Frontier flight 2031 is scheduled to leave from KCI at 2:40 p.m. It will arrive in Las Vegas at 3:43 p.m., local time.

You’ll gain some hours because Las Vegas is in the Pacific timezone, two hours behind Kansas City. Use your extra time wisely while you’re surrounded by bright lights.

WHAT OTHER NONSTOP FLIGHTS ARE THERE FROM KCI?

Frontier’s nonstop flights from Kansas City to Las Vegas aren’t the only new additions to KCI’s flight rotation this year. Since 2022, these flights were added to the airport:

• Kansas City to Toronto with Air Canada: The flight departs at 10:45 a.m. every day.

Meyer told The Star that Southwest is looking to restore its nonstop flight to Raleigh-Durham from KCI in November, but it has not been confirmed yet. KCI is also looking to get its nonstop services to Albuquerque, Indianapolis, Milwaukee and San Antonio back, since those haven’t returned since May 2020.

The airport also lost nonstop flights to Cincinnati, Orlando, Punta Gorda and San Francisco between the summer of 2019 and now.
