Oaxaca

Let’s face it: if you are reading this around the time of posting, you are most likely attempting to grapple with the onslaught that coronavirus has brought upon the world. You might be thinking to yourself, “why would I look into travel right now? That seems completely contradictory to every professional advice I have read! Shouldn’t we shelter in place?” I must address this now: DO NOT TRAVEL*!! At least until the viral spread has substantially subsided. But that doesn’t mean you cannot go travel in the future!! For today’s deal, you must understand that the flight can be made for anytime between July and November! This trip will be a post-pandemic one, which could be much needed.

Welcome back to Cheap Flights and Cheap Sights everyone! We will be analyzing a cheap flight to Oaxaca, Mexico today. Travelling abroad is normally quite expensive for an average person living in the U.S. thanks to the insane prices airlines will give you for roundtrip flights. This is even true for Oaxaca, which will normally run you $650+ roundtrip. But, on random occasion, a specific destination will have crazy cheap flight tickets for reasons like underbooking and technical errors. I will show you how you can fly there for just $250, and make the trip worthwhile and inexpensive.

You read that right: just $25o for a round trip flight here! This is true if you are flying out of Orlando, but other airports run up to $280 round trip. Make sure you look at American and Aeromexico flights only!

Once you arrive in Mexico, you will need to make sure you have the right clothes on! On top of this, you should always plan your activities around the climate. Luckily, you most likely won’t need to worry too much about rain, as it is not more rainy here than it is where you live. In addition, the high never reaches above 90F, and the lows are around the 50s, so you can expect a very unchanging climate in Oaxaca. Be sure to bring both warmish and coldish clothes, since it could be slightly cold or slightly hot on any particular day, and having the right outerwear will make it feel super comfortable. That is the biggest focus when you travel: be comfortable!

Next, let’s find a great cheap place to stay. I always look toward Airbnb, since their listings are usually cheaper than hotels/resorts and almost always include more space to live in than a hotel. In addition, with an Airbnb you get a more immersive experience than you would with a hotel.

Pictured above is a lovely little studio situated in downtown Oaxaca. The space includes a beautiful terrace, which is perfect for evening drinking or even some TikTok creation! This stay will run you about $41 per night, which is a steal in my opinion. You have access to a full kitchen, wifi, a queen bed and a beautiful bathroom. With its central location, you are close to just about everything there is to do in Oaxaca! Some of these activities include swimming in a thermal spring, visiting the beach, and spending time at the Oaxaca Mexico temple. All of these activites cost next to nothing, so be sure to include them in your itenerary!
