O.P. did not state whether VFR or IFR, did not indicate a preference to fly
airways or whether he wished to avoid special use airspace. He could file
direct (or just fly) after checking airspace status.

What route would you recommend from the Phoenix area to KMYF ?

GBN and V66 westbound. It's about the only economical path that allows
you to sneak between the many restricted areas west of Phoenix.

Yes, that's pretty much the route. There's quite a bit of military traffic
around GBN (F-16's from Luke
AFB) and also around Yuma so going IFR or flight following if VFR is a good
idea. The last time I made
that trip, it was hazy VFR and they gave me the ILS approach into KMYF. Gibbs
Flying Service is a great
FBO. Have a good trip.
