Quick answer
Should you fly into Nashville or Memphis for Tennessee?
Nashville, in almost every case. British Airways has flown Heathrow to Nashville since 2018 and Heathrow lists its Nashville departures in Terminal 5. Memphis sits at the opposite end of the state and this site prices it separately.
Tennessee is long — the two cities are roughly 200 miles apart with nothing much between them — so arriving at the wrong end is a three-hour drive, not a transfer.
Schedules change and we confirm the operating carrier on your dates. Our guide fare is £1,849 return from Birmingham (BHX), checked.
Decide on the address you are going to, not the fare. On this pair the wrong arrival costs a day, and a day is worth more than the gap.

Starting prices by UK departure airport
Starting prices for each UK departure. Your airline and your exact fare are confirmed on your quote.
Tennessee has two cities with a case for your arrival and they are three hours apart by road. Getting that choice right matters more here than almost anything else.
Nashville or Memphis — the state is longer than it looks
Nashville sits in the middle of the state; Memphis is on its far western edge on the Mississippi. Roughly 200 miles separate them, and the drive is genuinely most of a working day once you add a rental car and the airport at either end.
The two are also different kinds of trip. Nashville's inbound traffic is heavily music, healthcare and corporate; Memphis is logistics, the Delta and a different cultural draw entirely. If your reason for travelling has a postcode, that postcode decides the airport.
Who flies to Nashville, and from where
British Airways has flown Heathrow to Nashville since 2018, and Heathrow lists its Nashville departures in Terminal 5. It is a single-carrier, single-London-airport route, which is worth knowing because it changes what flexibility looks like.
On a route with several operators, a date that does not work can often be solved by switching airline. Here it cannot: if the departure does not suit, the alternative is a connection through another US gateway rather than a different nonstop. That is not a problem — it is simply the shape of the route, and it means the conversation is about dates and connections rather than carriers.
Schedules change. We confirm the carrier and the pattern on your dates rather than treating a route that has run since 2018 as a promise about a particular week.
Our cheapest UK departure is not the one the nonstop leaves from
Business class to Nashville is £1,849 return from Birmingham (BHX), checked, with first class indicatively from £2,869.
the Heathrow fare sits above it — and Heathrow is where the only nonstop leaves. On a single-carrier route that gap almost always means the cheaper departure is a connecting itinerary through another US airport, with a second sector at the end.
Whether that is worth it depends on where you live and how much a connection costs you in a day. The departure board shows the current ladder; Ask us which departures are the nonstop before choosing on price alone.
Nashville International (BNA), and the drive at the far end
The fare prices to Nashville International Airport (BNA), a short distance south-east of downtown. It is one airport serving one metropolitan area, so there is no second-airport decision to make here.
What does catch people out is the onward drive. A great deal of what draws UK visitors to this part of Tennessee — the distilleries, the state parks, the Smokies — is one to three hours from the airport. If your itinerary is touring rather than city-based, the arrival time matters more than usual, because a late landing costs you a driving day.
Before you book a Nashville ticket
- Confirm the arrival is BNA and not MEM at the other end of the state.
- Ask whether your fare is the Heathrow nonstop or a connection through another US airport.
- If your itinerary is a driving tour, check what time you actually land.
- British Airways is Heathrow Terminal 5 for this route, so a connection from a regional BA flight usually stays in the same terminals.
- Ask what the fare rules allow if a date has to move — on a single-carrier route there is less room to switch.
Nashville and Memphis are opposite ends of Tennessee and different kinds of trip. Our guide to business class across the United States puts both in context.
