Need to get an Uber, Lyft or taxi at LAX? Changes have caused headaches, but there are ways to mitigate problems and options to avoid the pickup scene.
in the last season of “Mad Men” that romanticizes the first minutes of a Los Angeles journey: Don Draper departs from a plane at LAX, hops onto a moving walkway in one of the airport’s mosaic-tiled hallways and gets into his wife’s waiting convertible outside a traffic-free terminal.
Travelers arriving at LAX should not expect this idyllic Hollywood mirage. It’s been long gone for years, even before the airport, designating those in search of a Lyft, Uber or taxi to a waiting area east of Terminal 1. The changes are meant to ease traffic around the terminal area, which airport officials said was a problem that would only grow worse without an update.and confusion over how to maneuver the new logistics have ensued. But there are ways to mitigate the problems.
Customer service representatives will be at each shuttle stop to help people board, the airport said. The waiting area and shuttles are both accessible by wheelchair. The waiting area also includes restrooms, umbrellas, phone-charging stations, and food trucks operating from 5 a.m. to 1 a.m. Those hungry after a long flight could also consider grabbing food at the airport before making the trek outside.For those hoping to avoid the eight- to 15-minute shuttle ride, a walk will take roughly three to 19 minutes, depending on the starting terminal. Travelers should look for signs outside of the terminals for directions.
