Looking for a getaway from Memphis that won't break the bank? Here are the cheapest flights you can get out of Memphis in the month of July.
If you've lived in Memphis for any length of time, you know that one of the biggest challenges of traveling from here is the steep price of flights out of the Memphis Airport. In the past, I've driven to Little Rock, Nashville, and even Atlanta to get a decent flight. Well I'm here to tell you that if you're not picky about where you're going or when you're leaving, you can catch a roundtrip flight out of Memphis next month for under $100!
So here's the deal. You can always get the best prices if you're flexible with your travel dates. Certain airlines only have non-stop flights between specific cities on limited days of the week, so you have to be willing and able to fly on those days. If you're up for an adventure that's easy on the wallet, you've come to the right place. I've done the research, and here are the best flight deals out of Memphis during the month of July.
