North Carolina to California Travel Guide
California welcomes visitors from around the country and the world to explore its miles of coastline. From the vineyards of the Napa Valley to the star-lined walks of Hollywood, California offers a veritable wonderland of opportunities for those who make it a part of their travel plans. Whether you're flying in to take in the Redwood Forest and the Golden Gate Bridge, or your plans include visiting Disneyland or Universal studios, there are multiple flights available. Flights from North Carolina to California are easy to find on Cheapflights.
Weather is not really a major concern when deciding the best time to leave North Carolina for a West Coast vacation. The winters in North Carolina are mild, while the winters in California are modest as well. So your biggest challenge in choosing a time to visit Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento, San Jose or San Francisco depends more on the "tourist" season in the area you want to visit. For example, if you are heading for Disneyland and want to save some money, avoid summer, public holidays, Christmas and spring break. However, if you book at least 90 days in advance and don't mind more crowds than those experienced in other times of the year, then you may still find some very reasonable deals. If can book your California vacation either just before or after summer, and avoid major holidays like Christmas, you'll be able to find reasonably priced airfares and hotels.
