Cheap flights from Montpellier to Los Angeles

The weeks just before and just after June are usually the softest fares, and June itself is the cheapest month on this route. Summer school holidays and Christmas push prices up on a long transatlantic journey like this one, while the quieter autumn weeks after the peak can ease them again. Midweek departures tend to price better than weekend ones, and booking several weeks ahead matters more than on short hops. Check the months covered by the fare calendar before you settle on dates, since not every month is priced.

All flights on this route connect, so the choice is between itineraries rather than direct and non-direct. Transavia France, HOP!, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Air France and Royal Air Maroc all appear on this route, and the fare gap between them usually comes from baggage, seat choice and flexibility rather than from the flying time. A cheaper ticket can mean paying extra for a cabin bag or a hold bag, while a fuller fare tends to include more but costs more upfront. Read the fare conditions before booking rather than assuming the cheapest option is the cheapest overall.

Los Angeles International is a large, busy airport with several terminals, long walks and queues at immigration, so allow time between landing and reaching the city. The usual ways into town are airport buses, shuttle services, taxis and ride-hailing, plus car rental counters at the terminals. Check which terminal your flight uses, since that changes the transfer route and the walking distance.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm that your departure is from Montpellier Mediterranee and your arrival is at Los Angeles International, and note which airport your connection uses.
• Check whether a hold bag and a cabin bag are included in the fare, since low-cost tickets on this route often charge extra for both.
• Read the connection rules for your ticket, especially if the flights are on separate bookings with different airlines.
• Make sure your passport and any required travel authorisation for the United States are valid for the whole trip before you pay.
• Compare dates across the months that have prices, since June is the cheapest month but not every month is priced.
