[edit] By air
As a suburb of Phoenix, Glendale does not have its own major airport. Airplane owners may find it convenient to fly into Glendale Municipal Airport (located in the western portion of the city), but most people may find it prudent to fly into Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, the area's major airport.
[edit] By road
Glendale has the benefit of numerous freeways that travel through the Phoenix metro area.
- The southern portion of the city is easily accessible from Interstate 10, exiting between 43rd Avenue and the Loop 101 and travelling north on the arterial streets.
- The eastern portion is accessible from Interstate 17, exiting between Camelback Road and the Loop 101.
- Northern Glendale is accessible from the Loop 101, which is the only freeway in the Regional Freeway System to cross through the city. The Loop 101 travels north from Interstate 10 and turns east at the northern boundary of Glendale, where it intersects Interstate 17. Northern Glendale can be accessed by exiting the Loop 101 between 51st Avenue and Bell Road.
- West Glendale, home to the Glendale Arena (NHL) and the University of Phoenix Stadium (NFL), is accessible by exiting Loop 101 between Northern Avenue and Camelback Road. The Arena and stadium are easily accessible from exiting at Glendale Avenue and heading east.
