So it looks like we are taking the bus line from IAH to NRG. It takes an hour and a half.
Anyone local know if the bus line is safe?
I do not want to rent a car and Uber is really expensive.

I don't have the exact figures in front of me but since 1969 something like 97% of their shows have sold out.
I was at one of the two not-sold-out shows in 1994. 8 shows, for certain, in 2006 didn't sell out. That's probably it.
50 & COUNTING sold out.
14 ON FIRE sold out.
ZIP CODE sold out.
América Latina Olé tour sold out.
Their 4 year long NO FILTER tour sold out.
SIXTY sold out.
That's 2013-2023. It's extremely unlikely they are concerned or worry about such a thing or ever have.

Actually the goal these days is not to sell it out. The goal is to set the prices just as expensive that every show is an almost sell out.
There have been various articles in the past describing that practice.

I've been to that area a few times. The Astrodome is across the way. There's parking just about anywhere for miles. Parking should be fine seeing that NRG holds 72,000 people, there might be 45,000 that show up for the Stones.
Whatever, because of the stage.
This show will be the best (and only good) thing to happen in Houston for 2024.

IMPORTANT BUSH/IAH Airport note to save loads of time and stress - if your flight is C/D/E terminals - use terminal B for drop off and pickup.
Super important note for all:
If you are scheduled for Terminal C/D/E - which is United and all international flights - the new monnster international terminal construction is requiring a long term closer of several crucial lanes to and from those terminals and it can be a nightmare of very long wait in traffic especially at busy times - don't risk it. And a very large and frustrated crowd in the terminals.
The trick is to use Terminal B for dropoff and pickup. And then call your uber, or get on car rental shuttle etc. Use the monorail (inside security) or the underground toy train (outside security) to get over to the other terminals. International travelers - every terminal has separate door/area with official taxis with a flat rate by zone - no app needed. Not cheap but about same as Uber & Lyft $55 to downtown, $70 to NRG area - approx
I live here and I have all visitors do this and I do this for all business and personal travel all the time for last year or 2 and plan to for all five years of construction. You can check google maps traffic right next to terminal when you land if you are skeptical but many times of day it is gridlock.
More info below:
Arriving - if you have carryon take inside security monorail to Terminal B which is smaller and often very quiet - then call Uber or get on rental car shuttle from that terminal.
Luggage - get your luggage and ride underground train to B. Reverse the process when leaving - even more important to not stress about your flights.
You can check in for United for any flight including international flights in Terminal B and go through security there. Other airlines you will need to take elevator down and use the toy train to get to your terminal. [www.fly2houston.com]
Terminals A & B use a completely different road so no crazy traffic challenge and are much less crazy busy terminals. All are connected via train and monorail.
