Hear it in context

Notice where the phrase sounds natural.

I have to leave early to catch a flight to Paris.

Last year, I almost missed my chance to catch a flight because there was heavy traffic on the way to the airport.

One small grammar move makes it sound right.

Not: I need to catch the flight to home.

Say: I need to catch a flight home. / the flight home.

It's 'fly home' / 'a flight home' — no 'to' before 'home'.
