Scottsdale to Los Cabos
Land's End, the Sea of Cortez, and the most exclusive resort corridor in Mexico.
Los Cabos is the premier international destination for Scottsdale and Phoenix private aviation clients. The combination of Sonoran Desert landscape, Sea of Cortez, and world-class resort infrastructure makes it a natural extension of the Arizona luxury market.
Private jet charter from Scottsdale to Los Cabos is one of the most popular international routes from the Phoenix metro area. The 2-hour 15-minute flight makes Los Cabos genuinely accessible for weekend travel, eliminating the commercial airport experience at both ends. Los Cabos International Airport offers a private terminal for charter arrivals, with ground transportation to the Corridor resorts available immediately upon landing. Axon Jets sources Light Jets and Midsize Jets for this route, with transparent pricing and a single point of contact. The Corridor between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas is home to some of the finest resort properties in the Western Hemisphere, including Esperanza, One and Only Palmilla, and Las Ventanas al Paraiso.
