Grand Canyon Travel by Air

South Rim
Air Service
Commercial air carriers serve Las Vegas, Nevada, Phoenix and Flagstaff, Arizona.

There is limited air service into the Grand Canyon Airport (10 miles / 16 km south of the park) from Las Vegas and elsewhere. All scenic air tours are based outside of Grand Canyon National Park. Both fixed-wing and helicopter tours of the Grand Canyon region are offered daily.

For those of you planning on flying your plane to the Grand Canyon Airport, the Arizona Department of Transporation has airport information at: http://gcr1.com/5010web/airport.cfm?Site=GCN
 
North Rim
There is no longer an airstrip on the North Rim of the park. (that means that the North Rim village may only be reached by road.)

A Grand Canyon vacation is one big scenic road trip. Explore our sample routes and scenic drives here.
