For one or two people flying a short distance from Las Vegas, a piston aircraft is often all the trip needs.
Piper introduced the Saratoga PA-32R in 1980. It seats 5 to 6 with a published range of 770 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 165 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 20,000 feet and 24.3 cubic feet of baggage volume.

Why the Piper Saratoga PA-32R Fits Las Vegas
With 770 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Las Vegas to destinations such as Orange County, Salt Lake City and Denver, allowing for reserves and routing.
Around Las Vegas this opens up the smaller airports as well, including Henderson Executive (KHND), North Las Vegas (KVGT) and Boulder City (KBVU). The towers at Henderson and North Las Vegas close in the evening, so a late departure from either one takes more planning. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date depends on its weight and that day’s temperature and wind. The operator works that out, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How Las Vegas Clients Use the Piper Saratoga PA-32R
Las Vegas clients use piston aircraft for short trips with one or two passengers, such as a hop to a small airport in southern Nevada, a quick flight to St. George, or repositioning where a turbine aircraft would cost more than the trip needs. Most have two to five seats and limited baggage space.
