Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Downtown Airport to San Diego Airport last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is a great way to travel the globe, but it's not necessarily the wisest method to get your hands on a bargain airfare. Consider booking your MKC to SAN journey well in advance instead of leaving it till the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. Save up that spontaneity for when you're exploring SAN!
