Los Angeles from Stuttgart, Nov 27–Dec 2: $2,385 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Hotel scores 8.7 from 3,405 reviews, with free cancellation
- Fare is $489 per person below the highest we saw
- Highs of 68–74°F for beach bike rides and Griffith hikes
The catch: The flight isn't a nonstop: one stop on SWISS, 14h 50m out, and a checked bag runs about $160 for two, which isn't in the total.
Worth it if a 14h 50m one-stop flight is fine for mild city-and-beach days; skip it if you only fly nonstop.
Worth it if you don't mind a one-stop flight: the trip is $2,385 for two, all in. That's the flights at $1,598 plus 5 nights at citizenM Los Angeles Downtown at $691, $96 in property fees, and taxes. You fly Nov 27–Dec 2, 2026 on SWISS with one stop, 14h 50m from Stuttgart, and a checked bag and spending money aren't in that total.

Why now
The SWISS fare is $799 per person, which is $489 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. That's a 38% gap across the 12 offers we checked. Before you go, the whole trip comes to $2,385 for two. That covers the flights, 5 nights at citizenM Los Angeles Downtown and the hotel's $96 in property fees, with taxes included. In late November, Los Angeles usually sees highs of 68–74°F and lows near 50°F, mostly overcast. You'll want a jacket at night, but it's still weather for a bike ride along the beach or a full day at Disneyland. The rainy season here is January and February, so these dates come before it. These prices are what we found when we checked, and they can change. A checked bag (about $160 for two) and spending money come on top.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-beach vacation with a little of everything: studio tours, taco stands, big museums and the Pacific. It suits couples or friends who like a mix of a theme park day, long lunches and a walk on the pier. The pace is medium, and it takes some planning because LA is spread out. Pick one area as your base and add a few day trips.
