Flight Reservations

The Division of Aeronautics operates two passenger aircraft that can transport any state employees as they travel for state business.

Booking a flight with the Division of Aeronautics can be a cost-effective means of attending an event, conducting a site visit, or coordinating a meeting between remote partners.

There is no need to book through state travel and our pilots can be contacted directly to meet your specific travel itineraries.

We are able to fly directly to many cities and towns in the state and offer time savings that can not be matched by other travel methods.

Please consider us as an option as you plan for your next trip!

User Reviews

Recently my team utilized the Fly Utah program to attend meetings in Moab and Blanding in southeastern Utah. This program is a game changer for us as we strive to meet with our agency customers on a frequent basis. We were able to be more productive with our work week and save substantial costs on travel by utilizing Fly Utah. Historically, our team would require at least two days for this identical trip that would shorten our productivity and availability time in Salt Lake, require a vehicle, hotel rooms and per diem costs. The ability to consolidate the trip into one day also allows us to spend more time with our families. Additionally, the flight staff were professional and friendly, the reservation process was very simple, parking was very simple, the aircraft was well maintained, safe and comfortable and no TSA! Fly Utah is a tremendous asset for us and we plan to utilize the service frequently!

I flew to Cedar with Greg and John for the first time on Wednesday.  I was able to park my car for free and get right on the plane to leave, no going through TSA.  The plane is nice and comfortable.  Greg and John are great pilots and very friendly.  They were able to take me safely through a storm on the way from Cedar.  It was so nice to leave and be home the same day.  I didn’t have to drive for several hours to get to my destination and then be away from home for several days.  The price for my flight was much less than the cost of gas and hotel stays.  I highly recommend using this program!

There was no time waiting at the airport prior to commercial flights. We were also able to use the time on the plane for pre-meeting planning and post meeting strategizing.

What about ground transportation when I land?

All the cities we serve have some form of ground transportation. Between rental cars, taxi services, and Uber/Lyft there are always ways of getting around once you arrive. Please see here for a list of ground transportation options for each airport.

Where do I tell people to pick me up at each airport?

Please see our list of airport addresses to share with your counterparts so they can meet you after landing. Departure and approximate arrival times are listed at the top of this page.

How do I justify flying instead of driving?

It is actually less expensive to fly! See here for a list of cost comparisons for each city. All travel estimates are calculated using the average hotel costs for state travelers and mileage pricing for Utah state vehicles. Air travel also saves on wages and overtime paid for the additional drive time required for ground travel.

Can we travel out of state?

The short answer is: Yes! The Utah Division of Aeronautics is not responsible for approving out-of-state travel for your team and that will need to be resolved internally, but we are happy to take you anywhere you need to go.
