The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Breeze nonstop from MSY to LAX, 4h 35m, leaving 8:25 PM Saturday
- $298 per person, $94 below the highest fare we saw
- Free cancellation at all three hotels, highs of 67–76°F
The catch: The $597 hotel room is an economy triple with a shared bathroom, and a checked bag is about $160 for two, which isn't in the total.
Worth it if you'll trade a private bathroom for a $1,193 week of city, beach and tacos; skip it if you need your own bath.
Worth it if you don't mind a shared bathroom. $1,193 for two covers the flights at $596 plus 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA at $597, with taxes and fees included, but not a checked bag or spending money. You'd fly Nov 14–21, 2026, nonstop on Breeze from New Orleans to LAX, and the flight out takes 4h 35m.

Why now
At $298 per person, the Breeze nonstop is $94 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. That's a 24% gap across the 12 offers we checked. The whole trip comes to $1,193 for two: the flights plus 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA, with taxes and fees included. A checked bag (about $160 for two) and spending money come on top. In mid-November, Los Angeles usually sees highs of 67–76°F and lows near 50°F. The weather normals show clear skies for the first three days, then overcast. That's comfortable weather for biking the beach path in Santa Monica or hiking up to Griffith Observatory. The flight leaves New Orleans at 8:25 PM on Saturday, Nov 14, so you can put in a full day before you go and land by 11:00 PM. These prices are what we found when we checked, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
A city-and-beach week at an easy pace. You could spend one day at Disneyland and one on a bike along the sand, then split the rest between museums, a studio lot and taco stands. It suits a couple or two friends who like to wander and eat well and want a simple room as a base, not a resort. Seven nights gives you room to see the sights without rushing.

Questions readers ask
Is it worth it?
Worth it if a shared bathroom doesn't bother you. You get a 4h 35m nonstop on Breeze, $94 per person below the highest fare we saw for these dates, and a Koreatown room with free cancellation. If you want your own bathroom, the budget pick has one for less.
How much is the whole trip for two?
It's $1,193 for two, all in: $596 for the flights ($298 per person) plus $597 for 7 nights at The Olympic Suites LA, with taxes and fees included. A checked bag runs about $160 for two, and spending money isn't counted either.
What's the weather like in mid-November?
Highs usually run 67–76°F, with lows near 50°F and dipping to 46°F one night. The weather normals show clear skies Nov 14–16 and overcast for the rest of the week, so pack a warm layer for the evenings.
When does the flight leave and land?
The outbound Breeze nonstop leaves New Orleans at 8:25 PM on Saturday, Nov 14, and lands at LAX at 11:00 PM local time. We don't have the return flight times, so check them on the airline's site before you book.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip, so you'll pay in US dollars. The only adjustment is the clock: Los Angeles is 2 hours behind New Orleans.
Is 7 nights enough?
Seven nights is enough for a Disneyland day, the Warner Bros. Studio Tour, the Getty Center, Griffith Observatory and a bike ride from Santa Monica to Venice, with time left over for Grand Central Market.
