Why now
The fare is $350 per person round trip, or $699 for two, nonstop on F9. Heads-up: we've checked this route 11 times before, and $350 is $7 above the $343 median of those checks, about 2% higher. We also saw it as low as $280 on Oct 12. So this isn't a price drop. What you get is a short nonstop hop of 228 miles and a two-night weekend with a dry forecast. Highs are 75°F Friday, 79°F Saturday and 84°F Sunday, and the chance of rain is 5% or less each day. That weather works for a bike ride along the beach, an afternoon at the Getty Center or a taco crawl. We budgeted $1,495 for two, covering flights, the best-value bed and $520 for spending.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-beach long weekend with plenty of good food. It suits a couple or a pair of friends who want sun and tacos more than a big itinerary. The pace is relaxed: you land Friday afternoon and fly home late Sunday, so you get one full day plus two evenings. Pick one area, maybe Santa Monica or Downtown LA, and let the weekend happen there.

Where to stay in Los Angeles
We found three options, and all three have free cancellation. Samesun Venice Beach Hotel & Hostel is the best value at $275 for the stay ($138 a night) with breakfast. It scores 8.3 from 3,201 reviews. Heads-up: that price is for 2 beds in an 8-bed mixed dorm with a shared washroom. Hyatt House LA - University Medical Center is the top rated at 8.5 from 739 reviews. It costs $583 for the stay ($292 a night) for a King Room in Northeast Los Angeles, room only. Dunes Inn - Wilshire is the private-room budget pick at $415 ($208 a night). You get a room with two queen beds, and it scores 8.2 from 1,633 reviews. If you want a beach base, Santa Monica has the pier and walkable streets you can manage without a car.
