Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area
Houston airport is a large and busy place that is open 24 hours a day, so you will be able to stay overnight if you have an early morning flight or if your flight is cancelled. Note that you will only be able to stay if you have a ticket for the next day, and you will not be able to enter the site if the doors have already closed. There are announcements and music throughout the night, so earplugs or headphones are recommended.
Where to rest: Most of the seats inside the terminals have armrests, so your best bet is to bring a sleeping bag and lie down on the floor. In Terminal D, you will find a chapel that is quiet at night and comfortable chairs in the Departures Hall, while in the Departures area of Terminal E, there are carpeted floors and some of the food outlets have comfortable chairs. There are also several VIP lounges inside the main buildings for those passengers who qualify, but these are closed at night. Finally, there is a hotel within the airport grounds and private cabins in Terminal C.
Baggage: There are no lockers or luggage storage facilities on the premises.
Eating and drinking: The only options available during the night are vending machines.
Restrooms: Showers inside the Centurion Lounge, in Terminal D.
Wi-Fi: Access is free and unlimited.
Other services available around the clock: ATMs, retail outlets, chapels, baby changing facilities.
