Asheville from Nashville, Oct 30–Nov 1: $1,090 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Fare is $347 per person, $87 below the typical fare on this route
- Best Western scores 8.3 from 1,418 reviews, breakfast included
- Peak fall foliage on the Parkway, highs of 59–62°F
The catch: Both legs have 2 stops, 24h 33m of travel round trip for a 240-mile hop, and a checked bag is about $200 for two.
Worth it if you want fall color and breweries at a fare 20% under typical; skip it if long two-stop flights would eat your weekend.
Worth it if you don't mind 2 stops each way: the fare is 20% below typical, and peak fall foliage lines up with your dates. The whole trip is $1,090 for two, all in: flights at $694 plus the Best Western at $355 and $41 in property fees, taxes included, but not bags or spending money. It's 2 nights, Friday, Oct 30 to Sunday, Nov 1, 2026, on G4, and it isn't nonstop.

Why now
At $347 per person, the fare is $87 below the typical fare on this route, which is 20% less. The best-value hotel adds $355 for two nights with breakfast, which brings the whole trip to $1,090 for two, all in, at the prices we found. Prices change, so we can't promise it'll hold. The timing works too. Late October is peak fall foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway, though the season note warns these are also the busiest weekends, so expect company at the overlooks. Weather normals for these dates show highs of 59–62°F and lows near 44°F, with drizzle Friday and overcast skies after that. That's jacket weather, which suits a walk through the Biltmore gardens, an afternoon at the breweries and a bluegrass show at night.
The kind of trip this is
A mountain-town fall weekend that mixes nature, food and culture. It suits a couple or a pair of friends who like scenic drives, a historic estate, craft beer and live music at night. The pace is easy: one big outing a day, such as Biltmore or the Parkway, then walkable evenings downtown. You'll arrive late Friday and fly out early Sunday, so plan your weekend around Saturday.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
Worth it if you can live with 2 stops each way. The fare is $347 per person, 20% below the typical $434, and late October is peak foliage season. If 24h 33m of round-trip travel for a 2-night weekend sounds like too much, skip this one.
How much is the whole trip for two?
It's $1,090 for two, all in: $694 in flights plus $355 for 2 nights at Best Western Asheville-Blue Ridge Parkway and its $41 in property fees, taxes included. Checked bags (about $200 for two) and spending money are extra.
What is the weather like?
Weather normals for these dates show highs of 59–62°F and lows near 44°F. Expect drizzle Friday and overcast skies Saturday and Sunday, so pack a rain layer and a warm jacket.
Is 2 nights enough?
It's a tight trip. You land at 11:04 PM Friday and leave at 7:30 AM Sunday, so Saturday is your one full day. Pick Biltmore or the Parkway, then spend the evening downtown.
Can I cancel the hotel?
Only La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Downtown Asheville offers free cancellation. It's $360 for the stay, $5 more than the Best Western, and it also includes breakfast.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip from Nashville International (BNA) to Asheville Regional (AVL), and you'll pay in US dollars.
