Flight Suggestions

We've gotten a few questions about the best airport to use for travel to Palm Springs so we figured posting our knowledge here would be a good way to go!



Palm Springs

First choice would definitely be Palm Springs. Takes the rental car totally out of the equation and you will completely avoid all traffic coming from LA, Orange County, and San Diego. Plus it's a historic, mid-century building! The downside is it's a small regional airport with a more limited flight schedule.

We've checked online and noticed that there are a number of flights that fly to LAX first and then out to PSP. This (at first) may seem silly and you might think, well we'll just fly to LA, get a car and drive out! We can assure you that even with an hour or so layover, flying from LA to the desert is faster. Especially if you're planning to drive east anytime after 2 pm. 35 minutes in the air vs. up to 4 hours (yes, it's taken us this long before) on the 10, in traffic.

Ontario

A most excellent option! Flying in to Ontario means you land 60 miles east of LA and you skip most of the traffic you'll encounter getting through downtown and the east LA communities. It's still another 70 miles to Palm springs from Ontario, but most of these will be traffic-free. Unless you land in the late afternoon on Friday.

Hotel Reservations

If you haven't made reservations in palm springs, but are planning to stay the night, we strongly suggest getting on that asap! There are a number of other weddings in town the same weekend, so some hotels are already full.

There are still rooms available at the Colony Palms, if you'd prefer to stay within crawling distance of the big fiesta. If you'd like to make reservations there, you need to call the hotel directly.

Don't forget to mention our wedding or they'll tell you the hotel is full.

There are a bunch of other hotel options listed on our site, and right here in the column.

We added this little blog to our site to keep you updated on things going on over the wedding weekend. Plus our actual website doesn't match our invitations exactly, and we CAN'T have that. We're super excited to see you all in Palm Springs! Check back often for important things you need to know, kay?
