Cheap flights from San Salvador to Flores

The listed fare months run from October to May, so December and January are likely the costlier stretch of that window, especially around Christmas and school holidays. From there, prices ease through the spring months, and May is the cheapest month shown. If you are travelling in December or January, book as early as you can, and if you can move your dates, compare several May departures before deciding. The price calendar on this page is the practical place to check the day-by-day pattern.

The difference you feel first is in what the fare includes: some of these carriers sell a basic seat and charge separately for bags and changes, while others include more in the ticket, so compare the rules before you book. All listed service on this route is connecting, because no direct flight is shown. The carriers named are Taca Intl Airlines, Avianca, Transportes Aéreos Guatemaltecos, Lacsa and United Airlines, and they may connect through different points with different layover lengths. Check the minimum connection time, whether bags are checked through, and whether a missed connection is protected on one ticket or on separate tickets.

Arrange your onward transport before you land, because Mundo Maya serves Flores and the town centre is not right beside the terminal. Taxis, shuttles and pre-booked transfers are the usual ways in, and it is worth agreeing the fare or reserving a seat in advance. Keep your passport, any required visa or onward ticket and accommodation details handy for arrival checks. Watch the time of day you land, since late arrivals can mean fewer transfer options and a quieter terminal.
