Why go now
$390 per person round trip, or $780 for two, on Southwest when we checked. That's $141 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, a 27% gap across the 12 offers we looked at, which ran from $390 to $531. Our rough budget for two comes to $3,197 for the week. That covers flights, the best-value room at $597 and $1,820 for spending. Mid-November suits LA well: typical highs are 67–76°F with lows near 50°F. That's warm enough for a bike ride along the beach and cool enough for the hike up to Griffith Observatory. The first few days lean clear and the second half overcast. A full week gives you room for Disneyland, the Getty and a lazy day by the ocean without rushing any of it. Fares move, so these are the prices we found, not a promise they'll hold.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-beach week with a food streak. You get Pacific sand in Santa Monica, a big museum, studio tours, a theme park day and plenty of tacos. Seven nights leaves slack, so the pace can stay easy. It suits couples and friends who like a busy day followed by a slow one. LA stretches from the beaches to the Hollywood Hills, so expect to spend some time getting between neighborhoods.
