Please refer to: www.faa.gov/superbowl 

SPECIAL EVENT PARKING/RESERVATION PROGRAM

Due to the high volume of air traffic anticipated during the 2024 Super Bowl activities, a parking  and airspace slot reservation system will remain in effect for arrivals and departures, including drop-and-go operations, to and from airports in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, between Tuesday, February 6, and Tuesday, February 13, 2024.

The following flights are exempt from the parking PPR and airspace slot reservation: regularly scheduled air carriers and air taxi operations, including flights operating under Title 14, Chapter II, Subchapter D, Part 380, which covers Essential Air Service under the Small Community Air Service Development Program (SCASDP).

Participating airports include: Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS), Henderson Executive Airport (KHND), North Las Vegas Airport (KVGT) and Boulder City Airport (KBVU).

Review the airport’s NOTAM for parking PPR/airspace slot reservation information, and as directed in the NOTAMs contact your preferred FBO at that airport, or the Airport Authority.

Due to significant increases in traffic volume, operators without parking PPR/airspace slot reservations should expect substantial delays in and out of the area with possible denial of service.
