Los Angeles is one of the most popular travel destinations in the U.S. — and also one of the most
expensive if you don’t know when and how to book. Whether you’re heading to LA for business,
entertainment, or a weekend escape, timing and strategy matter.
When Are Flights to LA Cheapest?
Generally, the best time to book flights to Los Angeles is 4–8 weeks before departure for
domestic trips and 8–12 weeks for international flights. Midweek departures (Tuesday and
Wednesday) tend to offer better pricing and availability than peak weekend flights.
Seasonally, LA is most affordable during:
• Late January through early March
• Late August through early December
Summer and holidays drive prices up, so booking early is key.
How to Find Better Deals Without Flying Economy Basic
The mistake most travelers make is chasing the lowest price instead of the best value. Basic fares
Often come with:
• No seat selection
• No carry-on
• No flexibility
A better strategy is to look for main cabin or premium economy deals that include luggage and
flexibility.
