Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts

The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “How far in advance should I book?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia cost?” are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights on this route over the past 12 months or more.

Where a route has too few bookings to fill every point in a chart, we borrow the shape of the curve from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on this route.

Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches on this route.

The chart “When is the best time of day to fly?” is calculated directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia.

What is the typical flight duration from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

The flight from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia is about 1,920 miles. The typical nonstop flight time is 4 hours 20 minutes heading east, while the return trip takes about 4 hours 54 minutes due to prevailing winds. Both directions are flown by American and Delta.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Yes, Delta Air Lines and American Airlines both fly non-stop from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia, with service every day of the week. Delta operates 11 weekly flights (departing at 11:20 AM and 11:59 PM), while American runs 7 weekly flights departing at 7:01 AM. These two carriers are the airlines currently scheduled non-stop on this route.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the ground transportation options in Philadelphia?

Getting from Philadelphia International Airport to Center City is straightforward, with SEPTA's Airport Regional Rail Line running trains every 30 minutes directly to downtown stations like Jefferson and Suburban Station, making it the fastest and most-used option for travelers. Taxis offer a flat $32 rate from the airport to the Center City Zone, while rideshare pickups are at Zone 7 and three SEPTA bus routes serve the airport at Zone 1 for budget connections. Rental car counters are in a nearby facility with shuttle service, and private car services or hotel shuttles provide door-to-door alternatives. The train is generally the best choice for speed and affordability, though taxis and rideshares are more convenient for door-to-door trips.

When is the cheapest time to fly from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Fares from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia are lowest in late January, around $353. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $362, followed by February ($366) and September ($404). December is the most expensive month at about $459, and fares peak in late December at about $486. The yearly average is $416. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.

How far in advance should I book tickets from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Book about 7 weeks before departure for the best fares from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia, around $363. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $382, $19 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $481. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Yes, overnight red-eye flights operate from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia on Delta, running four times a week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The flight departs at 11:59 PM and lands the next morning at 6:15 AM.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Delta Air Lines and American Airlines currently operate non-stop flights from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia, each flying daily. Delta offers up to 11 weekly flights with departures in the late morning and near midnight, while American has 7 weekly flights departing in the early morning. Both carriers serve the route on a daily basis throughout the week.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

How reliable are on‑time arrivals on this route from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

American Airlines is the most reliable carrier on this route, with 91.4% of arrivals landing within 15 minutes of schedule and a 9.0% cancellation rate. Delta follows with 81.8% of arrivals on time and a 0.5% cancellation rate.
Methodology
On-time arrival and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; a flight counts as on time when it arrives within 15 minutes of schedule. Carriers are ranked by arrival on-time rate on this route, and the carrier list itself comes from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI).

Which airport should I use in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia International Airport is the main airport for the city and the one you should use. It is about 7 miles from downtown and close to major attractions. American Airlines uses it as a hub, with extensive domestic and some international service, plus low-cost carriers like Frontier.

How do I get to Salt Lake City Intl Airport from the city center?

Getting from downtown Salt Lake City to Salt Lake City International Airport is easiest by TRAX light rail — the Green Line runs every 15 minutes, takes about 20–25 minutes, and costs $2.50, making it the cheapest and often most popular choice. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are available curbside and take only 10–15 minutes, though they cost more.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Salt Lake City to Philadelphia?

Delta Air Lines operates the most flights on this route, using the Boeing 737 family. American Airlines also flies it, with Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.
