Distance and time IAH–BWI
Great-circle distance IAH–BWI is about 1,234 miles. Block time on a nonstop is typically near 3 hours; wind, routing, and which runway you use still move the clock. Connections on the same city pair add layover time on top of that flying.
Baltimore is about 1 hour ahead of Houston on standard time (America/Chicago vs America/New_York). Arrival clocks on BWI are local. That matters more on this pair than on a same-zone hop.
When IAH–BWI has a nonstop, that is usually the cleanest product. One-stop options still appear — they are worth opening only if the USD total is materially lower after you count the extra ground time.
Airports for Houston to Baltimore
Both ends are in the United States: George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) to Baltimore/Washington International (BWI). This is not an international itinerary, so the usual domestic bag and ID rules apply at the seller. Alternate metro airports can still beat this pair on price.
IAH is the only origin code we list in this metro. On arrival, DCA (Washington), IAD (Washington) can price differently from BWI. A cheaper nearby airport only wins if the transfer still fits your plan. Search with “include nearby airports” when you want those codes in one results list.
