The carriers most likely to serve this pairing are Southwest Airlines. Our agents book across all of them and will tell you when a connecting itinerary is meaningfully cheaper than a nonstop.
Covering 5,834 miles, the flight runs around 11h 48m nonstop. On sectors this long, one-stop itineraries through a hub are often priced well below the nonstop and add only a few hours; the agent will show both.
For long-haul travel, mid-January to March and the shoulder months of October and November usually bring the lowest fares; June through August and the December holidays cost the most.
Midweek travel almost always beats weekends on price here. If your dates are flexible by a day or two, tell the agent; shifting a Friday departure to Thursday or a Sunday return to Monday is the single most reliable way to cut the fare.
For international travel, booking two to five months ahead usually gets the best fares; inside three weeks, prices rise sharply. Peak-season travel in summer and over the December holidays should be booked as early as possible.
