Los Angeles from Salt Lake City, Nov 27–Dec 2: $1,334 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, because
- Nonstop on Frontier, 2h 5m, leaving 6:57 PM Friday, Nov 27
- $229 per person, $9 under the $238 typical fare
- Free cancellation at all three stays; typical highs 68–74°F
The catch: The $1,334 total doesn't cover a checked bag, which runs about $240 for two, and the skies are usually overcast for these dates.
Worth it if you want five easy city-and-beach days with a short nonstop; skip it if you need a hotel scored above 7.5 for the price.
Worth it for the two of you: $1,334 for the whole trip, which covers $458 in flights, $778 for the hotel and $98 in fees paid at the property, with taxes included. That's 5 nights, Nov 27–Dec 2, 2026, on a nonstop Frontier flight from Salt Lake City to LAX.

Why now
At $229 per person, the nonstop fare comes in $9 under the $238 typical price, the median of 20 earlier checks on this route, so about 4% lower. The flight is 2h 5m, leaves Salt Lake City at 6:57 PM on Friday, Nov 27 and lands at LAX at 8:02 PM, and you get an hour back from the time change. Late November in Los Angeles usually means highs of 68–74°F and lows near 50°F. It's cool enough to hike up to Griffith Observatory and mild enough for a bike ride along the beach. The rainy season doesn't start until January and February. All three stays offer free cancellation, so you can lock in a room now and still change plans. These prices are what we found when we checked, taxes and fees included, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city vacation with a beach day and a theme park built in. You've got Disneyland, a studio tour, the Getty and taco stands all within reach. It suits couples or two friends who like to mix full days with slower ones, with a coastal ride one day and a museum the next. Five nights is enough time to cover a few areas without rushing, as long as you plan your drives around traffic.
