Airports

  • Nearest Airport: El Paso (ELP) - 60 miles SE of Las Cruces.
  • Alternative Airport: Albuquerque, NM (ABQ). 190 miles N of Las Cruces.
    • Often less expensive than flying into ELP.
    • If you have a large group and are renting a van, it might save money. 
    • Advanced Air flies from ABQ to the (very small) Las Cruces Airport only on Sun, Mon, Thu, & Fri. These limited days may not be helpful for contest attendance. 
  • Grand Canyon Plans? Fly into Phoenix (PHX), drive to Las Cruces, then head to the Grand Canyon before flying home. One Midwest team makes it a week-long adventure—you’re already out West! 

Ground Transportation

  • Rental vehicles are available through major car rental companies at ELP and in Las Cruces. 
  • There is no shuttle from ELP to Las Cruces.
