Travel from Charlotte to Los Angeles

If you want to trade in the laid-back Southern charm of Charlotte for the excitement of Los Angeles and the Southern California coast on your next vacation, visit Orbitz.com to make your travel arrangements. Orbitz.com can help you find cheap flights from Charlotte to Los Angeles as well as affordable ground transportation and hotel accommodations.

Flying Out of Charlotte

Leaving Charlotte, you will fly out of Charlotte Douglas International Airport, which is located approximately seven miles west of downtown. US Airways is the only carrier that offers nonstop flights from this airport to Los Angeles. If you drive yourself to the airport, you can park in one of eight daily or long-term lots. The cheapest option is to park in one of the four long-term lots for $5 per day. You can also take a taxi from downtown to the airport for around $25, or you can make arrangements with an airport shuttle service.

Visiting Los Angeles

Los Angeles, also known simply as L.A., is the hallmark city of the Southern California region. It is situated along the coast of the Pacific Ocean. Visitors fly into Los Angeles International Airport, which is located sixteen miles southwest of downtown. The greater Los Angeles area is a sprawling region that does not have the best mass transit options. You can take a metered taxi to downtown at a cost of around $45 if you don’t hit traffic, but heavy traffic will significantly increase the cost. Airport shuttle services and limos are available. Your best bet may be to rent a car at the airport. L.A. enjoys great weather all year long, but the hottest part of the year is June through December with average temperatures ranging from 79 to 90°F. The rest of the year, average temperatures range from 59 to 73°F. There’s more to do in Los Angeles and the surrounding area than one can fit into a single trip, but as you arrange your itinerary, make sure to include a trip to Hollywood to see the Walk of Fame and Mann’s Chinese Theater, Santa Monica beach and pier, Rodeo Drive, and Malibu.

Trading in the east coast for the west coast is a great way to experience how the other side of the country lives. Keep your trip within your budget by finding the best deals on airfare.
