Qantas Airlines has Los Angeles to Papeete PPT, French Polynesia on sale for $862 round trip for nonstop flights operated by Air Nui Tahiti. The last time I posted a Tahiti airfare deal was Air France $999 LAX-PPT for last minute flights in May 2015.

Departure Dates: This fare is available from November 2016 to May 2017. The maximum stay is 5 days or else the fare rises to $1,135 round trip.

The flight schedule means you depart LAX at 10:40pm and arrive in Papeete PPT 5:40am next day. The flight departs Papeete at 23:59 meaning you have five entire days and need four hotel nights in French Polynesia. You can travel to another island like Bora Bora on arrival day and departure day if you want to try out one of the more remote resorts.

High season in French Polynesia is May 1 – October 31 when the weather is drier and less humid. These are primarily low season fares, but the schedule extends into May 2017 for $862 round trip fares at the beginning of next year’s high season.
