Sedona from Richmond, Nov 14–21: $1,949 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- $385 per person, $25 below the typical fare on this route
- Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona: 8.8 from 867 reviews, free cancellation
- Highs of 55–66°F, good weather for hiking Cathedral Rock
The catch: It's one stop and 6h 42m to Phoenix, Sedona is two hours north from there, and resort fees and a checked bag aren't in the total.
Worth it if you want a week of red-rock hiking, spa time and quiet nights; skip it if you need a nonstop or beach heat.
Worth it if a one-stop flight is fine with you: $1,949 for two covers the flights at $770 plus 7 nights at Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona at $1,179, taxes and fees included, but not resort fees, a checked bag or spending money. You leave Saturday, Nov 14 and come home Saturday, Nov 21, 2026, flying American with one stop and 6h 42m on the way out.

Why now
At $385 per person on American, the fare is $25 below the typical fare on this route. That's 6% under the $410 median of our earlier checks and the lowest in 30 days. For two, the flights come to $770. Add 7 nights at Hilton Vacation Club Ridge on Sedona and the trip is $1,949, taxes and fees included, before resort fees, a checked bag or spending money. November is peak season in Sedona, with the mildest hiking weather and the highest rates, so paying less than typical for the flights helps. Typical highs run 55–66°F with lows near 39°F, which works for long days on Cathedral Rock or Devil's Bridge and crisp nights under dark skies. These prices were all-in when we checked and can change at any time.
The kind of trip this is
This is a nature and wellness week: red-rock trails in the morning, a spa or a slow lunch in the afternoon, and dark skies at night. It suits a couple or two friends who like to hike without rushing. Seven nights gives you room to mix big days like Devil's Bridge with easy afternoons in Uptown Sedona. The pace is unhurried, and you'll want layers for the cool evenings.
