The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Nonstop on Frontier, 2h 14m, landing 4:08 PM Friday
- $365 per person, $13 below the $378 typical fare
- Highs 74–77°F with only a 3% to 8% chance of rain
The catch: All three hotels are by the airport, not downtown, and checked bags run about $240 for two, which isn't in the total.
Worth it if you want a short nonstop weekend of live music and don't mind a ride into town; skip it if you want to walk to Broadway.
Worth it if you don't mind staying by the airport. The trip is $1,169 for two, all in: flights at $730, plus 2 nights at Courtyard by Marriott Nashville Airport at $380 and its $59 hotel fees, with taxes and fees included. You fly nonstop on Frontier (2h 14m) on Friday, Oct 23, and come home Sunday, Oct 25; checked bags and spending money aren't in that total.

Why now
At $365 per person, this nonstop is $13 below the $378 median from 17 earlier checks on this route, about 3% less. The lowest fare we saw in the last 30 days was $335. The forecast for Oct 23–25 is overcast, with highs of 74–77°F, lows of 59–60°F and a 3% to 8% chance of rain. That's good walking weather for Broadway and Centennial Park. The Friday flight leaves Philadelphia at 2:54 PM and lands at 4:08 PM, so you'll get in with time for dinner and a first set. October is also well clear of early June, when CMA Fest fills every hotel. If you add $520 in spending money ($130 a day for each of you), the whole weekend comes to $1,630 for two.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city weekend of live music, food and late nights: honky-tonks from noon, hot chicken and a songwriter round. It's a good fit for a couple or a group of friends who like to stay out. The pace is quick, with two nights and one full Saturday. Plan on rides between the airport-area hotel and the music, and keep Sunday easy before the flight home.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
Yes, if you're fine with an airport-area hotel. The nonstop is $365 per person, $13 below the $378 typical fare, and the forecast shows highs of 74–77°F. If you want to walk out the door onto Broadway, these hotels won't give you that.

What's the weather like that weekend?
The forecast is overcast all three days, with highs of 77°F Friday, 76°F Saturday and 74°F Sunday and lows of 59–60°F. The chance of rain stays between 3% and 8%.
Is 2 nights enough?
It's enough for a long weekend. You land at 4:08 PM Friday, which leaves time for the honky-tonks that night, a full Saturday for the Hall of Fame, hot chicken and a show at the Ryman or the Opry, and Sunday morning in Centennial Park.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic flight from Philadelphia International (PHL) to Nashville International (BNA), and you'll pay in US dollars. Just remember Nashville is 1 hour behind Philadelphia.
