All Things Travel

The Wedding Website of Jessica Krantz and Nicholas Gutierrez
Flight options, hotel blocks, airbnb recommendations and more for our out-of town guests. Consider booking as early as possible. It'll save you time, money and a HUGE headache. Montana's now a major tourist destination (...thanks Yellowstone) and accommodations sell out fast! Car Bookings/Rentals should also be reserved as soon as possible. Most cars can be rented from Glacier Airport and/or through Costco. We encourage you to do so as soon as possible, in the event that there is another car shortage in 2023. Note: Uber and Lyft are not reliable transportation methods in the valley. Try to avoid these hotels as they're on the other side of town, and/or not in the best location: Best Western Plus Flathead Lake, Hilton Garden Inn, Econo Lodge, Americans Best Value Inn, Motel 6 and Super 8.

Flight

GLACIER PARK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (FCA)

Glacier International offers direct flights from San Diego (seasonally), San Francisco Bay Area, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Huston, Dallas, and Denver, Co. Its mainly serviced by Delta/Sky West, United, Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air and Allegiant Airlines. Glacier International is located on the boarder of Kalispell and Whitefish. It's centrally located to all our wedding events. You can rent a car from Avis, Alamo, Thrifty, Enterprise and Dollar Car from this location. We highly recommended that you BOOK as early as possible, as flights, hotels and car rentals can sell out fast. Have questions? Feel free to ask.

Flight

MISSOULA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (MSO)

MISSOULA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT:  Missoula International Airport Offers nonstop flights to 14 major U.S. cities. It is mainly serviced by five airlines that offer direct flights from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoneix, and Las Vegas. This airpot is frequently cheaper, but it's a (2) hour drive to Kalispell/Whitefish. The drive is stunning though, paralleling the Mission Mountain Range and gives an intimate view of Flathead Lake. This is a great option if you fly in a few days early, maybe not so much the night before. You can rent a car from this location, and/or from the app "TURO". We highly recommended that you BOOK as early as possible, as flights, hotels and car rentals can sell out fast. Have questions? Feel free to ask.

Travel Note

Long Distance Driving

Driving to Montana from San Diego is an endearing 20 hour drive. From Vegas it's about 14 hours. It's primarily a straight shot from San Diego/Vegas up the I-15 to the I-90 in Butte, Montana. The I-90 passes through the city of Missoula 115 miles south of Kalispell. From Missoula, you take U.S. 93 which heads north to Kalispell, paralleling the impressive Mission Mountain Range and the beautiful shores of Flathead Lake, home to the famous Flathead Lake Monster! Here are the routes I would consider taking: Route 1: SD > Salt Lake (10 hrs); Salt Lake > Kalispell (9 hrs) Route 2: SD > Vegas (6 hrs); Vegas > Salt Lake (5 hrs); Salt Lake > Kalispell (9 hrs) Route 3: SD > Vegas (6 hrs) ; Vegas > Idaho Falls (8 hrs); Idaho Falls> Kalispell (6 hrs)
