What DAL to PHX looks like
The DAL to PHX sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Dallas DAL to Phoenix PHX is a medium haul sector of 1,412 km by great circle, flown nonstop 7.1 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,412 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 18m.
Dallas DAL is a major hub in the network held here, 190 scheduled destinations and 272.1 departures a day. Phoenix PHX has 172 destinations and 603.4 departures a day.
Phoenix runs one hour behind of Dallas in January and 2 hours behind in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits inside the Americas, a corridor where the site already publishes 13 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on DAL to PHX from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| DAL to PHX | 7.14 | 50 | NetJets Aviation, Southwest Airlines |
| PHX to DAL | 0.14 | 1 | none held |
Two carriers hold the sector, NetJets Aviation and Southwest Airlines, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
The two directions are not level: DAL to PHX runs 7.1 times a day, the return runs about once a week, and a round trip has to be planned around the thinner of the two.
At 7.1 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 51 departures a week on DAL to PHX, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 2h 18m block time on DAL to PHX. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to DAL | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At DAL before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| DAL to PHX in the air, estimated | 138 min | 6h 48m |
| Formalities at PHX | 90 min | 8h 18m |
| Delivery run in Phoenix | 45 min | 9h 03m |
| Door to door | 543 min | 9h 03m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for DAL to PHX is 9h 03m.
A courier who leaves Dallas at 09:00 local is on the ground in Phoenix at about 10:18 local and at the door by 12:33 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Phoenix, the last useful departure from Dallas is around 14:27 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 41 of them join DAL to PHX.
| Connecting at | DAL to hub, flights a day | Hub to PHX, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| El Paso ELP | 6 | 7.57 | 1,460 | 3h 58m |
| Albuquerque ABQ | 4.86 | 9.29 | 1,460 | 3h 58m |
| Dallas DFW | 0.71 | 13.71 | 1,412 | 4h 19m |
| Houston HOU | 16.43 | 5.86 | 2,025 | 4h 55m |
| Denver DEN | 7.71 | 25.57 | 2,016 | 5h 04m |
| Kansas City MCI | 5.57 | 6.29 | 2,420 | 5h 15m |
With 7.1 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
41 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is El Paso ELP, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 6 times a day.
Through ELP the routing covers 1,460 km against the 1,412 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 58m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 40m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Albuquerque ABQ at 3h 58m and Dallas DFW at 4h 19m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Dallas, Dallas DFW is 18 km away by great circle and carries 287 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DAL to PHX in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
