Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts
The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “How far in advance should I book?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from Tampa to Baltimore cost?” are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights on this route over the past 12 months or more.
Where a route has too few bookings to fill every point in a chart, we borrow the shape of the curve from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on this route.
Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches on this route.
The chart “When is the best time of day to fly?” is calculated directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about flying from Tampa to Baltimore.
What is the typical flight duration from Tampa to Baltimore?
Flights from Tampa to Baltimore cover about 844 miles. The typical nonstop flight time is 2 hours 20 minutes, with the return direction taking 2 hours 30 minutes — the westbound leg back to Tampa is slightly longer. Both directions are served by Frontier and Southwest.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.
Are there any direct flights from Tampa to Baltimore?
Yes, Southwest Airlines and Frontier Airlines both fly nonstop from Tampa to Baltimore, and each operates the route daily. Southwest runs 37 weekly nonstop flights with departures spread across the day from early morning through late evening, while Frontier offers one daily departure around 8:15 AM.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.
What are the ground transportation options in Baltimore?
BWI offers a full slate of ground transportation to Baltimore, with taxi stands outside baggage claim, app-based rideshare pickup on the upper level, and multiple public transit options. The Maryland Transit Administration Light Rail runs directly from the terminal to downtown Baltimore for $2.00 each way, and a free shuttle connects to the BWI Rail Station for MARC and Amtrak service. Rideshare is the most-used option, with Uber drivers rated 5.0 stars across over 13,000 trips, while the Light Rail is the fastest budget-friendly choice at about 30 minutes to downtown. Car rentals and private shuttle services like SuperShuttle are also available, though no single mode dominates for speed since traffic on I-95 can make driving unpredictable.

When is the cheapest time to fly from Tampa to Baltimore?
Fares from Tampa to Baltimore are lowest in late January, around $170. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $180, followed by February ($181) and May ($207). July is the most expensive month at about $246, and fares peak in late June at about $247. The yearly average is $217. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.
How far in advance should I book tickets from Tampa to Baltimore?
Book about 5 weeks before departure for the best fares from Tampa to Baltimore, around $138. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $281, $143 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $283. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.
Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Tampa to Baltimore?
Yes, overnight red-eye service operates from Tampa to Baltimore on Southwest, with four weekly flights departing at 10:30 PM on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. These flights land at 12:55 AM, arriving in the early hours after midnight rather than the next morning.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.
Which airlines usually operate this route from Tampa to Baltimore?
Southwest Airlines and Frontier Airlines operate non-stop flights from Tampa to Baltimore. Southwest flies 37 times per week, with departures throughout the day from early morning to late evening, while Frontier operates once daily. Both airlines fly this route every day of the week.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.
How reliable are on‑time arrivals on this route from Tampa to Baltimore?
Southwest Airlines is the most reliable carrier on this route, with 79.8% of flights arriving within 15 minutes of schedule and a 1.4% cancellation rate. Frontier Airlines trails at 66.7% on-time arrivals with a 0.9% cancellation rate.
Methodology
On-time arrival and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; a flight counts as on time when it arrives within 15 minutes of schedule. Carriers are ranked by arrival on-time rate on this route, and the carrier list itself comes from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI).

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Tampa to Baltimore?
Southwest Airlines operates most of the flights from Tampa to Baltimore, using Boeing 737-700 aircraft. Frontier Airlines also flies the route nonstop with Airbus A320 family aircraft.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.
