Route Briefing: Las Vegas to Palm Springs
At just 1 hour and 5 minutes over 175 miles, the hop from Las Vegas to Palm Springs is one of the shortest desert flights in the Southwest. Southwest and JSX provide quick and easy flights into Palm Springs International Airport (PSP).
Palm Springs is famous for its mid-century modern architecture, mountain backdrops, and relaxing poolside lifestyle. Tour iconic celebrity homes in Vista Las Palmas, take the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway up Mount San Jacinto for sweeping desert views, and explore the boutique shops and art galleries along Palm Canyon Drive. A morning day trip to Joshua Tree National Park offers surreal desert landscapes and world-class stargazing.
