Flights from Sky Harbor Intl to Los Angeles: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from Sky Harbor Intl to Los Angeles 
Verified travelerFlew with American AirlinesPHX-LAXJan 2025
Southwest seems to board and unload about as smooth as any airline - carry on items seem to work as smooth as any airline I have used. Southwest also does not charge to check bags which seems to encourage people to check bags instead of bring an enormous carry on item that does not fit well in the cabin.
KFlew with SouthwestPHX-LAXMay 2024
Book with a long gap if you have a connection on another airline. My flight from Phoenix was only 1 hr long but there was an over 2 hr delay in boarding. Luckily I allowed a 6 hour gap between flights for my other flight leaving overseas or I would have missed it. Many people like me fly one flight to LA which has a lot more international departures because it’s a lot cheaper to break the flights up than to book them together . So it’s important that flights are somewhat on time especially between different flights not connected with one booking.
