C to E connection without taking train?
We are travelling YYC-IAH-SAT next week & it appears the Calgary flights usually arrive at C30 or near there, and a lot of the flights to SAT depart from E. Looking at the terminal map, it appears that if arriving at gates on that side of terminal C (opposite side from train inside security) that there is a walk-thru connection inside security that takes you into that side of terminal E ? We have a 50 min connection so we could take train if need be. Just wondering if we can avoid it .

50 minutes is plenty to walk if incoming aircraft is on time or only a few minutes late.
The signs are very clear, and if you are *G may even have time for a quick drink at United Club (did it just last week, though I had a slightly longer connection time).

Flying SAN - IAH - YYZ... Do I Have To Go Through Security Twice At IAH?
Hey all,
I had to make a last minute change on a flight from SAN to YYZ with a one hour layover at IAH in between.
I am concerned about a couple of things:
- I am not used to the IAH airport. Because the second leg of trip is from IAH to YYZ, will it be different terminals?
- I will go through security once at SAN. When I get to IAH, will I have to go through it again or can I just go to the gate?
Thank you.

Terminals C, D, & E (where most UA operations are located) are interconnected by walkways. All terminals (A through E), including the ones interconnected by walkway, are interconnected by a train inside of security.
Here is a helpful may of the passenger terminals:

Welcome to FlyerTalk! Your post was moved because airport-specific queries are usually discussed in the destination forums. Hopefully you will get better feedback here in the dedicated Texas forum.
Good luck, and safe travels!

The above answer is correct. One hour is fine, though they will verify that you have proper documents to enter Canada @:-)
If return is also via IAH, once again no need to go through security twice, as you would clear both security and Immigration at YYZ

Logistics arriving International IAH
Hope this is the right thread...
My mother & I arrive IAH from MUC and we are parting ways in Houston. Mom continues on to ORD 2 hours from arrival, I have an overnight in Houston & a flight the next morning to my small, Colorado regional airport.
Logistically is it possible after immigration in Houston for me to accompany my mom to her gate before collecting my luggage and heading to my hotel? We are both unfamiliar with IAH and I want to make sure she gets to her gate without issues.
Thanks for the help!

1. Once you left customs it would be very difficult to get back to intl arrival baggage claims. So going back for you bags will not work.
2. You will not have a boarding pass to get through TSA security to head to the gates.

Suggest she just clears TSA right at E - her flight is almost certain to fly from E or C terminal, and those two are connected.
And yes, LH arrives in International Terminal D, but you are spat out in E after customs.
Sadly, above advice is correct, you cannot go back to get your luggage later.

SIN-IAH-ORD
Hi,
Need advise on transfer from International to Domestic flight. Will be flying in from SIN to IAH (Terminal E) on SQ F. Expected arrival time at IAH is 2:05pm.
In the midst of planning to purchase a separate ticket on UA for IAH-ORD. UA has the following flights out to ORD at 3:35pm, 4:54pm, 5:35pm and 7pm. Which one should I book to be safe so I won't miss the connecting flight? I'm gonna travel with 1 x hand carry with no checked in.
Where can I go collect my boarding pass for UA in this case?
Thanks in advance

I recommend 4:54 flight.
You can pick up your boarding pass at UA checkin desk. You should be able to use one of the automatic machines and not have to stand in line.

Thanks Emailkid. Btw, any idea I will be able to access any of the *A lounge with my F ticket from SQ while waiting for my next UA flight?
