Nashville from Fort Myers, Oct 23–25: $1,528 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Fare $562 per person, $2 under the $564 typical
- Highs 72–83°F with rain chances of 9% to 20%
- Breakfast included at an 8.1-rated hotel, 1,349 reviews
The catch: It has 2 stops and 37h 29m of round-trip travel, you land Saturday at 1:29 PM, and a checked bag is about $160 for two.
Worth it if you can sleep on planes and want one full Nashville Saturday; skip it if you'd rather pay $1,602 for two for the Southwest nonstop.
Worth it if you can live with long connections: $1,528 for two, all in, is the flights at $1,123 plus the hotel at $405, taxes and fees included, with a checked bag and spending money on top. The trip runs Oct 23–25, 2026, 2 nights, on MX + B6 with 2 stops, not nonstop. You land Saturday, Oct 24 at 1:29 PM, so the Friday hotel night goes unused.

Why now
The fare is $562 per person, $2 below the $564 median of our 8 earlier checks on this route, so you're paying the going rate, not a premium. The lowest we saw in the last 30 days was $533 per person. Late October suits Nashville: the forecast has highs of 80°F Friday, 83°F Saturday and 72°F Sunday, with rain chances of 9% to 20% and some drizzle on Sunday. That's good weather for bar-hopping on Broadway and a walk through Centennial Park. The hitch is the routing: with 2 stops you land Saturday afternoon, fly out Sunday at 9:59 PM and get home Monday at 6:48 PM. If your time matters more, the Southwest nonstop leaves Friday at 8:20 AM and takes 2h 10m for $801 per person.
The kind of trip this is
A city weekend built on live music, hot chicken and late nights. Nashville fits a couple or a group of friends who want bands from noon, a big show at night and not much downtime. With about one full day on the ground, the pace is quick: Saturday on Broadway, then Sunday for the Hall of Fame and a slow lunch before the late flight home.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
For some readers. The fare is $562 per person, $2 under the $564 typical, and the weather looks good. But with 2 stops you land Saturday at 1:29 PM and leave Sunday at 9:59 PM, so you get one full day in Nashville.
How much is the whole trip for two?
$1,528 for two, all in: $1,123 for the flights and $405 for 2 nights at the best-value hotel, taxes and fees included. Add a checked bag at about $160 for two and $520 for spending, and you get our $2,049 budget.
Is there a nonstop?
Yes. Southwest flies nonstop on Friday, Oct 23, leaving at 8:20 AM and landing at 9:30 AM local time after 2h 10m. It costs $801 per person, or $1,602 for two, for the flights alone.

Is 2 nights enough?
On this routing it's tight. You arrive Saturday at 1:29 PM, so you'll use one of the 2 hotel nights. That leaves Saturday on Broadway and most of Sunday before the 9:59 PM departure.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip, you pay in US dollars and Nashville is 1 hour behind Fort Myers.
