Because Delta Air Lines treats Tampa as a hub, this pairing tends to have frequent departures throughout the day. American Airlines and Southwest Airlines also compete here, which keeps fares in check.
The 971 miles between San Antonio and Tampa works out to about 2h 36m in the air, the range where nonstops are common on busy days and connections through a hub fill in the rest. Ask the agent to compare both; the one-stop is sometimes cheaper by a wide margin.
Southern departures see their highest fares over spring break and the winter holidays; late summer and the weeks after Labor Day typically bring the lowest prices.
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday departures are usually the cheapest days on domestic routes; Friday and Sunday are the most expensive. Early-morning and late-evening flights are often priced below the midday departures.
For domestic travel, booking three to eight weeks ahead usually captures the best price. Inside two weeks, fares climb; more than four months out, airlines have not yet released their cheapest inventory.
