Upcoming New Direct Flights From Austin
[QUOTE=JuneFly;3079420]I'm in a similar situation. If it weren't for the distance, it would actually be cheaper to fly to Colombia or Brazil than to fly to Monterrey from central Texas. I find it less of a hassle to take an overnight bus, Tornado or Omnibus VIP (not Greyhound / Flix) to Monterrey than to deal with flights, parking, security / immigration lines at the airport.[/QUOTE]Yes! I could take a bus but 8 hours from Austin not for me. I take nice buses when within a country Costa Rica, Colombia Eje Cafeteria region and more recently CDMX to Puebla. I find good quality bus companies and very comfortable traveling in them but for me max hours I can do is 2-3.
Although more expensive at least flights from Austin and San Antonio to MTY can be direct saving a lot of time and hassle. If like Costa Rica next March there will start a direct flight to San Jose on Southwest I believe. Austin also added capability of direct flight to Bogota so that opens up Colombia much more.
