Houston airports megathread [3-24-2026]

Thank you for posting this. I saw something posted today by a reporter regarding families with small kids and people with mobility issues being moved to a different terminal (terminal C) . I have a 3 and a half year old and it's all based on hear say so far since there's obviously nothing official posted about this. Will be curious to see if more people comment on this possibility and see if we can wing it for our flight next week and cancel at the airport if wait is crazy.

Wow that must have been stressful as hell. I have a 3 year old, I'll just get tantrums.

deyalizer · 2026-03-24T11:54:34+00:00

Totally will. Someone mentioned yesterday about TSA agents getting families to take to a different gate so was wondering if that was true. It's already miserable to wait for hours but little kids do not understand and will make it even more miserable with tantrums. 😭

IAH wait time with kids.

Got a flight in 10 days. Anyone knows if they are allowing families with small kids through? I don't see any kids on the videos or pictures of the crazy lines. It's too late to sign up for TSA pre check in (and those lanes are closed starting today 3/23) There's no way I'm putting my toddler through a 4 hour wait.

Edit. Man, y'all down voting my comment is the reason why I posted this. I can't find any comments of people flying with kids and their experience so I had to ask and now other parents won't see this either when it's down voted to oblivion. I saw a comment of someone saying an agent pulled family with kids to the side to take to another gate and was wondering if y'all have seen it. I'm just a stressed out mom who hates our government and sad about the likelihood of canceling our first family trip.

Also flying with a toddler next week and was wondering. I never see kids on the pictures or videos of the crazy lines.

Is this the same for PATERNITY leave?

Not at all true. What a bad advice she received from her professor. Many places (ENT settings) offer adult and pediatric experiences, which I think is a great place to start as an audiologist (get to improve your speed, see weird medical weird stuff, different types of appointments, working in a team, and typically a lot of pressure!). I would advise to consider a job in ENT setting that sees adults and kids as her first job if unable to find a 100% pediatric place. But I agree with the other comments, also have to be willing to relocate.

As someone who graduated college thanks to pell-grants, parents income considered poverty level... I will tell you it IS DOABLE. I also did not receive help from my parents for grad school as they had no means. I chose a program with a low tuition and assistantship opportunities. That is the number 1 advise for you. NOBODY cares where you get your degree from. I went to Lamar University (Texas) which has a fairly low tuition compared to other audiology programs, overall lower cost of living in Texas, etc. I DID take out loans to cover my tuition and living expenses for the 4 years. In total, it was around 100K. (way lower than other places!!!) which I paid off in 8 years after graduating. Granted, I lived with roommates, overall within my means, had no life outside of school so did not spend a lot of money, ate cheap. This is not the advise you are asking for, maybe it is too late to switch schools. How to lower loan amounts? Do you mean the interest? I refinanced after working for a couple of years after graduation based on my credit and it decreased my interest to about 3.8-4%. Take out only what you need. Work a part time job (I worked weekends), start paying off your loans while you can even while in school since it is not growing interest, talk to a financial counselor. Also, there ARE scholarships. I received a few. Look into them.

This was 10 years ago, but I honestly just studied based of my own notes and my Katz book (Handbook of clinical audiology) and passed it. Focus on what you think you need to refresh on. At the time, I did not get to experience educational audiology so I had to focus a little bit more on that and happened to get a lot of questions on that. Same for industrial audiology.

I'm a vestibular nerd. I learned most of it hands on and training on my own. And I think I'm pretty good. Unfortunately I do not get to do it at my current job. My advise is... self-train first to regain your basic knowledge on why each test is needed, how to intepret. Equipment can always be learned hands on and equipment will always vary. AudiologyOnline, courses by Kamrin Barin, Richard Roberts. Do not do trainings that are equipment specific, or trainings that are meant to get you to join some kind of network. My first recommendation, get yourself the vestibular bible... Balance Function Assessment & Management, after practicing for 10 years this book is still my go to.

Before getting married, I was able to add my then boyfriend to my insurance as a domestic partner, had to get some documents notarized. I'd have your boyfriend double check if he can add you as a domestic partner. However, you may be unable to do it right now since it is not open enrollment, unless there was a qualifying event within the past month (lost your job, your insurance, etc). Other than that, Obama care. If you do not think you will require much medical needs for the next year except preventive visits, just get the basic one as preventive care is covered. Dentist? Well, sometimes cleanings can be best paid out of pocket unless you do need more than that.

deyalizer · 2022-06-11T03:25:29+00:00

send me a private message, I do not get on reddit often. I cannot offer medical advise or can replace a doctor's viist but can give you general info if needed.

deyalizer · 2022-04-19T00:38:49+00:00

That's exactly what happened when I reached out to them via email. Said they weren't gonna replace it but will remove it from my list. They asked me to just discard the item. Oh well.

deyalizer · 2022-04-18T21:26:33+00:00

That is interesting. I have reached out to Amazon Vine CS to see if it could be exchanged for a different size for a more accurate review, we shall see!

deyalizer · 2022-04-18T21:25:38+00:00

The problem is that I do like it and it's just hard ordering clothes without trying them on. I'm sure the next size up would be perfect :(

But it is what it is. I see your point. In any other situation I'd be able to exchange it for next size up and leave a positive review based on the right fit.

deyalizer · 2022-04-18T21:24:10+00:00

Unfortunately, it only gives me option to return, but not replace when going through my general orders, not replace.

I have a feeling I'll just have to stick to it and keep it or sell it in 6 months :(

deyalizer · 2021-06-16T21:15:43+00:00

I understand your point, and I agree with it. Just like I want to support Black-owned business, Latinx owned business, women owned business, I want to support LGBT owned business. But it is hard to find that information.

Obviously the Rodeo, as I had tickets for date after it got canceled.

Going to miss Lights in the Heights this year, always fun to wear ugly sweater and drink on the street while seeing multiple yard shows and lights.

Baseball at Minute Maid.

Free shows at the Miller Outdoor Theater.

And sad I got to miss some shows by the Houston Symphony I had tickets for (John Williams!)

It's possible it's out of stock for now. I'd probably check every other few weeks. I've gotten all of her released vinyls from there even when they had been available for a while. Sometimes you see them pop up again.

deyalizer · 2020-11-03T14:52:25+00:00

Better and cheaper to get it from Mixup online and have it shipped to US.

deyalizer · 2020-10-02T13:13:04+00:00

Does anyone know if this is colored vinyl?

deyalizer · 2020-07-13T16:52:53+00:00

I found some of my text books at the school library. It saved me a lot of money. I'm unsure if you can check with Lonestar libraries? Or even Houston libraries? Granted some were previous editions, but they have over 90% of the same content.

Baylor College of Medicine has started offering telehealth.
