The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a friendly reminder to hundreds of pilots planning to travel to and from Las Vegas for Super Bowl LVIII. The agency is urging them to carefully review destination information to ensure safe flights for themselves and their passengers.

Crowds of people are expected to arrive in Las Vegas on commercial flights. According to Simple Flying, Harry Reid Airport (LAS) is preparing for a significant increase in passenger traffic.

However, some travelers, including celebrities and wealthy individuals, choose to take private flights to smaller airports in the area.

The FAA emphasizes the importance of familiarizing yourself with the features of unpopular airports. On YouTube, the agency has published a series of videos called "From the Flight Deck," where pilots can find real videos of runways, taxiways, useful charts, and visual graphs.

In Las Vegas, the FAA offers two videos: one about the North Las Vegas Airport (VGT) and the other about the Henderson Executive Airport (HSH).

VGT is a medium-sized airport that serves general, business, and corporate aviation. It is located northwest of Las Vegas, and pilots are advised to familiarize themselves with the airspace and features of the three runways.

HSH is a small airport that accommodates a variety of aircraft types, including training aircraft, helicopters, and "large cabin corporate jets." The FAA emphasizes the importance of understanding HSH traffic patterns to avoid disruptions to LAS airspace.
