Cheap flights from Phoenix (PHX) to Los Angeles (QLA)

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is one of the busiest airports in the U.S., and the city itself is a sprawling metropolis which attracts both business travelers and those who want to sight-see.

When visiting the City of Angels, consider securing a rental car as a time saving and cost-effective mode of transportation. A personal vehicle will allow you to find alternative roads, instead of traversing congested L.A. highways, and will often provide you with the fastest route to area attractions.
