Airport Search Airport Quick Search Help
The Airport Search allows you to search our entire database of over 30,000 airports using only an IATA ID, ICAO ID, FAA ID, Airport Name, City, State, or Country.

Partial entry is also allowed in searches if, for example, you only know part of a city name.

For example, a search in the City field for Los would return records with Los Alamos as well as Los Angeles.
A wildcard character, %, may also be used. A search for %gel% would also turn up Los Angeles as a result but may also turn up any name or ID also containing gel in it.

Feel free to experiment with different searches.

    Phoenix AZ - Overview Glittering like a jewel under th

    Glittering like a jewel under the bright Southwestern sun, the dazzling surroundings and the eight months of nearly perfect weather in Phoenix  have drawn people to this fascinating Arizona city.  It is easy to understand why Phoenix was chosen as the  capital of Arizona, Phoenix is an ideal travel destination.  It is known for its warm temperatures and low humidity. Lying on flat desert and surrounded by mountains and green irrigated fields,  it is a resort, convention, and government center as well as a thriving industrial area.

    By day, the sun fairly sparkles, and as evening nears the sunsets splash purple and blazing orange across the vast horizon. It is because of these wondrous sights that Phoenix's metro area is called the Valley of the Sun. This once sleepy agricultural town is now increasingly active and constantly expanding.

     

    Residents have no qualms about driving 200 miles for a picnic or a swim, and visitors should be prepared to follow their example by securing a rental car in order to get around.  There is so much to see and do that you will want to explore in all directions. The highway system is easy to understand and to follow.  Even if you don't venture beyond the downtown area, you will find a surprising energy and level of activity amid the buildings at Van Buren and Third streets in the newly restored and renovated Copper Square area.   If you have not visited downtown Phoenix for awhile, the winning combination of quality restaurants, museums, shops, and nightclubs will surely exceed your expectations.

     

    The area's awesome beauty, from the top of  nearby South Mountain to the distinctive Camelback Mountain, eclipses any manmade building. As you stroll through the desert you will be  surprised by the abundance of blooming vegetation, and moved by the grandeur of rolling hills that are criss-crossed by hiking trails.

     

    The sun shines all day; the nights are pleasantly cool. There are so many activities and attractions to enjoy while visiting Phoenix. As a vacation spot it pleases both the sophisticated traveler and the casual vacationer.

    Local Seasons:

    The peak season in Phoenix is in the winter when people throughout the country escape the cold and come to enjoy the warm temperatures and low humidity of this desert city. Whether it’s golf, sitting at the pool, strolling through town, dining at the many fine restaurants, or just enjoying the scenery, this is an ideal time for a visit. Temperatures during the day can reach the 70s F and at night drop to the 40s F, offering the opportunity for outdoor activities during the day, and cooler sleeping temperatures at night. Spring is quite pleasant as temperatures rise and humidity drops to less than 20%. Fall is very similar in temperature. Summers are very warm, with the high temperatures during the day often reaching well over 100 F. There is virtually no humidity, so the effect of the higher temperatures is not as pronounced as in more humid parts of the US. Summer emperatures drop to the mid 70’s F at night.
