Salt Lake City–Los Angeles Flights

Best Ways to Book With Points & Miles

Booking Salt Lake City–Los Angeles with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The cheapest economy seat connects once; skipping the connection means an economy nonstop on either carrier at a higher price. The economy floor adds about $6 in taxes and fees, below the route's typical economy taxes. Moving up to business costs about 3.9 times the economy points. Before moving bank points anywhere, confirm the seat is bookable, since transfers are one-way.

Best Points & Miles Programs

Alaska Atmos Rewards is cheapest in economy at 7,500 points. Qantas Frequent Flyer wins business class at 29,000 points. First class starts at 20,000 points through Alaska Atmos Rewards on a connecting itinerary, often first on one leg only, so confirm the cabin on each flight. The other four programs include American AAdvantage, Delta SkyMiles, and United MileagePlus. The business class floor is a partner award: one airline's miles on another airline's flights.

Airlines & Routing Options

Salt Lake City–Los Angeles draws nonstop award space from two alliances: Delta (SkyTeam) and United Airlines (Star Alliance). Partner programs in both alliances can each book a nonstop. With only four airlines holding award seats but six programs pricing them, the currency you book with matters more than the carrier.

Alternative Airports & Routes

Into Los Angeles, Orange County (SNA) and Ontario (ONT) both start at 11,000 points in economy, above the route's 7,500-point economy floor, and work as backups when LAX space is gone. Orange County and Ontario also log nonstop flights from Salt Lake City in the data. Pricing the round trip? Los Angeles to Salt Lake City is tracked separately, and awards can price differently each way.

Booking tips

  1. 1Search flexible dates first, since saver award seats can appear on scattered days.
  2. 2Compare partner programs before transferring points, since the same seat can price very differently.
  3. 3Check both direct and connecting options when direct award seats are limited.
  4. 4Book early for peak travel periods, when saver space disappears fastest.
  5. 5Recheck availability often, since airlines may release more award seats closer to departure.
