Yeah, Miami or Fort Lauderdale depending on the airline. I know Southwest flies nonstop from Baltimore to Fort Lauderdale relatively cheap. And it's only about 20-25 miles between Fort Lauderdale and Miami. You can fly into Key West, but it'll double or triple your airfare costs easily. Plus flying into Miami/Ft. Lauderdale forces you to rent a car, which comes in handy when day tripping around the Keys.

The drive from Miami/Ft Lauderdale into Key West is incredible. For our honeymoon, my wife and I had my Uncle's convertible, so that made the trip that much more amazing, getting a full view of the surrounding waters and land. We drove in at night, so while it was dark and couldn't see much, the sky views were awesome.
