For LAX–SEA we show about $79 on the low end and around $180 as a more typical one-way economy total, USD, last reviewed August 2026. A $79 one-way is a sale-shaped guide, not a fare you can screenshot and demand. Taxes, bags, and seats change what you pay on the seller site.

Distance and time LAX–SEA
Great-circle distance LAX–SEA is about 955 miles. Block time on a nonstop is typically near 2.5 hours; wind, routing, and which runway you use still move the clock. Connections on the same city pair add layover time on top of that flying.
LAX and SEA typically share the same standard-time offset (America/Los_Angeles). Daylight saving can still split them for part of the year — check the local times on the itinerary, not a screenshot from last month.
When LAX–SEA has a nonstop, that is usually the cleanest product. One-stop options still appear — they are worth opening only if the USD total is materially lower after you count the extra ground time.
Airports for Los Angeles to Seattle
Both ends are in the United States: Los Angeles International (LAX) to Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA). This is not an international itinerary, so the usual domestic bag and ID rules apply at the seller. Alternate metro airports can still beat this pair on price.
LAX is the only origin code we list in this metro. SEA is the arrival code we treat as primary for Seattle. A cheaper nearby airport only wins if the transfer still fits your plan. Search with “include nearby airports” when you want those codes in one results list.
