A turbine nozzle segment includes at least one hollow airfoil extending radially between radially outer and inner band segments, a clockwise open hook on a clockwise end at an aft end of the outer band segment, and counter-clockwise open hook on a counter-clockwise end at the aft end of the outer band segments. An exemplary embodiment of the turbine nozzle segment includes a load stop extending radially outwardly from the outer band segment. At least one aftwardly facing load face is at the aft end of the nozzle segment at the outer band segment. The clockwise open hook is C-shaped and the counter-clockwise open hook is a shiplap hook. Another embodiment of the turbine nozzle segment has only one hollow airfoil with an airfoil wall surrounding a bifurcated cavity divided into forward and aft cavities by a bifurcating rib extending between pressure and suction sides of the airfoil wall.
