Timezone note
Phoenix is 1 hour ahead of Las Vegas in winter (MST vs PST), but aligned in summer when Nevada observes daylight saving time.
About this route
Las Vegas to Phoenix is one of the shortest commercial routes in the Southwest, connecting two desert metropolises separated by just 300 miles. The flight barely has time to reach cruising altitude before beginning its descent. Southwest, Spirit, and Frontier compete on price for travelers who prefer a quick hop over the 4.5-hour drive through the Mojave.
Both airports handle desert heat well, though summer temperatures above 120°F in Phoenix have historically restricted takeoffs. The seasonal timezone shift — Arizona doesn't observe daylight saving time — adds confusion for this short flight. Landing alerts are practical for coordinating pickups on a flight so brief that even a 10-minute delay is proportionally large.
