Sedona from Cleveland, Nov 14–21: $1,842 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Hotel rated 8.8 from 867 reviews, with free cancellation
- Fare is $38 below the highest fare we saw for these dates
- Highs of 55–66°F in peak hiking season for the red rocks
The catch: The outbound has two stops and takes 23 hours, landing in Phoenix at 12:42 AM, and checked bags add about $240 for two.
Worth it if you want a week of hiking and quiet desert nights; skip it if a 23-hour travel day with two stops would wear you out.
Worth it if you can handle a long travel day: the trip is $1,842 for two, which covers the flights at $663 and 7 nights at Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona at $1,179, taxes and fees included. It runs Nov 14–21, 2026 on carrier F9 into Phoenix, and it isn't nonstop: the outbound has two stops and takes 23 hours. Checked bags, any resort fee and spending money aren't in that total.

Why now
At $332 per person, the fare is $38 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. That works out to 10% under the $370 top fare, and it held across 12 offers we checked. With the hotel added, the whole week comes to $1,842 for two. Mid-November is peak season in Sedona. That means the mildest hiking weather, with typical highs of 55–66°F and lows near 39°F, but it also means the highest rates, so a best-value room at $168 a night is a real find. The forecast normals show mostly overcast days and a clear Friday, Nov 20, which is cool enough to take on Cathedral Rock at midday. You won't need a passport, and Arizona is just 2 hours behind Cleveland, so your body clock barely shifts. It's a full week of trails, scenic drives and dark skies, and it's paid for before you leave.
The kind of trip this is
This is a nature-and-reset week in the desert. You'll spend mornings on red-rock trails, take slow afternoons in town or at a spa, and spend the nights looking up at a dark sky. It suits a couple or two friends who like to hike at their own pace and then do very little. If you need nightlife or a beach, look elsewhere. If you want space to breathe, this is it.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
It's worth it if the travel day doesn't bother you. You get a week in Sedona in peak hiking season for $1,842 for two, at a hotel rated 8.8 with free cancellation. The trade-off is the outbound flight, which has two stops and takes 23 hours.
How much is the whole trip for two?
It's $1,842 all in: $663 for two round-trip fares plus $1,179 for 7 nights at Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona, taxes and fees included. That's what we found when we checked, and prices change. Checked bags (about $240 for two), any resort fee and spending money are extra.
What are the flight times?
You leave Cleveland at 3:21 PM on Saturday, Nov 14, and land in Phoenix at 12:42 AM. That flight has two stops and takes 23 hours. The return leaves at 10:21 PM on Saturday, Nov 21, and arrives at 12:00 PM on Nov 22.
What is the weather like?
Typical highs run 55–66°F, with lows near 39°F. The normals show mostly overcast days and a clear Friday, Nov 20. It's mild weather for hiking, but bring layers for the cold mornings and evenings.
Do I need a passport?
No. Sedona is in Arizona, so you'll pay in US dollars and only need to set your watch back 2 hours from Cleveland.
How do I get to Sedona from the airport?
The flight lands at Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX), and Sedona is about two hours north. You land at 12:42 AM, so plan for that late arrival before the drive. Flagstaff Pulliam (FLG) is the other nearby airport.
