Escape I-15 Gridlock With The New St. George to LA Flight

You Can Buy a Flight Right Now from SGU to LA 

Flights to Los Angeles are now available to purchase, but they do not begin until September 26th. This is a big deal as this quick hop to the coast will give you options to fly to LAX and from there all over the world. 

Maybe even more important, if you are visiting Los Angeles to go to the parks or beaches, you won’t have to sit in traffic starting around Barstow. This stretch of freeway is notoriously bad even when there isn’t an accident or construction to delay things. 

Stopped Traffic on the Freeway is Hazardous 

One hot June day several years ago, I was barreling down the freeway headed back to Southern Utah, when I came upon stopped traffic in front of me. I slammed the brakes and turned into the median like the cars ahead of me. I came within centimeters of the car’s bumper in front. 

I know others who were not so lucky. Skipping the drive from Las Vegas to LA is well worth the money. The flight will leave every day from the St. George Regional Airport at 11:30 a.m. and you’ll be in California at noon. That is awesome compared to the drive.

It will return from Los Angeles International at 1:30 p.m. and arrive in St. George at 4 p.m. SkyWest has made these flights available with United and you can book them right now. Sorry, Baker and Barstow, but it will be great to fly over rather than drive through.
