Las Vegas from Los Angeles, 30 Oct – 1 Nov: £526 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, because
- Frontier direct flight from LAX, 1h 17m, leaving 11:31 AM Friday
- $220 per person, $92 below the typical fare on this route
- Highs of 73–76°F, Harrah's rated 7.9 with free cancellation
The catch: A hold bag is about $240 for two and isn't in the total, which is more than half the $440 fare.
Worth it if you pack light and want shows, food and the Strip for one weekend; skip it if you need hold luggage.
Worth it for the two of you: the whole trip is $697 for two, all in. That's the Frontier direct flight at $440 plus 2 nights at Harrah's Las Vegas, A Caesars Destination at $230 and its $27 resort fee, taxes and fees included, while hold luggage and spending money are extra. You fly out Friday, Oct 30 on a 1h 17m direct flight from LAX and come home Sunday, Nov 1, 2026.

Why now
The fare is $220 per person, $92 below the typical fare on this route, or 29% below typical. That typical figure is the median of 31 earlier checks we ran on this route, so it's a real comparison. Across 12 offers we saw fares from $220 to $273 per person, and this one is the lowest of them. The weather lines up too: typical highs for these dates run 73–76°F with lows near 53°F, warm enough for a dayclub afternoon and mild enough to walk the Strip at night with a light layer. It's a 225-mile hop with no time difference, so a late-morning Friday departure lands you at 12:48 PM with the afternoon still ahead. Prices were all-in when we checked and can change, so take $697 for two as what we found, not a promise.
The kind of trip this is
A quick city-and-nightlife weekend: shows, big dinners, casino floors and a desert drive if you want some open air. It suits a couple or two friends who like a full itinerary and a late night, and the short flight gives you two proper evenings in town. It isn't a beach or quiet-nature trip, though Red Rock Canyon and the Hoover Dam are just outside the city.

Good to know

- Currency: US dollar (USD).
- No passport needed: it's a domestic trip, paid in US dollars, with no time difference from Los Angeles.
- The outbound direct flight leaves LAX at 11:31 AM and lands at Harry Reid International (LAS) at 12:48 PM; a 7:36 PM direct flight is the same fare.
- The $697 total covers flights, the Harrah's room and its $27 resort fee; a hold bag is about $240 for two extra.
- Harrah's is room only, with the room type assigned on arrival; all three hotels list free cancellation.
- A heads-up: the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend falls in November, so check event dates if you plan a return visit.
