Route Briefing: Dallas to Key West
Escaping Dallas for the laid-back charm of the Florida Keys takes 2 hours and 55 minutes over 1,089 miles. American Airlines operates direct nonstops from DFW into Key West International Airport (EYW), placing you right in the heart of tropical paradise.
Key West offers a wonderfully eccentric island atmosphere where roosters roam past Victorian conch houses. Rent a bicycle to explore Old Town, tour Ernest Hemingway's historic home, and join the lively sunset celebration at Mallory Square featuring street acrobats and musicians. Enjoy fresh conch fritters, peel-and-eat pink shrimp, and a slice of tart key lime pie while listening to live acoustic music along Duval Street.
Roundtrip economy fares under $180 are a solid deal, with standard fares ranging from $280 to $420. Peak season runs from November through April when winter travelers seek warm sunshine and calm turquoise waters. Book 6 to 10 weeks ahead for the best economy ticket savings.
