How to Get to Page, Arizona

Page looks remote on a map, out on a mesa in the far north of Arizona. It is easier to reach than it looks. There are really two ways in: fly into the little airport in town, or fly into a bigger city and drive. Here is the honest version of each.

Option 1: Fly straight into Page

Page has its own airport, Page Municipal (PGA), about 10 to 15 minutes from downtown. Contour Airlines is the only carrier flying in, and it runs about eight flights a week from Phoenix. On July 2, 2026 it added a Las Vegas nonstop, four days a week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. There is also a seasonal Denver route, and seasonal really does mean seasonal: it is not flying most of the year, and Contour's own Page destination page does not currently list it. If Denver is your plan, check the dates on contourairlines.com before you build anything around it rather than assuming it will be there.

The upside is obvious. You land, and you are basically here. No four-hour drive at the end of a travel day. If the schedule and price work for your dates, this is the easiest way to reach Page, full stop.

The catch is that it is a small airport with limited flights, so seats can be pricey and times are not always flexible. Check it first anyway. When it lines up, nothing else comes close for convenience.

Option 2: Fly into a bigger city and drive

If the Page flights do not fit, you fly into a larger airport and drive in. The drive is part of the trip out here, and every one of these routes is beautiful.

• Phoenix (PHX): about 4.5 to 5 hours. The most flights and usually the best prices. The best all-around choice if you are flying in from far away.

• Las Vegas (LAS): about 4 to 4.5 hours. Great if you are building a wider Southwest loop with Zion or the Grand Canyon.

• Flagstaff (FLG): about 2 to 2.5 hours. The closest mid-size airport, and a nice pairing with Sedona and the Grand Canyon.

• Salt Lake City (SLC): about 5 hours. A scenic drive down through southern Utah if you are coming from the north.

Driving in on a road trip

A lot of people reach Page as part of a bigger loop, and it makes a perfect anchor for one. Common drive times: Zion about 2 hours, the Grand Canyon South Rim about 2.5 hours, Monument Valley about 2 to 2.5 hours, Bryce Canyon about 2.5 hours.

Two small tips for the drive. Fill the tank when you can, because stretches out here are long and empty. And remember Arizona does not do daylight saving time, so your phone clock may jump around as you cross state and reservation lines. Check your tour time the night before.

So which should you pick?

Here is the simple rule. If getting to Antelope Canyon is the whole point of your trip, book your canyon tour first, then pick the airport that fits that morning. The canyon slots are guided-only and the good ones sell out, so build around the tour, not the flight.

Beyond that: pick Phoenix for the most options and best fares, Page Municipal if the schedule works and you want zero drive, and Las Vegas, Flagstaff, or Salt Lake City if you are stitching together a longer road trip.
