11:30 am.
2 :
12:00 Noon
3 :
11.00-11.30
4 :
You should generally get there an hour before the flight is to leave but I would go for 2 hours early. I was bumped off a flight once when I was an hour early.
5 :
I believe you should be there 2 hrs early.
6 :
You should arrive at the airport at 12 pm. You may have to go through extra security. If your flight is at 1:30 they will start boarding at 1 . Have fun in Atlanta
7 :
11:30 AM. Never assume anything goes according to plan when flying. There's the security check point, checking into your flight, checking luggage, and your flight might get cancelled. If you're there early enough, you could score a seat on another flight.
8 :
You should be fine arriving at 12:30. That means parked and INSIDE the terminal at 12:30. If you are not real familiar with that terminal you may be more comfortable being there by 12:00pm.
9 :
The general rule of thumb used to be 1 hr for domestic flights and 2 hrs for international. Lately a lot of airports have bumped it up to 2 hrs for domestic flights and 3 hrs for international flights. Depending on the airline and airport they tend to vary. I know that when flying out of ATL they refuse to check you in with luggage if its less than 45 mins prior to departure (and do they stick to it, got there once 44 minutes prior to departure and they bumped me to the later flight).
10 :
It is better to be 2 hours early than it is to be one minute late. When the airline closes the flight (usually 30 minutes to one hour before the flight departure), there is no negotiating.
11 :
always go 3 hrs early...speacilly during summer time the lines tend to get longer
12 :
About 12:00-12:30 should be fine if you only have carry-ons. If you don't have checked bags you can check in online tomorrow (Thursday) starting at 1:30 pm and go straight through security when you get to the airport. If you're checking bags, be there no later than noon (11:45-12:00 should be good). You'll check in on a kiosk and it will give you the option to check bags, you'll hit the # of bags, and the tags will print up at the ticket counter. You take the bags, the agent slaps the tags on, puts them on the belt and you head through security. The only wild card is how long the security line is, as your SAT-ATL flight is pretty open availability-wise so waiting in line to check your bags should not be an issue at all.

Stay away from the discounters and try the web sites of South West and a couple of others. You usually get better prices from the airlines themselves and you have a lot more flexibility.. Good luck.

I would try contacting galaxytravel@verizon.net or go to http://www.galaxy.joystar.com but usually they can get you better prices by contacting them.

Cheap flights to Texas (San Antonio) in July?
I know its a lot to ask but i'm only 18 so Im not sure how to compare the cheapest flights. I'll do research on my own and thank you guys for helping me out. Any information is helpful, from a fellow passenger or even a pilot or travel agent! I'll be flying into San Antonio July 24th and flying out August 6th. Thank you so much! I will actually be flying out AROUND the 24th but I could fly out anywhere from July 24-27 and back anywhere from August 6-8 but I want to stay for atleast 10 days.

It's called an "open jaw" ticket and they are normal. However, you have to call an airline (talk to a human) or a real travel agent to ask about prices.
2 :
Southwest has service from Seattle to Dallas Love Field Airport. They also have service from San Antonio to Seattle. Alaska Airlines has service from Seattle to DFW. You can get separate one way tickets.
3 :
american airlines have direct flights on both the routes. SEA - DFW & SAT - SEA. you can get the quote online from the home page you can pick from a return, oneway or multycity
4 :
You don't have to talk to a travel agent or airline to do this; Travelocity and Expedia let you book "multi-destination trips" I don't know what you consider cheap, but I keyed it into Expedia, using 4/27 for SEA-DFW and 5/4 for SAT-SEA, and came up with $299 Southwest shows $153 for SEA-DAL (Love Field) on 4/27 and $163 for SAT-SEA on 5/4, for a total of $316 (and two free checked bags each way).

Southwest has an occasional direct flight between SAT and SEA. Their published schedule seems to change weekly and it varies from 1 day a week to 5 days a week. I am not finding anything on Alaska Airlines, though that doesn't mean they don't seasonaly fly this route, they just don't have any timetables published at the moment.
2 :
i think your friend was confusing Houston with san antiono Alaska has nonstop flighs from Seattle to Houston remember a direct flight usually mean the same plane but it will stop somewhere first
