Airport arrival planning

- • Avoid placing a long day trip immediately after an international arrival.
- • Partner airport transfer options will be added only when local Bókun suppliers are onboarded.
Hotel to stadium transfer
- • Treat NRG Stadium as the anchor of the day, not a quick stop between tours.
- • Arrive earlier on match days and keep buffer time for crowds, security, and post-match exits.
- • Private transfers can reduce planning stress when hotel zones and stadium zones are far apart.
Best areas to stay
- • Downtown for city access
- • Medical Center or NRG area for stadium priority
