With this weekend’s NFL conference championship games determining who will meet in Super Bowl LVIII, the FAA has issued early guidelines for general aviation traffic heading to the game, which will be held in Las Vegas on February 11.

For the first time, the gambling mecca will host the big game, which will be played at the new Allegiant Stadium. It had been said in the past that, for Super Bowl week, private aviation traffic heading into Las Vegas was as high as in the host city—regardless of where the game was actually being played. Couple that with the game-related travel including an influx of fans of the two participating teams, and the Clark County Department of Aviation—which manages Las Vegas airports—is gearing up for a possible tidal wave of activity.
