Book flights to Texas

Everything’s bigger in Texas, as the saying goes, so give yourself plenty of time to explore this sprawling state. Texans lay claim to a host of sights on the “world’s biggest” list, including the world’s tallest cowboy and the world’s largest cowboy boots. That should prepare you for Texas’ charm – its blend of desert-covered backcountry and vibrant cities all come complete with Stetsons and pickup trucks.

Fly to Texas with British Airways to see just how big everything is for yourself. The USA’s second largest state is home to 16 major cities, including well-known destinations like Dallas, Houston and Austin. These metropolitan hubs come complete with skyscrapers, famous American football teams and even a NASA hub. Here you can shop, enjoy classic Tex-Mex dishes and visit museums. Leave the city and you’re met with open road – and in the west of the state you’ll find the Chihuahuan Desert, the largest desert in North America. On your way there, expect small towns leftover from Texas’ frontier history. Discover the modern Wild West when you book your holiday to Texas.

What’s the cheapest month to fly to Texas?

Temperatures are scorching in Texas in the summer, so March and October tend to draw the most crowds thanks to a mix of pleasant weather, festivals and seasonal activites.

When’s the best time to visit Texas?

The best time to visit Texas depends on what you want to do on your trip. The state’s huge size means that the weather can vary depending on the region you’re in, with spots like the Guadalupe Mountains in West Texas and the Houston coastline feeling cooler than the cities. You might want to visit Austin to check out the music festivals in the spring and slip on your hiking boots and swimming costume in the summer.

Is Texas cheap to visit?

Whatever your budget, you can have fun in Texas. Austin calls itself the Live Music Capital of the World and it’s a great place to enjoy gigs that range from pricier arena shows to bars where you only need to pay for your drinks. If you’re in Dallas, check out the many free or cheap-to-visit museums across the city, including the Dallas Museum of Art and the Latino Cultural Centre. The Miller Outdoor Theatre in Houston is an outdoor theatre that offers free shows, and you’ll find farmers’ markets across the state where you can gather ingredients for some home-cooked meals.

Is it easy to get around Texas?

The easiest and quickest way to get around Texas is to drive – hire a car with British Airways and tick off the big cities, mountains and towns along the way. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental. If you’d rather not get behind the wheel, you can travel between cities on buses or by Amtrak train. Once you’re in the heart of the action, you can explore using the metro or bus – but you’ll notice that locals tend to get around using cars.

Why visit Texas?

There’s so much to see and do in Texas. Your biggest challenge will be fitting it all in – you can escape the summer heat with a trip to Houston’s beaches, ride horses on country trails or visit the famous site of JFK’s assassination. Just make sure to give yourself plenty of time to explore so you don’t miss any of the highlights.
