Los Angeles → Los Angeles: key facts

A private transfer from Los Angeles Airport (LAX) to Los Angeles costs $100 per car for 1–3 passengers and $140 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 32 km via I 110 and I 105; the drive takes about 30 min with clear roads, so plan on 30–40 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver meets you at the terminal your flight lands at (Terminals 1 to 8 or Tom Bradley International Terminal B), on the Lower/Arrivals Level by baggage claim, holding a sign with your name, and walks with you to the car at the outer curb outside baggage claim. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Downtown Los Angeles is the historic and business centre of the city, with City Hall, Pershing Square, the Historic Core, Little Tokyo, the Arts District and Union Station. It lies about 27 km north-east of the airport. The usual route leaves LAX via Century Boulevard and follows either the I-105 and the Harbor Freeway (I-110) north, or the I-405 and the Santa Monica Freeway (I-10) east. Both freeways are heavily used, and the morning and late-afternoon rush hours can double the driving time.

Downtown is laid out on a grid, and most hotels stand along Figueroa Street, Grand Avenue, Flower Street and around Pershing Square, or in the newer district around the convention centre in South Park. Cars can drive up to hotel entrances everywhere; there are no car-free zones, but many streets are one-way. Union Station and Olvera Street are on the north-eastern edge, Little Tokyo lies east of City Hall, and Bunker Hill with its museums and concert halls rises west of the Civic Center.

Public transport instead: LAX FlyAway (Los Angeles World Airports) bus FlyAway Union Station from Lower/Arrivals Level of each terminal (blue FlyAway signs) to Los Angeles Union Station (Patsaouras Transit Plaza, Bus Stop 1), every 30 min, 5:40 AM to 1:10 AM from LAX. LA Metro free LAX Shuttle + K Line + E Line from pink LAX Shuttle stop, Lower/Arrivals Level to Downtown Los Angeles (E Line stations, e.g. 7th St/Metro Center), 2 changes.
