So you want to ditch the clam chowder for some fry sauce, huh?
We hear ya. Boston's a fantastic city, steeped in history and full of delicious treats (lobster rolls, anyone?). But Utah's got its own kind of magic, with stunning red rock landscapes, epic skiing, and enough salt flats to make you feel like you're on another planet.
The burning question: How far is this desert dreamin' from your current spot?
Fear not, intrepid traveler, for we have the answer! Buckle up, because we're about to take a whistle-stop tour across the friendly skies.
Across the country in a flash (well, almost)
Boston to Utah by plane is a journey of roughly 2,100 miles, which translates to about 5-6 hours in the air. But that's not the whole story. Just like navigating rush hour traffic, flights can get delayed due to weather, air traffic, or the occasional rogue squirrel who decides the runway is a good place for a nut hunt (hey, it's happened!).
QuickTip: Keep going — the next point may connect.
Pro tip: Be prepared for a little extra time tacked onto your trip, especially if you snag a flight with layovers.
