Flights £812 + hotel £340, taxes in · a checked bag each adds about £121
American · with a stop · 5h 42m
The catch: It's one stop and 5h 42m out on American, a checked bag is about $160 for two, and any resort fee isn't in the total.
Worth it if you want a warm, slow pool weekend in the desert; skip it if a one-stop flight feels too long for 2 nights.
