Official Spotting Locations
Lee Road
Lee Rd south of Will Clayton Pkwy at the end of runway 27. You get some nice approach shots, although 26L and 26R are frequently used as well.
Other Spotting Locations
Parking Garages
You can see some good action from the top of the parking garages.
Terminal A/B - Great for spotting domestic carriers excluding Continental, also great for takeoffs from any runway except 9/27. Terminal A garage, level 7 is a favourite amongst the IAH Spotters Club.
Terminal C - See a ton of Continental aircraft here.
Terminal D/E - This is a fun terminal between 3:20 and 5:00 (PM) to see arriving heavies, and cargo, as well as departing heavies (Continental 777-200, Air France 777-300, British Airways 777-200, KLM 747-400). It offers a great place to see arrivals on 26L; beware severe Heat Distortion between March through September.
BAX Parking Facility
Just take a right pulling out of Lee Rd. Spotting area then head back towards the terminal, and take the first right. The BAX World Cargo Facility is clearly marked. NOTE park about halfway down as to not raise too much concern. Note that many people from the IAH Spotters Group have been hassled by Homeland Security, BAX Security, and HAS Security.
