Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport PHXKPHX

Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX) is the main airport for the Phoenix metro area and a major American Airlines hub in the oneworld network, with substantial Southwest and Frontier operations. Its strength is domestic and western U.S. connectivity, plus Mexico/Canada service and selected long-haul international routes including Europe and Taipei. The passenger layout is simpler than the terminal numbers suggest: commercial flights use only Terminal 3 and Terminal 4. Downtown Phoenix is close; rideshare/taxi is usually the easiest city-center option, while the PHX Sky Train plus Valley Metro Rail is the practical transit route.
