AIRLINE INFORMATION - Flights to Belize

U.S. gateway cities to Belize include Miami, Houston and New Orleans.  Belize is a little more than 2 hours by air from Miami, Houston or New Orleans.  Flights to Belize are also available out of Los Angelas, New York, Washington D.C. and from Toronto, Canada.

Some visitors prefer to fly into Cancun as the savings on air-fare can be significant.  From Cancun take the ADO air-conditioned buses to the Mexican border town to Chetumal, or we recommend a private arrangement with a private transfer company from Cancun Airport to Corozal, Belize.  Then taking a Tropic commuter aircraft to the island of Ambergris Caye.  From Cancun to the Belize border is about a 4 hour ride, then from the Belize border to the town of Corzoal is about a half hour.  From Corozal you will board an commuter aircraft with Tropic Airways and you will arrive to the island 20 minutes later. 

TRAVEL WHOLESALERS

There are 3 places online to start your search for flights.  First is with the airlines directly, next is with one of the big online travel wholesalers and/or agencies, which offer flights as well as hotel and car rental options to book online.  Third, are the flight metasearchers which search across online travel agencies and airline websites.

#3 - Metasearchers

Metasearchers have become more popular in the last two years.  These websites search a number of the online websites listed above, plus the airlines directly.  Some of the ones we are finding good results with are as follows:

www.kayak.com
www.sidestep.com
www.cheapflights.com
www.farechase.com
www.mobissimo.com
www.onetime.comwww.qixo.com

While these websites seem to have exclusive web deals not available elsewhere, many sites charge a $5.00 or $6.00 booking fee - so consider these sites as a starting point, not the finish line.
