Cheap flights to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (OK)

Oklahoma City’s weather changes all year long. In the summer, between June and September, temperatures soar into the 80’s, while in the winter, from December to February, the cold sets in with temperatures dropping to 40 degrees Fahrenheit and rare occasions of snowfall in January. The most precipitation, however, falls in May and June, and leads into the sticky humid months of June and July.

If you’re hoping to spend most of your time outside, then book your flight during the summer months of June until September, when the weather is warm.

Peak Season:

Most travelers book flights to Oklahoma City between July and October, when the warm weather casts a happy glow on the thriving city. 

Off-peak Season:

Because rainfall can put a damper on just about any outdoor fun, cheap flights to Oklahoma City are commonly found in May and June, when it rains the most. 

After you land at the airport, you can hop on an airport express shuttle or take a taxi to get to your hotel. Once you’re downtown, ride the Oklahoma Spirit trolleys, which take you through downtown and the Bricktown entertainment district. A great way to get to other cities like Santa Fe or Fort Worth is aboard the Amtrak Heartland Flyer train. Oklahoma City doesn’t have an Amtrak office, so you can just buy your tickets on the train or online. Greyhound buses also depart daily.

Crystal Bridge: Nature lovers booking flights to Oklahoma City should look no further than the Crystal Bridge, where plant life coexists in harmony with exotic breeds, making a wonderful blend of colors, smells and arrangements. In this gorgeous seven-story conservatory, plants from every continent (except Antarctica, of course) grow together and cohabit in breathtaking settlements.

Oklahoma City National Memorial Museum: April 19, 1995, is a day that will live in the hearts of Oklahoma City locals for many years. On that day, the city that rarely made international headlines gained a sad and eerie spotlight focused around mystery and loss. The Oklahoma City National Memorial Museum honors those victims, survivors, and rescuers that were sadly lost during the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. The heart-breaking death toll reached 168, and now that exact number of empty chairs surrounds the building, representing each life that was lost. Within the museum’s boundaries eyewitness accounts, news footage, exhibitions, and documents are displayed in order to fully portray the remembrance of the tragic victims. While hardly a happy tourist sight, the museum is a must-see for anyone planning to travel to Oklahoma City.
