Hi, friends!
There are two EQUALLY great ways to get to Waco, Texas. First, you can fly into the Waco Airport (listed as "ACT" in airline websites) via a connection through DFW (the Dallas airport). There are about three flights a day to Waco via American Eagle usually. The flight is *tiny* and about twenty minutes of airtime.
The OTHER way you can get to Waco is fly into Dallas (via DFW or Love Field) on any major airline (there should be a ton of flights), and then rent a car and drive the hour and a half to Waco. It's a fairly easy drive and often ends up being cheaper than taking the little American Eagle flight. As someone who has done that drive MANY times, I think this is an easier way to get there in the long run, plus you can stop and grab a Sonic drink or snack on the way and have a car for the weekend, which will allow you to visit other parts of the surrounding area/more of Waco than just downtown.
Also, a note: please book your rooms in the room blocks by 11/11/25!
