I'd prefer 1 stop maximum, which may limit my options, and a 3-4 day visit over Labor Day would work best for work schedules.

Thanks!
Your "one stop" best option is going to be to FAI, which you can get to via any So Cal airport with one stop. Any more obsure destination will (most likely) require two stops and have a not-improbable chance of travel disruptions.
