First-Timer: Ecuador from TX fares
 

I'm TOTALLY confused about how to find out the best fares flying from Waco, TX to Quito, Ecuador for 2 adults, round trip, within the next month or so. HELP.......:confused:

First problem is flying from ACT/Waco :D

It is too expensive, I recommend driving up to DAL or down to AUS, even GRK and going form there will cut the price at least 50%. All within 1.5 hours.

I live in ACT, but have never even flown out of here since making it home. I fly out of DAL and GRK(Killeen Ft Hood).

travel agent?....look on expedia/travelocity/kayak starting form various air ports that you could use....they will show a # of airlines & fares for your dates....look in the budget travel forum also....if you cant find one you like, dont go....good luck..

SWA Austin/San Antonio/Waco to Nashville AA then Nashville to Miami to Quito. Else drive to DFW and AA all the way in. You are likely to have a longish layover.

Try for the Chase SWA cards and a triple play on the CITI AA cards (assuming you can get a business account on both).

What's your budget? A quick glance at Kayak shows $810 per person on AA from DFW with a dreadfully miserable layover in fetid MIA. For $250 more, you can drive down to IAH and catch a nonstop to UIO on CO.

Personally, nonstops are always the way to go, particularly when a layover would be in MIA.
