The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Southwest with one stop, 7h 10m, landing at LAX at 12:50 PM
- Typical highs of 67–76°F and lows near 50°F for these dates
- Free cancellation at The Olympic Suites LA, $85 a night, rated 7.7
The catch: The best-value room has a shared bathroom, the flight has one stop, and a checked bag is about $140 for two, not in the total.
Worth it if you two are fine with a shared bathroom and a one-stop flight; skip it if you want a private bath all week.
Worth it if a shared bathroom doesn't bother you: $1,285 for two covers Southwest flights at $688 plus 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA at $597, taxes and fees included. You'd go Nov 14–21, 2026, with one stop and a 7h 10m trip from Louisville. A checked bag and spending money aren't in that total.

Why now
At $344 per person, the Southwest fare is $31 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, about 8% under it, across the 12 offers we checked. Add 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA and the trip comes to $1,285 for two, taxes and fees included; a checked bag (about $140 for two) and spending money are extra. Mid-November is a comfortable stretch for Los Angeles: typical highs run 67–76°F with lows near 50°F, warm enough for a bike ride from Santa Monica Pier to Venice Beach and cool enough for the Griffith Observatory hike. The city's rainy-season note covers January and February, not these dates. All three hotels we picked offer free cancellation, which leaves you room to change plans. These prices are what we found when we checked, and they can move.
The kind of trip this is
A full city week with a beach day built in. Los Angeles mixes museums, studio tours, theme parks and taco stands, so 7 nights lets you split it into easy chunks: a day in Anaheim, a day in Burbank, a day at the coast. It suits a couple or two friends who like to keep moving, don't mind some driving and want food to be half the plan.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
Worth it if a shared bathroom and one stop are fine with you. The fare is $31 per person below the highest fare we saw for these dates, the weather runs 67–76°F, and every hotel we picked has free cancellation.
How much is the whole trip for two?
$1,285 for two, taxes and fees included: $688 for Southwest flights ($344 per person) plus $597 for 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA. A checked bag, about $140 for two, and spending money are extra.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip, so a standard ID works, and you pay in US dollars.
What is the weather like?
Typical highs for Nov 14–21 run 67–76°F, with lows near 50°F. The first few days lean clear, the rest overcast. Bring a layer for evenings.
Which airports can I use?
The fare we found lands at Los Angeles International (LAX). The area is also served by Hollywood Burbank (BUR) and John Wayne Orange County (SNA), which can be handier for Burbank or Anaheim.
Is 7 nights enough?
Yes for a solid first look. Seven nights gives you a day each for Disneyland, the Warner Bros. Studio Tour, the Getty Center and the coast, plus time for Griffith Observatory and Grand Central Market.
