How to book the cheapest flight to Southern California?
Using Orbitz, you'll uncover some of the most impressive flight deals around from a wide range of airlines. But if you're eager to boost your chances of scoring cheap flights to Southern California, here are some pointers to bear in mind:

  • Depending on your departure city, select the 'Nearby airports' function (located under the departure and arrival form fields). From time to time, alternative departure points offer cheaper airfares.
  • Also, click on the 'Show flexible dates' option to bring up the airfares on days around your selected departure. It's possible to pick up cheaper flight deals if you're flexible with your plans.
  • To filter your results, hit 'Show options.' You can search based on airlines, seating class, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also choose whether you want to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
  • If you've sorted your travel dates, lock in your flight. Airfares generally get dearer as the departure date nears.
  • Consider combining your hotels, flights and car rental into a package deal to make your budget go even further.
  • If you can, don't fly in high seasons. Airfares are usually at their most expensive during school breaks, summer and around other vacation times like Easter and Thanksgiving.

What do I need for the flight to Southern California?
From onboard entertainment to travel basics like hand sanitizer, there are a few things a regular flyer won't leave home without. To ensure you're all set for your flight, have a read through this useful list:

  • Check that you've packed your travel documents and identification. For overseas journeys, you'll need your passport. When reserving your tickets, always use the same name, birth date and gender as stated on your current ID.
  • A well-stocked carry-on bag is a must-have for any medium-haul flight. With several hours to kill, you'll want something to keep you amused while in transit. We suggest a good book (or trashy magazine), and something to snack on.
  • Air conditioning and high altitudes can create a cool environment (and we don't mean trendy!). No matter what the weather is outside, pack an extra layer to keep nice and warm on your plane trip.

How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Southern California?
There are ways of booking business or first-class tickets to Southern California that won't burn a hole through your wallet. Bag a seat in the pointy end of the plane for less with these practical tips:

  • Flexibility isn't just for your yoga class. Avoid locking in your travel dates so you can snap up cheaper airfares when a big sale drops.
  • Search for a budget carrier that has business-class seats. They usually come with more legroom and a glass of Champagne — and a more affordable price.
  • Take advantage of your airline's flight rewards program and upgrade your seat. You can also bid for an upgrade in an online auction if available.
