The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Typical highs of 67–76°F, clear skies the first three days
- $90 per person below the highest fare we saw
- Free cancellation at The Olympic Suites LA, $85 a night
The catch: Frontier's fare has one stop and takes 11h 20m, landing at 12:23 AM, and a checked bag is about $240 for two.
Worth it if you want a week of LA sun on a modest total; skip it if a late, one-stop arrival would spoil day one.
Worth it if you can live with one stop: $1,195 for two covers the Frontier flights at $598 plus 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA at $597, with taxes and fees included. You fly out Saturday, Nov 14 and come home Nov 21, 2026. The Frontier fare isn't nonstop: it has one stop and takes 11h 20m, and a checked bag and spending money aren't in the total.

Why now
$1,195 for two, all in, covers the flights and seven nights, with taxes and fees included. The Frontier fare is $299 per person, $90 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, which works out to 23% less. Mid-November in Los Angeles usually brings highs of 67–76°F and lows near 50°F, so beach days and hikes both work without summer heat. The usual weather for these dates shows clear skies early in the week and more overcast later. A full week leaves room for Disneyland, the Getty Center and a slow morning in Santa Monica without rushing. If the stop bothers you, American has a nonstop at $339 per person, $678 for two, that takes 4h 39m. We estimate spending money at $130 a day per person, $1,820 for the two of you, which brings the whole week to $3,015.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-beach week with room to spread out: a theme park one day, a museum the next, tacos in between. It suits a couple or two friends who want a mix of sightseeing and downtime. The pace is up to you. Seven nights means there's no need to cram, so a lazy pier afternoon can sit right next to a full studio-tour day.
