The prices and details in this post are only valid up to the latest update (see time-stamps above). Prices and availability can and will change eventually.
Delta has round-trip flights from Austin (AUS) to San Jose, Costa Rica (SJO) for $266, with a connection. Flights from October to early-December. See the Flight Details section of this post for example booking dates.
To save the most money, be sure to make use of the travel coupon codes available at the bottom of this post. Booking your trip as Flight+Hotel package will probably save you more money than booking both separately.
Note: OTAs such as Orbitz and Priceline allow free cancellation before 10 PM CST the day after purchase. As deals sell-out or expire quickly, this policy allows you to “lock-in” the cheap fare while you sort out a plan. After the grace period, you will not be able to cancel without the regular penalty.
United, Delta, JetBlue and Virgin America offer free cancellation within the next 24-hours after purchase while American allows you to “Hold” a ticket for 24-hours. Keep in mind that once you pay for a ticket on AA.com you can’t cancel it without a change fee or penalty, even if was purchased less than 24-hours ago.
The Department of Transportation doesn’t enforce 24-hour free cancellation on tickets less than 7-days away from departure, so some airlines and OTAs will allow it while some will not. On Orbitz, you can easily see if your ticket allows a free cancellation, just look for “FREE Cancel” next to the price of the ticket.
I was able to pull this fare up on Travelocity and Orbitz, but I wasn’t able to pull it up on Priceline. (Example booking screenshot below)
