Fly from Carlsbad to Phoenix on 30 April 2026 aboard a Hawker 850XP midsize jet — a spring empty leg charter crossing from the Southern California coast into the Sonoran Desert as the Valley of the Sun enjoys its final mild fortnight before summer. Late April is one of the finest moments to arrive in Phoenix and Scottsdale: the desert is still in wildflower, resort pools are at their most pleasant, and golf courses from Troon North to We-Ko-Pa are in superb condition without the triple-digit afternoons that define June onwards. This private jet routing takes six passengers from Carlsbad's McClellan-Palomar direct into Phoenix Sky Harbor, sparing travellers the five-hour I-10 drive or the lengthy commercial connections that so often precede a short desert hop.Fly from Carlsbad to Phoenix on 30 April 2026 aboard a Hawker 850XP midsize jet — a spring empty leg charter crossing from the Southern California coast into the Sonoran Desert as the Valley of the Sun enjoys its final mild fortnight before summer.

The Hawker 850XP offers a stand-up cabin with the range and space to suit longer equipment loads — golf bags, tennis kit, weekend luggage — without compromise. Empty leg charters release the repositioning portion of a scheduled aircraft movement, giving travellers the full private charter experience at a much more accessible moment. The route typically flies around an hour, placing guests at their resort or club before lunch.The Hawker 850XP offers a stand-up cabin with the range and space to suit longer equipment loads — golf bags, tennis kit, weekend luggage — without compromise.
