Consumption and Real Estate
Why are flights to and from Little Rock, AR so pricey? Are there other airports in the area I should check?
Question : Why are flights to and from Little Rock, AR so pricey? Are there other airports in the area I should check?
While researching possible relocation I noticed that flights to Phoenix, Detroit, Nashville, Memphis, Vegas are extremely high. Almost none of these flights offer non-stop service which I don’t understand. Being from Detroit a flight from here to Chicago is about $ 70 yet a flight from Little Rock to Memphis (about the same distance) is almost $ 300.

Many more travelers and demand to Detroit and Chicago especially with business travel. Little Rock to Memphis, not so much. No demand, No competition really, limited flights, higher prices….always.
Are you booking in advance at all? Without being at work I can’t look at fares to and from these cities and don’t know your dates.
Put it this way flights to places that no one goes to unless they live there or visiting family prices are always more expensive. Don’t wait last min. to you will be disappointed when you see the price EVEN more. Online or not, travel is changing and Vegas isn’t going to be as “cheap” as consumers are used to seeing it. Basically it is coming down to where either you pay the price or you don’t go. Simple as that.
It will take a while to retrain people, but if you want to go places then well like I said many things are changing……these airlines HAVE to get out of bankruptcy and by giving consumers last min. deals isn’t the way to do it.

Many of the airlines hubs are in those cities. One thing you might try is to book a flight from say Detroit to Miami with a connection in Little Rock and just not take the second flight. Alot of times this is actually cheaper than flying into a hub location. I live in Memphis where Northwest’s Hub is and they are the costliest to fly in town.
