Delta Flights from Atlanta to Los Angeles

Book Your Delta Flight

The Atlanta to Los Angeles route at a glance

Atlanta and Los Angeles are both Delta hubs, so there are plenty of flights between them. It’s about 1,950 miles, a long enough trip that the seat, the time of day and the fare rules all start to matter. Los Angeles is three hours behind Atlanta, so a morning flight west lands you in the early afternoon local time.

Flight times vary with the schedule and the weather. Fares and schedules change often and are not guaranteed.

Tips for this route

• Heading east, some flights leave in the evening and arrive the next morning. They’re cheaper for some people and miserable for others, so think about how you sleep on planes.
• LAX is huge. If you’re staying near Burbank or Long Beach, it can be worth checking those airports too.
• For a long flight, look at what your fare includes before you pay. Seat choice and bags matter more on five hours in the air than on one.
