Flying to San Antonio from the North east. The fare to San Antonio is pricier than flying to Austin. Worth it to fly to Austin, drive down to San Antonio and the reverse way back? The diff is about 150-200usd

I’d pay the extra 150 than deal with the nightmare that is I-35.

Not really, in my opinion. It’s over an hour without traffic but the traffic can get really bad. I also prefer the SAT airport. It’s smaller and easier to get to.

SAT is actually a really solid airport

It’s about 80 miles. Not sure on the construction and traffic situation currently but in general there can be a lot of construction or traffic on the whole I-35 corridor (just some small changes they’ve been making for at least 20+ years). It’s a bit of a gamble. Only plus is Austin airport is south of Austin so you don’t have to drive through downtown to get to San Antonio. If it was north of Austin I would say HELL NO.
