When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in November around $694 and peak in December near $1,860, 168% dearer, across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 22 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under Air China, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $694 for 14,137 km each way, that works out to about $25 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $42 per 1,000 km that ultra-long-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 15 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Kuala Lumpur, this fare ranks 3rd — 52% above the $456 from Madrid. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 31 routes of similar length we watch out of Los Angeles, where the middle fare is $800. The best time to be in Kuala Lumpur: May–Jul.

Good to know
LA → KUL, answered.
Is $694 a good price for Los Angeles to Kuala Lumpur?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $820 round-trip and this fare is 15% under it. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Los Angeles to Kuala Lumpur?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Kuala Lumpur are May–Jul — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LA → Kuala Lumpur?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Kuala Lumpur?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Air China. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
