Fly Waco Savings Calculator

A direct flight might look cheaper, but the total travel cost is what matters.

The Fly Waco Savings Calculator reveals the time and money savings from choosing your local Waco Regional Airport.

  • Zero Drive Stress: No need to drive hours to and from a major airport
  • Low Parking Fees: Eliminate expensive parking fees and time-consuming shuttle services
  • Easy Check In: Arrive at least one hour before your flight departure
  • Fast Security: Enjoy shorter TSA lines

Understanding the Cost Breakdown

These amounts are calculated by:

  • Airfare that you provided per passenger.
  • Parking rates for the least expensive lot at each airport (not including privately owned or operated lots).
  • The travel time and distance to and from each airport using the center point of Waco city limits as the starting point (approximately the intersection of Waco Drive and 18th street).
  • The value of time is $30 per hour per person (median hourly wage rate in Texas).
  • The value of mileage is $0.70 per mile for one vehicle (based on the 2025 IRS mileage rate)
