Cheap Flights from Los Angeles International (LAX) to Detroit (DTT)

Fly from Los Angeles International to Detroit

Detroit is one of the most exciting cities to visit in the United States. This mid-sized city is the largest both in Michigan and at the border between the United States and Canada, and is also a significant port for the Great Lakes thanks to its strategic location on the Detroit River. A precipitous decline in the 20th century led to vacant buildings and reduced city services, but Detroit has bounced back in style thanks to its committed city residents who have spearheaded a number of projects to revitalize the city. A thriving urban gardening movement has inspired similar efforts in other cities, and the recent installation of all-LED street lighting has made Detroit the largest municipality to sport this environmentally-conscious and energy-efficient improvement.
