Rideshare: $20–$35 Uber/Lyft to Bentonville, Rogers, or Fayetteville hotels (XNA sits in Highfill, AR, roughly 10–17 miles from the region's cities). Uber and Lyft pick up at the designated rideshare zone on the arrivals/lower level — follow the in-app pin rather than the street signs, as pickup spots at XNA are managed through the apps.
Hotel shuttles: Call your hotel from baggage claim to request pickup — XNA is a small single-terminal airport with no dedicated hotel courtesy-phone bank, so a direct call works best. Wingate by Wyndham's free shuttle (about 1 mile away) runs roughly 4:30am–midnight; hotels farther out run shuttles by request or on a set loop, so confirm timing when you call.
Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA) is approximately 12 miles from Bentonville. That translates to roughly 20–40 minutes by car or rideshare, depending on traffic. If you have an early morning flight and want to cut your commute to near-zero, an airport-area hotel with a free shuttle beats the drive in most situations — especially when you factor in parking costs.

Airport hotels near XNA fill fastest around major holidays, long weekends, and large local events — rates can jump 40–80% in the days before high-demand dates. As a general rule, 2–4 weeks in advance gives you a solid range of options at reasonable prices. For summer travel (June through August) and the Thanksgiving/Christmas window, booking 6–8 weeks out is worth the extra planning.
For same-night stays — the kind you need after a diverted or badly delayed flight — airport hotels are typically the fastest to book and closest to the exit. Having the hotel app downloaded before you travel means you can secure a room before you even reach baggage claim. Rates for same-night walk-in bookings are almost always higher than advance reservations.
Midweek nights (Tuesday and Wednesday) at airport hotels near XNA are reliably cheaper than weekend nights — if your itinerary is flexible, shifting an overnight stay by a day or two can save $30–$70 per night.
