5. Fly from Austin to Guadalajara, Mexico, for as low as $416 round trip

Monterrey may be the industrial and commercial hub of northern Mexico, but it offers a wide range of entertainment and cultural attraction, ranging from the largest central plaza in the country to thrilling bull fights and Lucha Libre matches. At around $389, United's round trips are the best option for Austin residents who want to explore this sprawling city, so hop onto one of their flights and you'll be gazing up at the saddle-­shaped Cero de la Silla and chowing down on spicy northern Mexican fare in no time!

3. Fly from Austin to Cancun, Mexico, for as low as $370 round trip

Dreaming of a relaxing tropical getaway in an all­-inclusive resort? Good news: the third cheapest destination on this list is none other than Cancun, whose palm-­fringed white­-sand beaches and bright turquoise waters are enough to sweep any visitor's worries away. United's round trip with stops can be as low as $370, but as travel times range from four to 24 hours or more, consider paying $25 more to fly direct ­­ you'll lying in the sand less than 3 hours after take­off.

2. Fly from Austin to San Jose del Cabo, Mexico, for as low as $327 round trip

The pristine sands of Lover's Beach, the underwater sand falls and the rock formations of Land's End are only some of the beautiful sights that await in San Jose del Cabo ­­ and for only $328 to boot! If the fantastic landscapes, outdoor sports and great nightlife of this resort town are tempting you, you'll find the best deals with United and Delta. Whatever airline you choose, though, airfare rates tend to plummet from late April to early June, making most of the spring a good period to visit.

1. Fly from Austin to Mexico City, Mexico, for as low as $312 round trip

Although Mexico City's bustling streets are a far departure from the previous two paradisaical beach destinations, they offer a great mix of contemporary entertainment and historical attractions that just can't be found anywhere else.
