LAX airport transfer in Los Angeles, reserved curb to curb from 31 areas

The desk reserves rides from 31 Los Angeles areas to Los Angeles International Airport, and an LAX airport transfer in Los Angeles through it starts from $85 for a sedan from Westchester, Venice or Mar Vista and climbs with road miles to $150 from Sunland and Tujunga. Per car, one way, with the airport's pre-arranged pickup charge, fuel and road charges inside.

9 of the 31 areas sit nearer to LAX than to Hollywood Burbank by road, all of them on the Westside or in the south of the city.

Two hard-shell suitcases and a carry-on on a wide sidewalk at the edge of an empty pickup lane under a concrete overpass at night — Bags at an outer curb under a concrete deck: the car pulls up here, and the driver stays with it.

Off the plane at LAX, then which curb

After you land, collect your bags and cross to the outer curb of the lower level, outside baggage claim: that is where pre-arranged cars wait at LAX, and the driver stays with the car. If you would rather be met inside with a small name sign, ask in the request; it happens only if the company confirms it in writing, and its quote names any charge for it.

The company's written confirmation says where to meet at terminal level and which car to look for. Going out, the driver drops you at the departures level of your terminal. Put the flight number in the request: it helps the company time the pickup around your landing.

Miles run from the 2020 population center of each area to the terminal curb, by road. Fares are per car, one way, every required charge inside; tip is up to you. No written quote passed by the desk goes above $250 for one ride.

Black three-row SUV with headlights on at the curb before a two-story house with a lit porch, before sunrise — A 6 a.m. departure means a pickup in the dark from most of the Valley.

First flights, early morning

The desk opens at 4 a.m. because the first flights leave LAX soon after 6 a.m. From Sylmar that is about 42 minutes of road in light traffic; from Venice about 14. Ask for the pickup hour in the request; the company's written confirmation states the time.

The desk passes your request on. One California charter-party carrier quotes the fare in writing, sends the car and collects payment; its name and state permit number appear on every written quote. The desk never bills a rider; this site takes no payment, and the form asks for no card.

The form costs nothing to send and binds you to nothing. A reply follows within one hour while the desk is open (4 a.m. to 11 p.m. Pacific), or by 5 a.m. for a request sent overnight. How your details are used · Reservation terms

LAX questions

Terminal changed after booking?

Write or call the desk with the new terminal; the desk passes it to the company within one hour while open, or by 5 a.m. overnight.

Leaving town: at which level does the car stop?

At the departures level of your terminal, the upper roadway. Coming home, the pickup is on the lower level.

Is the LAX pickup charge extra?

No. It is inside every LAX starting fare on this page, and inside the written quote.
