With Winter Storm Enzo now out of Texas, local airline passengers will be able to leave the state tomorrow. The 2 Houston airports, Bush and Hobby are scheduled to reopen Wednesday morning at 9am.
Flight operations have been suspended at Houston's two major airports since last night due to snow and sleet, as a strong cold weather system moved through Southeast Texas.
Houston Airport System Director of Aviation Jim Szczesniak said Sunday evening that travelers with existing travel plans will need to contact the airline from which tickets were purchased to find out about re-booking.
He added that travelers will need to refrain from driving to the airport during the flight suspension period.
"We've coordinated with our airline partners and for Tuesday the airport will be closed.
"The airlines have implemented their travel waiver programs, so you do have the ability to go to your airline and change your flights without change fees, so be sure to go to your airline to find out about that."
A reopening decision was made today, with both airports set to reopen tomorrow morning at 9am.
