Flights out

I have a flight next Friday leaving at 6:58am for Flagstaff Pullman airport. Staying at Grand Railway Hotel. Would it be able to Uber there?

Also is there staff there two hours before the flight to check in and everything that would be 4:58am?

We have TSA precheck

Yes, you can take an Uber from the Grand Railway Hotel to Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (FLG). The airport is very close to downtown Flagstaff, and most rides from the hotel to the terminal take around 5–10 minutes. Early morning rides are generally available, but it’s a good idea to schedule the ride in advance or request it a few minutes before you plan to leave, especially for a very early flight.

For your 6:58am flight, arriving at the airport by 4:58am is generally sufficient, especially since you have TSA PreCheck. However, there are a few things to consider:

  • Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is small, so lines are typically short, and check-in counters and TSA screening open early enough for morning flights. Most airlines begin check-in and baggage drop roughly 1.5–2 hours before departure.
  • With TSA PreCheck, security processing is faster, but arriving at least 90 minutes before your flight is recommended.
  • Confirm with your airline that staff will be available at check-in by 4:58am for your specific flight. Some airlines open counters a bit later, but for a 6:58am flight, you should be fine.

Tips for early morning departures from FLG:

  • Pre-check in online and have your boarding passes ready on your phone to save time at the counter.
  • Check the Uber or rideshare app the night before to ensure availability.
  • Keep in mind that very early flights can feel cold or quiet outside, so plan accordingly.

In summary, taking an Uber to Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is practical and convenient, and with TSA PreCheck, arriving 2 hours before your flight should allow ample time for check-in and security without stress.
