Can you fly from San Diego to San Felipe?

There are no direct commercial flights from San Diego, California (SAN) to San Felipe, Mexico (SFH). San Felipe's airport, San Felipe International Airport (SFH), primarily serves private and charter flights rather than scheduled commercial airlines. However, you do have some options if you're considering air travel:

Charter Flights: You could arrange a private or charter flight from San Diego to San Felipe. This would likely be expensive (potentially $500 or more, based on historical data for private arrangements), and you'd need to coordinate with a service like a local aviation company or a resort that offers such flights (e.g., Eldorado Club has been mentioned in forums for similar services). Nearby Airports with Commercial Flights: The closest major airport to San Felipe with commercial service is General Rodolfo Sánchez Taboada International Airport (MXL) in Mexicali, about 120 miles (193 km) northwest of San Felipe. However, there are no direct commercial flights from San Diego to Mexicali either. You’d need to fly to a larger hub like Tijuana (TIJ) or Los Angeles (LAX) and then connect to Mexicali, followed by ground transportation (bus or car) to San Felipe. This makes flying less practical than driving. Practicality: The flight distance from San Diego to San Felipe is approximately 186 miles (300 km), but due to the lack of nonstop commercial options, the total travel time with connections and transfers would likely exceed the 5–7 hours it takes to drive or take a bus. Driving from San Diego to San Felipe takes about 5 hours (238–242 miles depending on the route), and bus options via Tijuana or Mexicali take around 7–8 hours and cost $35–$100. Given this, flying isn’t a straightforward or commonly recommended option for this route. Most travelers drive or take a bus from San Diego to San Felipe due to convenience, cost, and the lack of direct flight availability. If you’re set on flying, you’d need to look into chartering a plane, but for most people, the road trip is the way to go. Would you like details on driving or bus options instead?
