Timezone note
Phoenix is 1 hour ahead of Los Angeles during standard time. During daylight saving time both cities are on the same clock, as Arizona does not observe DST.
About this route
Los Angeles to Phoenix is a high-frequency short-haul route connecting Southern California with the rapidly growing Valley of the Sun. American Airlines dominates Phoenix Sky Harbor as a hub, and multiple competitors ensure strong fare competition on this corridor.
Arizona's refusal to observe daylight saving time creates a confusing timezone situation — for half the year Phoenix and LA are on the same clock, and for the other half Phoenix is an hour ahead. Landing alerts cut through the confusion and tell you exactly when the plane is on the ground.
