LAX Pick Up Times

What time to schedule your limo pickup going to LAX

LA Traffic Delays

Most of the trips that we provide for our clients are coming from north and east of LAX.

The 405 starts to clog up at 6:00 am and remains that way until around 11;00 am.

From Hollywood, La Cienega to La Tijera is great until about 7 am and again, the traffic lessens around 11:00 am

Scheduling a flight early in the morning or between noon and 3:00 pm is best if you want to avoid getting stuck in LA traffic.

 

A Few questions

Do you like getting to the airport early or as late as is safely possible?


Do you have TSA precheck?


Are you flying First or Business Class?

The simple answer to when you should arrive at the airport is 1 hour for domestic and 2 hours for international flights.

The formula

  • Travel time to the airport +
  • Traffic inside the airport departures level +
  • Time to check bag and acquire boarding pass if needed +
  • TSA security time +
  • Personal time (Are you the type of person that likes to be at LAX early or do you want to get out of the car curb-side, rush through TSA and jump on the plane.) 

Add all of these times together and you have your ideal departure time.

When Should I schedule my outbound flight?

The best time to schedule your flight to leave the airport around 2:00 pm when possible. If your flight leaves LAX at 2:00 pm, you will leave your house or hotel at around 11:00 am at the end of  morning traffic. 
 
Depending on where you are starting from, this will get you to LAX at around 11:00 am and all the morning flights will have departed and you feel like will have an entire international airport all to yourself.

My flight leaves at 10am...

Depending on where your flight at LAX leaves, we will be happy to make a suggestion of what time to schedule your car service to LAX.

In Los Angeles, we base travel time more based on time of day than distance.
