Flights to Phoenix

A flight from London to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport takes approximately 10 hours and 30 minutes.

The sunshine in Phoenix attracts the ‘snowbirds’ – visitors from northern states in the US seeking warmer weather during the snowy winter months. This means the city gets busy from November to April, and prices for everything from flights to hotels can be higher. The soaring temperatures in the summer often mean fewer visitors, so it can be a more affordable time to visit if you’re trying to save. It’s best to take a look at our low fare finder to find the cheapest time of year to visit Phoenix.

You can adjust your trip to Phoenix to fit your budget. Set up for a week or two in a casita – a separate guest house on a homeowner’s land – rather than in a hotel to save a few dollars, and combine your trip with a mix of paid-for entertainment and free activities. Camelback Mountain is one of the USA’s best spots for experienced hikers and it won’t cost you anything to walk the trail. Meanwhile, some of Phoenix’s museums offer free entry or reduced fees on certain days, including the Heard Museum, the Phoenix Art Museum, and the Children’s Museum of Phoenix.

You can hop in a taxi to reach Phoenix’s downtown area, or make use of the Valley Metro system, which offers transport via rail, streetcar and bus. Once you’re in the city centre, there are lots of public transport options to get you from A to B.

Phoenix lines up gorgeous weather all year round, so you can enjoy patio drinks, days lounging by the swimming pool and games of golf on the city’s pristine courses whenever you visit. Catch the cacti and wildflowers blooming in the desert during the spring, and head to the Grand Canyon if you want to see the Arizona’s northern stretch – it’s day-tripping distance from Phoenix.

You can book a hand baggage-only ticket or make the most of our generous baggage allowance. If you choose economy standard or one of our British Airways Holidays’ packages, each passenger can check in a bag weighing up to 23kg – in addition to a handbag, laptop case or other small bag. Families travelling in any cabin with younger children can also check in one car seat and one fully collapsible pushchair. Read more about baggage allowances for children.

If you’re flying in our business cabin, you can check in two bags weighing up to 32kg each. Read our baggage guide for full details.

Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit the USA. However, you will need an ESTA, which permits travel to the US for 90 days or less. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of the listed areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel. You can find out more about visa requirements for all the countries we fly to at the IATA Travel Centre.
