Private jet charter, Houston.
Hobby is the close-in field the energy corridor actually uses — a fraction of Intercontinental's taxi time, minutes more drive. The mission profile skews long: both coasts, Mexico, and the mountain resorts, which keeps super-mid availability unusually deep for a non-coastal market.

Which airport do Houston charters use?
Hobby (KHOU) — primary charter field, ~11 mi to downtown Houston. Tell dispatch the actual address on each end; the field picks itself.
Hobby or Intercontinental for a Houston charter?
Hobby for nearly everything — closer to downtown and the medical center, faster ramps, none of IAH's airline sequencing. Intercontinental earns its place on international itineraries needing its customs and connection infrastructure.
