Baggage, seats and classes on the New Orleans to Los Angeles flight

Before you compare the New Orleans to Los Angeles flight prices, compare what they carry. A fare with hand luggage only can look cheapest and end up dearer once a bag is added. Haqqi Tours offers the fare that matches your bags: cabin bag only for a short trip, checked bag for a holiday, extra allowance for a long stay. Seat selection, meals and priority boarding are optional extras on many airlines; we tell you which are worth it.

• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Flying with children, families and groups from New Orleans to Los Angeles

Three things to know about the flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and normally a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Let us know the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.

Things to do in Los Angeles when you land

Los Angeles is a region more than a city: Hollywood and Downtown, the beaches of Santa Monica and Venice, Disneyland in Anaheim and the harbour at San Pedro, with Los Angeles International (LAX) on the coast about 25 km west of Downtown and freeways joining everything. The reasons travellers fly from New Orleans to Los Angeles include Griffith Observatory, Rodeo Drive, a day in San Diego, the Hollywood Sign and Walk of Fame and Universal Studios Hollywood. For the first meal, try seafood on the Santa Monica pier, tacos from a street truck and In-N-Out burgers.

Haqqi Tours arranges guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Los Angeles; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from New Orleans to Los Angeles

Sunny most of the year, with a cool ocean breeze and June gloom on the coast; the freeways are slow at weekday rush hours and on Friday afternoons; Disneyland and the beaches are busiest in summer and school holidays. On the flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Los Angeles to New Orleans

We book the return leg from Los Angeles to New Orleans just as easily, generally on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles?

The cost of a flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest New Orleans to Los Angeles flight is frequently not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles is typically booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our booking desk applies on every booking:

• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
• Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

When you fill in the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest New Orleans to Los Angeles flight first, then the alternatives.
