Southwest flies to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport from dozens of US cities with nonstop service. FLL is a major South Florida gateway, and Southwest connects it to Baltimore, Chicago Midway, Atlanta, Dallas Love Field, Houston Hobby, Nashville, Denver, and more. Fares from the East Coast can start around $69 one-way during off-peak months. The airport sits just 3 miles from downtown Fort Lauderdale and about 30 miles north of Miami Beach.
Cheapest Months to Travel
September and October are the sweet spot for low fares. It's technically hurricane season, so demand drops and prices follow.
Peak Travel Seasons to Avoid
December through April is peak season in South Florida. Snowbirds and spring breakers push fares and occupancy up across the board.
Best Time to Book
4 to 6 weeks ahead for off-peak travel. For peak winter season, start looking 2 to 3 months out.
Midweek Advantage
Tuesdays and Wednesdays are typically $30 to $60 cheaper than Friday or Sunday flights.
Time Difference to Keep in Mind
Fort Lauderdale runs on Eastern Time (ET), matching New York and Atlanta. 1 hour ahead of Chicago, 2 ahead of Denver, 3 ahead of LA.
