Why go now
At $552 per person, this fare is $45 below the typical fare on this route. That's 8% under the $597 median of our earlier checks, and the fare has the Lowest in 30 days badge. Across the 12 offers we saw, fares ran from $552 to $849, so this one sits at the bottom of that range. Prices include taxes and fees as found when we checked, and they can change before you book. Mid-October is a comfortable time for a city weekend. The forecast shows highs of 64–75°F, lows down to 46°F and rain chances of 1–3%. That's good walking weather for Lower Broadway, a show at the Ryman and a hot chicken run. For two people, flights, the best-value hotel and a $520 spending allowance come to $2,117.
The kind of trip this is
This is a music-and-food city weekend: live bands from noon, hot chicken for lunch and a songwriter round at night. It suits a couple or a group of friends who like to stay out late and sleep in. Downtown is walkable, so the pace stays easy. Still, two nights go quickly, so pick one big show and keep the rest loose.
