Why now
At $220 per person round trip, this fare is $8 below the $228 median of our 6 earlier checks on this route, or 4% less. It's a modest dip, not a fire sale. We checked it with taxes and fees included, and prices can move. If you'd rather skip the connection, we also found a Frontier nonstop leaving at 6:00 AM and landing at 8:47 AM for $238 per person. November is Sedona's peak season, with the mildest hiking weather and the highest hotel rates, so a low fare helps offset the room. Expect highs of 55–66°F and lows down to 35°F, which means long trail days without the summer heat. Our rough budget for two comes to $4,279 for the week: $440 for flights, $1,179 for the best-value hotel and $2,660 for spending. It's a good fit for hikers, couples and anyone who wants a quiet desert week.
The kind of trip this is
This is a nature and wellness trip: red-rock hikes in the morning, a spa or a scenic drive in the afternoon, stars at night. It suits couples looking for a romantic slow week, and friends who like an active vacation with plenty of trail time. The pace is easy. Seven nights gives you room to mix big hikes with lazy days, and there's no rush to fit everything in.
