSA. I have bluetooth hearing aids, which I link to my cell to make calls the. It needs to be pretty remote from folks and relatively quiet. (FYI when I use the hearing aids to make calls, the pickup microphone is on the hearing aids, complicating making calls around others.) I do not have a membership to a lounge.
Thanks for any and all suggestions ..read more

So I just came though TSA pre at DFW D and on to my AA to LHR and the only time i needed a boarding pass was to access Flagship lounge.
Both security and at the gate all they asked for was my passport.
is there some backend magic now that ties up pre flight info provided to AA to my passport number?
Visions of being offloaded for ‘not being at the airport’ having not scanned a BP at security but seems there’s some magic going on ..read more

Morning all,
Flying on via BA on wednesday into IAH Terminal D. I have a gate arrival time of 13:40 and then a UA departure from E at 15:00. UA have a 45min bag drop policy so the question is where is the best/quickest place for me to drop my bags for the UA flight to Vegas? I was there last month and know you can't check in at E. Hoping on can pick up my bags then jump back in at D and drop them there??
I'm flying over First so will be off the plane quickly. What are the odds of dropping my bags in time?? I assume the 45mins by UA is pretty strict??
Any local help would be appreciated.

I'm aware that there is no rail link between the downtown core and IAH. Apparently, bus 102 will take me downtown. How long will that take? Where can I buy a Q card? I'm assuming I can buy and top-up with a credit card? Hopefully, I buy a Q card upon arrival at IAH.
Where are some good places to go for shopping? I'm reading the Galleria is a good shopping center and probably the best in Houston? Is it easily accessible by transit?
I know Houston is car country, but I have no intention of renting a car for a short 24-36 hour stay. Any other places accessible by transit?
Where would you guys ..read more

Hello fellows,
I am planning a trip for my parents this summer(probably 2nd week of July) to celebrate their marriage anniversary. They first met in Texas(Dallas) so I am planning a Texas trip. I have planned a motion tour for them as both of them are huge fans of traveling. But the issue is with the stops. I am not able to decide the tourist attractions and spots for them.
Any suggestions are welcomed(preferably Dallas though).
Thanks in advance ..read more
