Looking for a direct route from SF, Ca to The Keys

Can anyone recommend a flight I can take to get to the Keys from San Francisco without paying an arm or leg. I want to go direct. What I figured was flying to Chicago then getting on a flight from Ohare they have a non stop. Any other suggestions?

Thanks

Kayak.com, google.com/flights, or talk to a travel agent are likely your best options.

You can fly SFO-MIA/FLL or SFO CLT and connect from there to EYW. Or, fly to MIA and drive to the Keys.

If you want to see a list of airports that have nonstop service to EYW, Google "EYW airport wiki".

My reading says OP is requesting assistance in identifying possible routing options, not fares. Off topic and unhelpful/non-contributory posts have been removed.

Thanks all.

The drive to Key West is dramatic and an experience not to miss at least once. Fly to MIA or FLL or even elsewhere in Florida and rent a car.

SFO-MIA non-stop AA. Direct as you are going to get.

Southwest doesn't fly to EYW or MIA, and requires a stop to get to FLL. So that's terrible advice. (Putting aside that it simply isn't true that Southwest has "cheaper rates")

With all due respect, the OP actually did ask two questions - one about routing ("direct route") and one about fares ("without paying an arm and a leg"). IMHO the second quote refers to fares.
