Book a Flight to Flagstaff

Land at the doorstep to the Grand Canyon by flying to Flagstaff and seeing the wonders of this rich, untouched wilderness. Flagstaff is less than an hour’s away from the major national and international airport at Phoenix. Take a connecting flight from Phoenix to explore the Grand Canyon as well as some of Flagstaff’s landmarks and rich native American culture.

Grab a window-seat on your flight and see the prairies, rolling mountains and dramatic cliff formations of the desolate Arizona landscape. Head over the Apache-Sitgreaves and Prescott National forests on your way to or from Phoenix and see the lush foliage contrasting with the barren nature of the desert.

When to Fly to Flagstaff

Despite the scorching-hot temperatures in the summer months, Flagstaff has a surprisingly diverse climate, with May to June and the autumn months probably being the most comfortable times to visit. Winters can often see several covers of snow, while humidity brings rainfall during August and September.

Flagstaff Pulliam Airport

Just five miles south of the city, Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is a quiet airport catering to around 125,000 passengers per year. Parking is free, while the passenger terminal has a cafe and internet access throughout.

Fly direct to Phoenix from destinations throughout Europe and North America.

Explore Flagstaff

After leaving your flight to Flagstaff, hire a car from the rental counters at Flagstaff Pulliam or book a spot on one of the shuttle buses that serve the airport and make the short trip to town. Flagstaff was a city that blossomed out of the developing railroad and timber industries in the 19th century, and it still retains much of the character from those formative years.

Head to the old town in the heart of Flagstaff and explore the collection of shops and restaurants, which often have a sense of Wild West nostalgia. It’s impossible to escape the presence of the legendary Route 66 either, with the quintessential American highway running through the centre of Flagstaff.
