Flights

All the major airlines operate frequent service from their hub cities and, as a whole, offer one-stop connecting flights from virtually every city in the country. In addition to nonstop service from the usual hub cities (e.g., Atlanta, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Minneapolis, Newark, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, San Francisco), nonstop service is offered to many other destinations, sometimes by smaller airlines. Southwest remains the dominant airline (carrying nearly double the number of passengers as its closest competitor, US Airways, thanks to its 2006 merger with America West), and it offers frequent flights to many cities in the South and West, including San Diego, Los Angeles, Oakland, Seattle, Salt Lake, Albuquerque, and Phoenix. Southwest service to San Francisco is expected to be added at some point in 2007. Be sure to check the rates of the other discount airlines that serve Las Vegas, such as AirTran, jetBlue, Midwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, and Ted.
