Seems Fayetteville doesn't have much of an airport. Kayak doesn't even recognize them.

Any suggestions in best way to travel besides driving 16 hours

Where are you coming from? XNA is pretty damn small. Tulsa or LR are other options

NW regional is served by several airlines, plus, you don't think Jerry Jones would allow that to happen do you? he's got to get his G650 up in there for the games

XNA is the airport, it's outside of Bentonville, not in Fayetteville (20min drive).

The airport is small but very nice, they added an entire "wing" about 2 years ago. It may be a little expensive, since so much of the flights are Walmart oriented.

Don't fly into Tulsa unless you want to rent a car and then drive 2 hours.

I see you are in BR...we drive back home to BR with 3 kids and it only takes us 12hrs (potty breaks). Adults can do it in 10.5-11.

XNA is a good airport---just a little small. 20 minute drive to Fayetteville. More than adequate motel arrangements available.

XNA is not a bad airport, lotsa connections (DFW, ATL, IAH should work) for flights from BR. Airport is a short drive from FYV. There is a good supply of hotels along the Fayetteville/Springdale/Bentonville corridor. The stadium is not bad if'n you can tolerate the swine fans. Food around NWA is decent. It's a better location than Little Rock. Come on up and watch the Hog Roast!!!

Didn't see all the others...everything everyone else said is spot on. You have 3 routes to from BR... American with stop in Dallas, United with stop in Houston, or Delta with stop in Atlanta...they are all around 400-450 round trip. American is main carrier out of XNA...if they don't fill a flight they will cancel so I caution the use of American.

XNA had been mentioned plenty.

Southwest can fly you into Little Rock and you can rent a car for a beautiful drive.

Branson's airport use to get Southwest flights but that's done now. We're an hour and 45 minutes from the stadium.

Springfield is 45 min north of Branson and you can check their flights.
