Thank you for your interest in the George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) Airport Rangers program. The Airport Rangers program was created with security and community participation in mind. Airport Rangers are mounted security patrol made up of volunteers, including off-duty law enforcement officers that ride their horses along the perimeter of the 11,000 acre Bush Intercontinental Airport. In return for keeping an eye out for suspicious activity in the area, equestrians have a pristine location, including wooded trails to ride and the airport has extra eyes and ears in areas that most security patrols can not easily access.
All riders will be required to fill out an application and undergo background checks. Once the application is approved and background checks are completed, riders will be issued a photo-identification airport badge giving them access to certain remote airport property. All riders must be equipped with cell phones, so they will be able to call for law enforcement if they spot suspicious activity. Riders will be given the phone numbers to call. The trails are well-marked to give points of reference.
