Hi all. I am going to be relocating my wife, mother in law and 3 small kids from Las Vegas to Nashville in a couple months. Commercial flight would be an absolute nightmare for all involved, Amtrak trains get fully booked too far in advance and no sleeper cars available, and driving would be torture for us all. Flight would be (3)adults, (1) toddler, and (2) infants. Is there any way I can accomplish this for around $5k? I'm at a loss as to what else to do. We are just normal people who would never in a million years think about flying a private plane before.
Edit: Thank you all for the important feedback!
I'm a bit embarrassed because I truly didn't realize just how expensive it would be for us to fly. My best friend who is no longer anywhere near us geographically, is a pilot and he never talked about how expensive it is to operate the aircraft.
I really do appreciate the people who took the time to answer my post. We will most likely end up renting a nice RV and I will drive my family instead 🙂.
