There are a handful of flights from Vancouver to sun destinations south of the border that offer substantial savings in 2024.

Travellers looking to escape the Raincouver winter blues have several cheap options to hotspots south of the border. 

Flights from Vancouver to Los Angeles or Las Vegas continue to offer the best bang for your buck for à la carte flights, but the latter may win out when they are paired with hotels. 

But the City of Angels and the City of Sin aren't the only two U.S. destinations Vancouverites can fly to for a steal. 

Have a look at a handful of the cheapest flights from Vancouver International Airport (YVR) to popular US sun spots, including how to snag the LA and Vegas options. 

Flights from Vancouver to Los Angeles 

Historically one of the cheapest round-trip tickets to the U.S. from Vancouver, return trips to Los Angeles are a breeze, with multiple direct flights departing daily that typically take around three hours.

Ultra-low-cost carrier Flair Airlines offers the route with direct flights for under a jaw-dropping $128 round-trip on select dates toward the end of February and into the beginning of March. However, numerous dates across multiple months show prices around $200 return. 

Air Canada and WestJet also offer the route at a steal.

Flights from Vancouver to Las Vegas

Las Vegas offers the second-best deal from Vancouver, with numerous round-trip tickets with direct flights to Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) available starting at under $200.

Flights to Nevada's party epicentre cost almost as little as ones to LA on select dates, starting at only $136 round-trip on some dates in March.

Travellers looking for a cheap hotel and flight package will find the best deal in the City of Sin, too. Sunwing Packages that include direct, return flights and four-star accommodation for three nights start at just over $300 including all taxes and fees per person based on a double occupancy. 

A trip to Las Vegas can include all of the usual suspects — gambling, impressive shows, pool parties, and big-name DJ concerts — but there is a plethora of other activities and attractions to enjoy in the city or just outside of it. 

Flights from Vancouver to Dallas 

Austin might be its capital, but everything is supposed to be bigger in the southern state, anyway.

Dallas, Texas offers many things to enjoy, including catching a Dallas Cowboys game, visiting the Dallas Museum of Art, checking out the rodeo, and much more. Best of all, tickets to the popular destination will only set you back $357 on several dates in the spring. Low-cost options only involve one stopover that is under two or three hours. 

If you want to visit Houston, it is roughly a three-and-a-half-hour drive away. From there, you can easily visit Galveston, also in Texas, on the coast.

Flights from Vancouver to Phoenix 

Arizona offers one of the cheapest deals for locals looking for sunshine who want to try something outside of LA and Las Vegas. It is also the fifth-largest city in the United States, offering sublime desert views and a coveted bucket list attraction: the Grand Canyon.

Round-trip tickets to Phoenix from Vancouver start for as little as $158 with Flair Airlines on select dates in April. There is wide availability for tickets ranging between $250 and $350, too.

Scottsdale, Arizona, is considered one of the spa capitals of the country, located a short, 25-minute drive from Phoenix.

Flights from Vancouver to Orlando

Lynx Air, a budget carrier based in Calgary, commenced its direct route from Vancouver to Orlando International Airport (MCO) on Nov. 18, 2023.

The Canadian carrier offers a significant discount on the route, with prices starting at as little as $265 return on select dates in February. After that, prices dip down into the $350 range in April. 

Orlando saw a whopping 74 million visitors in 2022, making it the most-visited destination in the United States. "The Beautiful City" is home to several popular attractions, including Disney's largest amusement park, which actually consists of four separate "magical theme parks." Universal Studios Orlando is another massive attraction, consisting of three separate parks.
