Downtown to LAX has two viable routes and both fail regularly, just at different times. Route choice on the day is worth more here than almost anywhere else in the basin.

For business travellers leaving from the Financial District, the difference between a 3pm and a 4pm departure is substantial.

What to know about this transfer

The 110 south to the 105 west is the standard route. The 10 west to the 405 south is the alternative. Our chauffeurs check both before departure.

For hotel pickups we collect from the property entrance rather than the street.

Return pickups include flight tracking and meeting at your terminal’s designated zone.
