Tempt your senses with a trip to Memphis. Besides being home to Graceland, Elvis Presley’s mansion, Memphis has enough tastes, smells, sights, and sounds for any traveler. From old-fashioned-backyard barbecues to toe-tapping rhythm and blues music, it’s hard not to book flights to Memphis for a long weekend or a week-long getaway.
Spend a day in Memphis touring The King’s mansion in Graceland before dining on black-eyed peas and cornbread at one of the city’s local diners. Take a steamboat ride on the Muddy Mississippi River or watch a minor league baseball game at AutoZone Park. Whether you’re channeling Elvis with some old time rock-n-roll or need a little Southern cooking to soothe your soul, a cheap flight to Memphis is a worthwhile visit for any traveler.
Memphis has four distinct seasons with cold winters and hot summers. Spring and autumn can be varied and unpredictable and severe weather, like thunderstorms and strong winds, are possible during these transitory seasons. Summers are very humid thanks to moisture encroaching from the Gulf of Mexico, even though the temperature rarely reaches great heights. This makes it feel hotter than it is. Winters, by contrast, can be very cold with temperatures below freezing occurring fairly often. Memphis averages 5.7 inches of snow a year. There is plenty of rain to keep the region green, most falling in thunderstorms, but this does not mean there are not plenty of sunny days.
Peak Season:
May is festival month in Memphis and when most people travel to Memphis. The weather is warm and breezy, the mood is festive and music wafts through the air. Due to school vacations, summer is the busiest travel time in Memphis but it’s also when the temperatures are sweltering and humidity is high. If you travel to Memphis during the summer months, pack light and bring your patience — the city is hot and packed with tourists.
OffSeason:
Fall and winter months are generally unpredictable as it pertains to weather. Heavy rains can hit at any time and while it might not snow, the temperatures can get very cold. If you don’t mind packing a jacket and taking a risk, Memphis flights are cheaper and hotel rates are usually discounted during the winter months.
The best way to get around Memphis is by driving. Traffic can be very slow-moving, but the public transportation system’s buses are slow and infrequent. Memphis is easy to maneuver and parking is usually available. You need a driver’s license and have to be at least 21 years old to rent a car, but most rental agencies charge you more if you’re under 25. If you’d prefer to take public transportation, the downtown Main Street Trolley, which runs on a circular route, is the most useful. You can also take a taxi, but you’ll need to book ahead by phone.
Located just three miles (5km) from the central business district of the second-largest city in Tennessee, Memphis International Airport (MEM) is a regional hub serving the greater Memphis area. The airport is within easy distance of both Arkansas and Mississippi, making it a convenient alternative to several airports in the American South.
Flights to Memphis International Airport come mostly from other US cities, including Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Houston, Minneapolis, New York, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Denver, Boston, Miami, Charlotte and many other cities in the South. There are a few international flights to Cancun and Amsterdam with Delta.
The airport is small, but designed for efficiency. Travellers looking for designer shops and high-tech amenities may be left disappointed, but Memphis International Airport is a practical gateway to Tennessee, and just a short drive from popular Memphis attractions such as Graceland and Beale Street.
