Myrtle Beach from Detroit, Oct 23–25: $1,004 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Fare is $404 per person, $43 below the typical fare on this route
- Baymont with breakfast, free cancellation, rated 8 from 505 reviews
- Highs of 67–74°F and a 4–6% rain chance all weekend
The catch: One stop and 44h 3m of round-trip travel, landing Saturday 9:13 AM and home Monday 11:29 PM; a checked bag is about $240 for two.
Worth it if you want a mild beach weekend for less and can get home late Monday, but skip it if your Monday morning is already booked.
Worth it if you can spare the travel time: $1,004 for two, which is the flights at $808 plus 2 nights at the Baymont at $177 and its $19 resort fee, taxes and fees included. The trip runs Oct 23–25, 2026, 2 nights, on F9 + MX with one stop, so it's not a nonstop. A checked bag and spending money aren't in the total.

Why now
The fare is $404 per person, which is $43 below the typical fare on this route. That's a 10% gap, and the fare has the Lowest in 30 days badge. Across 12 offers we saw fares from $404 to $639 per person. Late October comes after the hurricane peak of August and September and after the hot, crowded peak of July and August. The forecast shows highs of 67–74°F, overcast skies and a 4–6% chance of rain, which is good weather for the boardwalk and the state park. The trade-off is time. This routing uses up Friday night, so your beach time is Saturday plus most of Sunday before an 8:10 PM flight home. If you'd rather keep your Monday, the Delta nonstop takes 1h 57m and cost $629 per person, $1,258 for two, when we checked.
The kind of trip this is
This is an easygoing beach weekend for two adults: walks on the boardwalk, maybe a round of golf, a stroll on the sand at the state park and early nights. Myrtle Beach leans toward families and nightlife, but late October is a slower time to visit. It suits couples or friends who pack light, don't mind a long connection and want a short reset without a big hotel bill.
