Flights to Phoenix: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew to Phoenix 
JosephFlew with American Airlines-Aug 2026
Pay attention and look out for last minute gate and terminal changes. I got stung by that, today’s flight changed gates and terminals four times.
JerryFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2026
Bring your own entertainment or download a movie on your computer/tablet ahead of time.
AdrianaFlew with American Airlines-Apr 2026
Check on your flight status often, as things can change and you may not be notified promptly
LoriFlew with American Airlines-Jan 2026
If you have a rollerboard, at least 50% of the time it won't fit in the overhead (regional jet) and have to be gate checked. I travel with a half size bag if i am spending no more than 4 days away and it fits in the overhead. That saves a lot of time when you have a connection and don't have to wait for your bag.
Verified travelerFlew with Frontier-Jun 2025
Wish I had known the seats were so uncomfortable. Wish I had known checked bags and carry on bags were 75 each. Wish I didn't have to wait so long in line with only one clerk working. Wish I had known we were going to have to take a bus from the gate to our airplane. Wish I had known the seat space is smaller than any other airline I have flown. I do not recommend Frontier.
KimFlew with American Airlines-May 2025
Bring something to eat especially if you are connecting flights. Biscuits do not cut it, if you get restless make sure you have something to help such as an essential oils that help calm muscles or restless legs.
Verified travelerFlew with Delta-Mar 2025
Wear something warm on the plane they keep it cool
KateFlew with Frontier-Dec 2024
Pack a snack food and airport is very expensive. Bring an empty water bottle. There are lots of filling stations. Delays seem to happen frequently be flexible and kind. You’ll get to where you’re going.
BrandonFlew with American Airlines-Jan 2025
I didn’t check any bags, but Phoenix is very big so be prepared to walk that airport.
JanieFlew with SWISS-Feb 2025
I think you should prebook food or bring your own food.
MelissaFlew with American Airlines-Jun 2024
Make sure you have extended time if you are connecting in Phoenix. The terminals are at least a 15/20 minute walk between each other.
StephanyFlew with Frontier-Mar 2024
Don't buy anything at the airport. Many people paid 100 dollars extra cause they couldn't fit it in their luggage. Or carry on or purse or backpack.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jan 2024
If you need to keep your blood sugar up, bring your own snacks or order a meal ahead of time.
