If you depart from NYC on 25 December the absolutely cheapest ticket on the market is with Asiana Airlines - They start at $799. Delta Airlines start off at $849, which is the same as Korean Airlines offer. However, these cheap tickets are probably already gone but if I were you I would check out Asiana’s, Delta and Korean Airlines webpage.

Don’t wait too long on deciding and purchasing your tickets though – you might end up with only having some even more expensive alternatives to choose from.

Delta doesn't actually fly to LOS. But they do sell tickets, acting a ticket broker for Korean Airlines, mainly, and sometimes also Eva and China Airlines! I bought my tickets from them last time. Flew Korean thru Korea to BKK. On the way back, it was very confusing, because I assumed that I was flying Korean, but it turned out that I was flying Eva out of BKK to Taiwan. In Taiwan it got even crazier, with people all telling me to go elsewhere. The security guys just laughed and waived me thru the security checkpoint after the first couple times, I went back and forth so many times, between the gates and the ticket counters. Finally, figured out that I was now on China Airlines from Taiwan to US, and made it to the right gate just before departure. The problem was that my tickets said Delta, but nobody knew who was really flying me because Delta is a US carrier that doesn't fly to China, Korea, or LOS!
