Skip LAX: JSX bets on turboprops with Santa Monica–Las Vegas flights, Scottsdale next
JSX has launched ATR 42-600 turboprop flights from Santa Monica to Las Vegas, with Scottsdale service set to begin Jan. 22. The move comes as Santa Monica Airport faces closure by the end of 2028 and ongoing legal challenges. JSX’s flights use a 30-seat layout and operate under public charter rules. The company plans to add a second ATR aircraft by late January.
