The New York to Dallas route covers roughly 1,370 miles and takes about 3h 45m nonstop. 3 airlines compete on it — American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Spirit Airlines — which keeps fares moving and makes it worth comparing carriers rather than defaulting to the one you usually fly.

Dallas pairs a serious arts district — the largest contiguous one in the country — with the history, the steakhouses and the sports culture people expect from Texas.
Fort Worth sits 30 miles west and is worth its own day: the Stockyards, the cattle drive, and a museum district that punches far above the city's size.
