By plane
Corpus Christi is primarily served by Corpus Christi International Airport IATA: CRP (http://www.cctexas.com/ai...), which is located within city limits. Served by American Eagle, Continental Express, and Southwest Airlines, with nonstop flights to Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston George Bush Intercontinental, and Houston Hobby respectively. Flying into the local airport may be slightly more expensive than flying into cities with larger airports.
Some visitors and many locals choose to use San Antonio International Airport IATA: SAT (http://www.sanantonio.gov...), or Austin-Bergstrom International Airport IATA: AUS, which is about two and a half hours by car from Corpus Christi. Frequent flights to many destinations make this a more convenient airport, even given the travel time from the airport to Corpus Christi.
