Which airport should I fly into?

Answer

You have a few options depending on flight availability and how much driving you’re comfortable with: Prescott Regional Airport (PRC) 15–20 minutes to Chino Valley Closest airport with limited flights. Rental cars available (reserve early). Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) ~2–2.5 hour drive Best option for nonstop and international flights. Expect a scenic but longer drive north.

Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (FLG) ~1.5–2 hour drive Small airport with limited routes and beautiful mountain views.
