The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Nonstop Frontier, 3h 6m, IAH to Phoenix at $108 per person
- Hotel rated 8.8 from 867 reviews, with free cancellation
- Hiking weather, highs 55–66°F, for Cathedral Rock and Devil's Bridge
The catch: Sedona is two hours north of Phoenix, November is peak season with the highest rates, and resort fees and a checked bag are not in the total.
Worth it if you want a week of trails, jeep rides and dark skies; skip it if you're after warm pool days or a short trip.
Worth it if you like cool-weather hiking and don't mind a two-hour drive from Phoenix: $1,395 for two, all in, covers the Frontier flights at $216 plus 7 nights at Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona at $1,179, taxes and fees included. You fly nonstop from Houston (IAH) to Phoenix (PHX) on Saturday, Nov 14, and come home Nov 21. Resort fees, a checked bag and spending money are not in that total.

Why now
At $108 per person round trip, the nonstop Frontier fare is $132 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, a 55% gap across the 12 offers we checked. With the hotel, the whole week comes to $1,395 for two, all in. November is peak season in Sedona, with the mildest hiking weather and the highest rates, so a low fare does a lot of the work here. Typical highs run 55–66°F with lows near 39°F: good for long trail days and cool, clear-headed evenings outside. The flight leaves Houston at 11:39 AM and lands in Phoenix at 1:45 PM local time, which leaves the afternoon for the drive north. These prices were all in when we checked, and they can change before you book.
The kind of trip this is
This is a nature week: red-rock trails in the morning, a spa hour or a slow lunch in the afternoon, stars at night. It suits couples and friends who like being outdoors at an easy pace, and anyone looking for a quiet reset. Seven nights leave room for a day up Oak Creek Canyon to Flagstaff without rushing anything else.
