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 New York City to Memphis 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 New York City to Memphis.
What is the typical flight duration from New York City to Memphis?
The flight from New York City to Memphis covers about 945 miles. Nonstop flights typically take 3 hours and 3 minutes outbound, while the return leg is about 2 hours and 45 minutes — slightly shorter. The difference is less than twenty minutes, so the typical outbound time is the figure to use.
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 New York City to Memphis?
Yes, there are non-stop flights from New York City to Memphis. Delta Air Lines and American Airlines fly daily from LaGuardia, with up to 27 weekly flights and departures from around 8:45 AM to 8:17 PM, and United Airlines flies daily from Newark with 14 weekly flights departing around 1:29 PM and 9:23 PM. Delta also adds a weekday-only departure from LaGuardia on Mondays through Fridays. These are the airlines currently scheduled non-stop on this route.
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 Memphis?
Getting from Memphis International Airport to downtown is straightforward, with taxis, rideshares like Uber, hotel shuttles, and rental cars all available from the terminal’s Ground Transportation Center. Rideshare and taxis are the most popular choice for most travelers, offering a quick 15–20 minute ride into the city center. MATA Route 28 provides public bus service to the William Hudson Transit Center downtown, though it is slower and less convenient than a private car. Rental car counters are in a separate Rental Car Center reachable by shuttle, making driving a solid option for exploring beyond downtown. For the fastest door-to-door trip, rideshare or a private transfer is your best bet.

When is the cheapest time to fly from New York City to Memphis?
Fares from New York City to Memphis are lowest in late January, around $318. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $323, followed by February ($333) and September ($357). December is the most expensive month at about $414, and fares peak in late December at about $441. The yearly average is $371. 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 New York City to Memphis?
Book about 6 weeks before departure for the best fares from New York City to Memphis, around $295. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $405, $110 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $463. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
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 New York City to Memphis?
No overnight or red-eye flights operate from New York City to Memphis — neither nonstop nor as a connecting itinerary with an overnight long leg.
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 New York City to Memphis?

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.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from New York City to Memphis?

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.
