Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts

The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “How far in advance should I book?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from Nashville to Philadelphia cost?” are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights on this route over the past 12 months or more.

Where a route has too few bookings to fill every point in a chart, we borrow the shape of the curve from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on this route.

Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches on this route.

The chart “When is the best time of day to fly?” is calculated directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from Nashville to Philadelphia.

What is the typical flight duration from Nashville to Philadelphia?

The flight from Nashville to Philadelphia covers about 674 miles. Nonstop flights typically take about 2 hours and 5 minutes eastbound, while the return trip to Nashville takes about 2 hours and 10 minutes.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from Nashville to Philadelphia?

American Airlines and Southwest Airlines fly nonstop from Nashville to Philadelphia, with American operating 39 weekly flights (27 mainline plus 12 operated by PSA Airlines) and Southwest adding 20. Both carriers run daily service, so flights are available every day of the week.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the ground transportation options in Philadelphia?

Getting from Philadelphia International Airport to Center City is best done on SEPTA's Airport Regional Rail Line, which runs every 30 minutes and connects all terminals directly to downtown stations like Suburban and Jefferson; it's the most-used option for its speed and low cost. Taxis offer a flat $32 fare to the Center City zone, and rideshare pickup is available at Zone 7. Three SEPTA bus routes (37, 108, and 115) serve the airport for budget travelers, while rental car counters sit in a nearby facility with shuttle service. For door-to-door convenience, private car services and shared shuttles run throughout the region, with private transfers starting around $129–143.

When is the cheapest time to fly from Nashville to Philadelphia?

Fares from Nashville to Philadelphia are lowest in early January, around $248. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $249, followed by February ($268) and October ($278). December is the most expensive month at about $327, and fares peak in late December at about $344. The yearly average is $295. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.

How far in advance should I book tickets from Nashville to Philadelphia?

For Nashville to Philadelphia, the sweet spot is booking 2 to 5 weeks before departure, with the absolute lowest fares around 20 days out. Summer and holiday periods compress that window, so aim for 3 to 6 weeks ahead during peak travel times to avoid the steepest price jumps.
Methodology
Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Nashville to Philadelphia?

There are no nonstop red-eye flights from Nashville to Philadelphia. Overnight service on this route is available only via a connection, with American Airlines operating an overnight leg from Charlotte that departs at 10:35 PM and lands in Philadelphia at 12:17 AM — arriving in the early hours after midnight.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from Nashville to Philadelphia?

American Airlines and Southwest Airlines operate nonstop flights from Nashville to Philadelphia, with American offering up to 27 weekly flights and Southwest up to 20 weekly flights. American also operates some of its service as American Eagle, operated by PSA Airlines, adding 12 more weekly departures. Both airlines fly the route daily, with Southwest departures clustered in the morning and evening and American spread throughout the day.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

How reliable are on‑time arrivals on this route from Nashville to Philadelphia?

On-time arrival reliability on the Nashville to Philadelphia route is strongest on American Eagle flights operated by Republic, which land within 15 minutes of schedule 84.3% of the time with a 2.3% cancellation rate. Southwest follows at 75.8% on-time with no cancellations, then mainline American at 71.2% on-time and 1.7% cancellations. Piedmont (American Eagle) and Frontier trail at 65.7% and 64.4% on-time respectively, with cancellation rates of 2.9% and 1.0%.
Methodology
On-time arrival and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; a flight counts as on time when it arrives within 15 minutes of schedule. Carriers are ranked by arrival on-time rate on this route, and the carrier list itself comes from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI).

Which airport should I use in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia International Airport is the only commercial airport serving Philadelphia and is the one you should use. It is about 7 miles southwest of downtown and well connected to Center City by SEPTA rail.

How do I get to Nashville Intl Airport from the city center?

Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft pick up at the Ground Transportation Center on Level 1 of Terminal Garage 2, and a trip to the airport typically costs around $25–$35 from the city center. Taxis offer a flat rate of $30 plus $2 per extra passenger to the airport, while shared shuttles and hotel shuttles are also available. Driving yourself is straightforward via I-40, with short-term, long-term, economy, and valet parking on-site; the ride-share option is generally the most popular for its balance of speed and convenience, while the bus is the clear budget choice.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Nashville to Philadelphia?

American Airlines operates the most flights from Nashville to Philadelphia, using Airbus A319 and Airbus A320 aircraft, with additional American Eagle flights operated by PSA Airlines on Bombardier CRJ-900s. Southwest Airlines also serves the route nonstop with Boeing 737 family aircraft.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

Which airline alliances serve flights from Nashville to Philadelphia?

American Airlines (a oneworld member) and Southwest Airlines are the carriers currently scheduled non-stop between Nashville and Philadelphia, with American offering up to 39 weekly flights daily and Southwest 20 weekly flights daily.
