Why now
$117 per person round trip, or $234 for two, on a Southwest nonstop. That's $313 below the typical fare on this route. Our earlier checks put that fare at $430 per person, so this one is 73% less. It's also the lowest fare we've seen in 30 days across 15 checks, and the 12 offers we saw ranged from $117 to $223. The timing works too. You leave Thursday, Nov 19 and come back Monday, Nov 23, when typical highs are 68–77°F and lows sit near 49°F, so a light jacket covers the evenings. Four nights is enough for a beach morning in Santa Monica, an afternoon at the Getty Center and a full day at Disneyland. Our budget for two is $1,843 all in: flights, the best-value stay and $130 per person a day to spend.
The kind of trip this is
A city-and-beach getaway with a food streak. You get taco stands, a market hall, big museums, a theme park and a bike ride along the Pacific, all in one long weekend. It suits couples and groups of friends who like to keep moving, and the pace is up to you: pack in Disneyland and a studio tour, or slow down with a beach day and an evening on the Sunset Strip.

What does the whole trip cost for two?
Our budget is $1,843 for two: $234 for flights, $569 for the best-value stay and $1,040 for spending, which works out to $130 per person a day.
