Frontier · with a stop · 7h 26m
The catch: Frontier's one stop stretches the outbound to 7h 26m, Friday has a 41% rain chance, and resort fees and a checked bag are not in the total.
Worth it if you want brisket, live music and a short weekend for $1,148; skip it if a 7h 26m one-stop flight eats too much of two nights.
