Phoenix and Scottsdale form one of the deepest private markets in the West, anchored by Scottsdale Airport. Winter golf, spring training, and major events drive a long high season. Los Angeles runs on Van Nuys, one of the world's busiest general-aviation airports, plus Burbank and Orange County. Entertainment, tech, and a constant Las Vegas and Bay Area shuttle drive heavy one-way demand.
Most Phoenix–Los Angeles private traffic moves through dedicated business-aviation airports rather than the crowded commercial terminals. On the Phoenix end that means Scottsdale (SDL) and Phoenix Sky Harbor International (PHX); arrivals into Los Angeles favor Van Nuys (VNY) and Hollywood Burbank (BUR). Flying these FBO-served fields means curb-to-cabin in minutes and no main-terminal queues on either side.
At 379 miles this is squarely light jets territory — aircraft like the Embraer Phenom 300 and Cessna Citation CJ3+ have the range and cabin to fly it comfortably nonstop, which is why they make up most of the empty-leg supply on the route. Los Angeles runs 1 hour behind Phoenix, so you land with the clock in your favor. Demand peaks around January through April, peaking around the WM Phoenix Open out of Phoenix and award season in winter and the summer travel stretch into Los Angeles, when repositioning flights — and therefore empty legs — are most frequent.
