What moves the price
Las Vegas is two hours behind Dallas for most of the year.
Dates matter more than most people expect. CES in January fills the private terminals.
And a jet that has to fly empty to pick you up costs more than one already sitting at Love Field.
What isn't in the hourly rate
What tends to appear on the final invoice:
- Handling, parking and landing fees charged by the terminals at Love Field and Harry Reid.
- Crew hotel and per diem if the aircraft waits for you in Las Vegas.
A good broker will give you the all-in figure without being asked twice. Every fee is explained in our guide to charter fees.

Which airports to use
Leaving Dallas

- Henderson Executive (HND), about 10 miles from the Strip in a straight line. South of the Strip. A quieter alternative when Harry Reid is busy.
- North Las Vegas (VGT), about 7 miles from the Strip in a straight line. Northwest of downtown. Mostly smaller aircraft.
Choosing the right aircraft
Unless you're a big group or carrying a lot, a light jet is enough. Paying for more cabin on this distance is a choice, not a need.
Good to know on this route
- Big fight nights and the Grand Prix in November are the most expensive times to fly in.
- Henderson Executive is a quieter alternative to Harry Reid on busy weekends.
- Big fight nights cause short spikes.
Ways to bring the price down
- Fly midweek: Tuesday to Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Fridays and Sundays.
- Look for empty legs: repositioning flights sold at a discount. The timing is fixed and they can disappear at short notice.
- Book peak dates early: for holidays and big events, aircraft run out and prices climb in the last two weeks.
- Be open on airports: a nearby airport sometimes has a cheaper aircraft available.
