Cheap Flights To San Antonio

"If this world be sovereign and free/For we'll fight to the last for as long as liberty be/So the rest of Texas will know/And remember the Alamo."

The battle of the Alamo is one of the most storied moments in American history, when brave soldiers fought against all odds and modern Texas as we know it was launched. In San Antonio, you won’t just hear why the city's motto is "Libertatis cunabula"—the "Cradle of Liberty"—you will feel it in your soul. But legendary history isn’t all that’s on offer when you have Travelocity’s San Antonio plane tickets in your back pocket. You will also find leisurely strolls along the River Walk, days of revelry at amusement parks, and fine dining at the top of a soaring tower, all at your fingertips. And since you have found the cheapest flights to San Antonio around, you can afford to see and do it all.

Things to Do Near SAT

If you can’t wait to get out there and explore, we understand. Even if your San Antonio flight brings you to the city for only a short time on a layover, there are still some nearby attractions that can give you a feel for this folksy Texas town.

• McAllister Park is the largest in the city, and when we say large, we mean it. It has more than 25 miles of trails rolling over gently sloping hills, skimming through shallow marshes, and weaving through lush forests. It’s the perfect spot to clear your mind, or to fill it with dreams of all that you will do in San Antonio.
• Morgan’s Wonderland is the place to be for those with little ones in tow—and for adults who just want to act like kids. No one wants to sit in the airport with squirming little ones, but never fear. This nearby amusement park is here to save the day with 25 acres of sensory delights.
• North Star Mall may not sound too special, but wait until we tell you the real draw. There is a pair of giant cowboy boots located near Saks Fifth Avenue, and at night they are illuminated. This is sure to be the focal point of your scrapbook. In addition, you can pick up a few pieces that will become the focal point of your wardrobe: Armani, Kate Spade, and Michael Kors all have stores here.
