Harry Reid International Airport serves Las Vegas, Nevada at 2,181 ft elevation with its longest runway, 08L/26R, at 14,835 by 150 ft. The figures below are computed from FAA NASR runway data (via OurAirports) and the same rules of thumb JetDesk uses on the airport page in the app; the POH and current NOTAMs are the authority.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,181 ft is about 11°C. Every 1,000 ft of density altitude adds roughly 8 percent to a turboprop's takeoff distance and 5 percent to its landing distance. The table uses Piper Meridian book numbers (2,438 ft takeoff and 2,110 ft landing over a 50 ft obstacle at sea level, ISA, max weight) as a reference airplane; heavier turboprops and light jets scale the same way from their own POH figures.

Conditions	Density altitude	Takeoff est.	Landing est.	Landing × 1.5
Standard day (ISA, 11°C)	2,181 ft	2,863 ft	2,340 ft	3,510 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,381 ft	3,097 ft	2,467 ft	3,700 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,581 ft	3,331 ft	2,593 ft	3,890 ft
35°C afternoon	5,104 ft	3,433 ft	2,648 ft	3,973 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (08L/26R, 14,835 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,973 ft needed). The percentages are a generic rule of thumb applied to one reference airplane, not certified performance data for any specific aircraft, and the runway size categories describe the runway, not your airplane's suitability. Verify with the approved flight manual before every flight.

03Nearby fields with 5,000 ft or more

Useful as alternates, as fuel stops when the price at KLAS is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

Airport	Distance	Longest runway
KHND Henderson Executive Airport	7 nm S	6,501 ft
KVGT North Las Vegas Airport	8 nm N	5,005 ft
KBVU Boulder City Municipal Airport	16 nm SE	5,103 ft

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KLAS

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KLAS, the app flags a price stale after two weeks, and the route finder ranks every field within a corridor of your route by net savings after the cost of the extra cycle. Log a price at KLAS or read what a fuel stop actually saves.
