  • Consider departing from or arriving at nearby airports for a better deal. Enter your preferred departure and arrival points in the form fields, then click on the 'Nearby airports' function below. It will list any available options.

  • The early bird catches the most rewarding deals, so book as soon as you know your travel dates. The cheapest fares are quick to sell out and prices normally climb as the departure date gets closer.
  • Combine your flights, hotels and car rentals into a value-for-money package deal. Save your hard-earned dollars for things that really excite you, like exploring every corner of El Centro.

What do I need for the flight to El Centro?
There's nothing as exciting as flying to a new place, but it's wise to be prepared. These top tips will help get your journey off to a flying start:

  • Whether you print it out or use an electronic one, you'll need your boarding pass to walk on to the plane. You'll also need some type of government-issued photo identification. If you're traveling internationally, make sure your passport is valid.
  • To keep you occupied on your short trip to El Centro, download your favorite songs or stock up the podcast library on your tablet. Food can also be a good distraction while in the air, so take some snacks.
  • Even if you're traveling when it's 100 degrees outside, carry a warm top or scarf on board with you. Cabins can get chilly!

  • Budget airlines offer first or business-class seats at a fraction of the usual cost. Skip the full-service carriers and look up these cheaper options.
  • Take advantage of your airline's rewards program and use points to upgrade your seat. You can also bid for an upgrade in online auctions.

How to get into El Centro from the airport?
Exit arrivals, hop into the driver's seat of an Imperial County Airport (IPL) car rental and drive straight to downtown El Centro. Avis has an on-site branch where you can collect a cool set of wheels right from Imperial County Airport (IPL). You'll find the vibrant center of El Centro about 3 miles away to the southeast. Don't like the idea of navigating unfamiliar city streets right after you arrive? Then take a taxi into the city and spend a few days experiencing El Centro on foot instead. Afterward, you can still venture further afield by renting a vehicle directly from the city center with one of our El Centro car rentals. That way, you'll get the best of both worlds!
What is the best time to go to El Centro?
El Centro is popular in March, April and November. If you're arranging a visit during these months, it would be a good idea to book early to ensure you score the greatest deals.
