Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Raleigh - Durham Intl. Airport (RDU) to SDM last minute?
Booking your journey from Raleigh–Durham Airport to SDM at the last minute could save you dollars if you strike it lucky and find a real bargain. However, airfares don't typically get cheaper as the date of departure nears. If you hold off, flights could also be booked out or the best seats gone (hello, middle seat!). If you don't want to risk it, book well in advance of your departure date. In fact, Expedia has some of the biggest deals up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn't released tickets yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia constantly.
What airports do you fly into for San Diego County from Raleigh?
From Raleigh, you can travel to San Diego County through San Diego, CA (SDM-Brown Field Municipal), San Diego Intl. Airport (SAN) and McClellan-Palomar Airport (CLD). Do some research into which hub is the best option for you before making your decision. If you pick San Diego, CA (SDM-Brown Field Municipal), it's approximately 23 kilometers southeast of the downtown area. Use the cash you save when booking your seat with Expedia to uncover the city's popular sights, such as San Diego Zoo and Balboa Park.
Can I change the date of my flight from Raleigh - Durham Intl. Airport (RDU) to SDM?
Easily make changes to your RDU to SDM trip by logging in to the Expedia Trips portal. But before you make any adjustments, review the rules and conditions in your itinerary to see what you're able to do and if fees apply for changes. Some carriers charge a change fee per person, plus any difference in ticket prices. However, if you booked in the last 24 hours, you may be able to cancel for free and organize new flights. You can also find your way to our Customer Service portal for more info and to connect with our Virtual Agent.
