Some questions:

All Indian?

Any decent Double Deck Blackjack?

While not in Los Angeles, Pachanga Casino or Casino Morongo I hear are quite good. Both about 1.5 to 2 hours outside of LA.

Within 30 miles of LA all you have are poker cardrooms and a couple of horse tracks. The poker cardrooms offer a b*ized form of "blackjack," but don't bother.

Drive about 80 miles and you will encounter Indian casinos, they have blackjack and maybe even double-deck blackjack, but I have rarely had any luck there. As far as I know there is no gaming authority that will keep them honest as far as having to put all the 10-cards back in the deck.

Vegas is an hour and $100 away from LAX, BUR, SNA and ONT on WN; LGB on B6; LAX is also served by a very few AA and US flights.

One of the Indian casinos is called Moron go.

I'm trying to get my S/O here (slots only player) for our B-Day. I've been trying to set up a multi-city PHL-whatever is closest to Morongo-LAS (1/23-1/27-1/31/17). I've been trying to figure this out for 2mos now. It seems like PSP. UA/AA is the cheapest from PHL and seems like and seems to be that only UA is going to LAS.
I came real close to messing this up by almost reserving a hotel by LAX b/c of a casino that is a mile away from it (I believe in El Segundo) but doesn't have slot machines.
Any good/great suggestions on how to go about this?
