    I suspect Memphis is your best bet for commercial airline.

    How big of plane are you planning on flying in on? Dyersburg is only about 20 or 30 minuites from there. They can handle some pretty big planes. I have flown in there several times. Dyersburg Municipal airport, Dyersburg Tenn.

    memphis will be about 2 -2.5 hours from there. I guess that is about your best bet. Cheaper to fly nashville maybe or little rock but then your out 3.5 hours.

    I can drive from Memphis to the Illinois border in 2 1/2 hours, so that is not right. One of my nephews lives just east of Memphis so I do this often enough.

    Was just looking at my copy of a Rand McNally road map and see it shows 2 hr 43 min from Cairo to Memphis. Not bad.
