Route overview

Private flights from Los Angeles to Las Vegas

The highest-frequency short-hop private route in the country, linking LA's entertainment industry with Las Vegas for shows, meetings, and weekend getaways.

Private flights from Los Angeles to Las Vegas take about an hour nonstop aboard a turboprop or very light jet, making this one of the quickest ways to cover the distance without the drive or airport lines. The route connects Van Nuys, the world's busiest general aviation airport, with Harry Reid International just minutes from the Strip.

Given the short flight time, many travelers use this route for same-day round trips tied to entertainment bookings, meetings, or weekend plans. Your charter advisor can help time departures to match show schedules or events on either end.
