Title: Cheap Flights to Central America - Expedia.com ![The famous pink lakes of Mexico, Rio Lagartos. A magical sight! Pink waters and blue sky, It was like sunset reversed; a feast for eyes! There are plenty of colorful salt lakes near Las Coloradas/Rio Lagartos in the Yucatan peninsula. It is just 2 hours drive away from Chichén Itzá and around 3 hours from Cancun. Public transport is scarce in this part of Mexico. We took a rental car and it was an easy and comfortable journey for us :) Once we reached Las Coloradas, we were welcomed by giant white salt mountains. After driving around the salt mountains for some time, we finally found someone local who took us to this beautiful private salt lake. #nature](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6320352/6e633f4c-84fa-43b3-bec4-0bb91d0fb29a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium) Photo by Amritha ![](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6320352/6e633f4c-84fa-43b3-bec4-0bb91d0fb29a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium) # Cheap Flights to Central America - [Roundtrip](?flightType=roundtrip) - [One-way](?flightType=oneway) - [Multi-city](?flightType=multicity) ### Travelers Adults ChildrenAges 2 to 17 InfantsYounger than 2 EconomyPremium economyBusiness classFirst class Leaving from Going to Departing Returning Add a place to stay Add a car Direct flights only [Central America Travel Guide](https://expedia.com/Central-America.dx553248635975748723)[Hotels in Central America](https://expedia.com/Central-America-Hotels.d553248635975748723.Travel-Guide-Hotels)[Things to do in Central America](https://expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Central-America.d553248635975748723.Travel-Guide-Activities)[Car Rentals in Central America](https://expedia.com/Car-Rentals-In-Central-America.d553248635975748723.Car-Rental-Guide)[Central America Vacation Packages](https://expedia.com/Central-America.d553248635975748723.Destination-Travel-Guides) ## Popular airlines - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_AM.svg) Aeromexico - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_AC.svg) Air Canada - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_AA.svg) American Airlines - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_DL.svg) Delta - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_UA.svg) United - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_F9.svg) Frontier Airlines - ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2024/09/23/landing_airline_sq_logo_B6.svg) JetBlue Airways - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__notification.svg) ### Be in the know Get alerts if flight prices drop or rise\* - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__deals.svg) ### Book smarter Save up to 30% on select hotels after you book a flight\* - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__trophy.svg) ### Earn twice Earn your airline miles on top of our OneKeyCash [Learn about One Key](https://www.expedia.com/welcome-one-key) ## Alternative airports Prices were available within the past 7 days.
