New LAX Curbside Limo/Livery Pickup Locations

The new guidelines and accesses at the Los Angeles International Airport for operators are as follows, according to Stewart and airport advisories:

  • Limo/livery vehicles can still drop off passengers anywhere along the upper departure loop as usual.
  • Lower/arrivals level passenger drop-off/pickups will be relocated to the outer island curb. Inner lane access is prohibited. Zones will be identified by overhead signage and white painted curbs.
  • Limo/livery vehicles will need to share the arrival level outer curb with other TCP-licensed commercial vehicles, private vehicles from the general public, and rental motorcoach services such as FlyAway buses.
  • Chauffeurs will continue to be able to park their vehicles on lower levels of CTA parking decks and walk into the baggage claim areas to greet passengers and walk them back out to the vehicles. The only exceptions will be if certain parking decks are fully or partially closed at intermittent periods of construction, Stewart said.
  • Limo/livery services where a chauffeur waiting in the limo holding lot and arriving client text each other to arrange a curbside pick-up may encounter delays if pick-up space is limited during heavy traffic periods.

As Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) ramps up work on its modernization program, the airport today announced plans for “LAX-it,” a convenient, amenity-rich, centralized area for guests to pick up a taxi or ride app service, and avoid traffic in the Central Terminal Area (CTA). LAX-it will open at the end of October, and will remain in service until the Automated People Mover opens in 2023.

LAX-it will only be for pickups, as ride app and taxi drivers will continue to drop off passengers at the terminal curbs on the Upper/Departures Level.
“Anyone who has come to LAX knows that traffic in the Central Terminal Area can get rough, and we have heard from our guests that the current system with ride pickups can be frustrating,” said Keith Wilschetz, Deputy Executive Director for Operations and Emergency Management, Los Angeles World Airports. “LAX-it will provide an easy, efficient experience for guests using taxis and ride apps and reduce overall traffic in and around the central terminal area for all those driving to and from LAX and our neighbors.”

LAX-it is located just east of Terminal 1, at the corner of World Way and Sky Way. Accessible by either a short walk from many terminals or via a dedicated shuttle from the airport’s terminals, LAX-it will reimagine the pickup process for taxis, Uber, Lyft and Opoli with additional amenities such as restrooms, benches, umbrellas for sun and rain protection, and local food trucks. LAX-it will also offer connectivity, with cellphone charging stations and Wi-Fi. Dedicated staff at LAX-it will provide passenger assistance and lane management on site.

The shuttles will operate in a dedicated lane on the lower/arrivals level where they will not compete with other airport traffic and will take guests from any terminal to the new pickup area. Shuttles will come every 3 to 5 minutes during peak hours. They will make a maximum of 2 stops before heading to LAX-it. LAX staff will be available at each shuttle stop to help with wayfinding, questions, luggage loading and assistance for guests with disabilities.

The new shuttles and LAX-it are designed with people with disabilities in mind and go beyond regulatory compliance to be ADA-friendly. Customer service agents at each shuttle stop who will be trained to offer (and call) our LAWA ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) shuttle or to provide assistance to board our ADA compliant LAX-it shuttle if they prefer. At LAX-it, crosswalks are built at grade, restrooms allow for easy access without ramps, and an adult-changing station is available on site.

The new pickup area comes just as construction within the CTA on the Automated People Mover, terminal redevelopment, and other projects reaches a critical phase. At the height of construction, the airport projects the loss of 30 percent of the inner-lane curb space that is currently used for passenger pickup and drop off.

As the number of guests using LAX has risen, so has the vehicle count in the CTA. Switching to a central pickup point is expected to remove about 15 percent of all vehicle traffic from the CTA. Without this change, the traffic in the CTA would continue to become more congested, with increasing impacts on neighboring communities as a result of traffic backing up on surrounding access roads. With the opening of LAX-it, both guests who are using taxis or ride apps for pickup will have a better experience, while those who are being picked up by friends or family, or taking other shuttle buses to their destination, will benefit from the reduction in traffic within the CTA.

This is the latest in a series of measures LAX is taking to reduce the impact of traffic while work continues on a $14.3-billion capital improvements program that includes modernization of all nine terminals, construction of the new Midfield Satellite Concourse, and a new 2.25-mile Automated People Mover with a total of six stops, including a Consolidated Rent-A-Car facility, two intermodal transportation facilities, and connection to the regional rail system.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

It’s October, and at L.A. Private Car Service we are on a mission. We want to take the time and focus on women’s health, specifically breast cancer, and Breast Cancer Awareness. The month of October is the time to do just that.

We will be donating a portion of our October proceeds to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Our chauffeurs at LA Private Car Service will show their support by wearing the pink ribbon pins all month while our social media pages also make posts about the importance of fighting this disease.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM), also known as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM), refers to the annual international health campaign organized by major charities and organizations focusing on raising awareness and fighting breast cancer. The month of October has been selected to bring extra awareness to this disease and generate donations and financial backing to fight for treatments and ultimately a cure.

The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer. 

While navigating our vibrant city of Los Angeles, in one of our beautiful, clean luxury sedans, SUVs or even the Mercedes Benz Sprinter our passengers will not only be impressed with the punctual, courteous service of our chauffeurs and their safe driving skills, but hopefully notice the pink ribbon pins as well. It is one way we like to show our support for this month’s theme and draw attention to an important cause. In the fight against breast cancer, all of us win by doing our share, in any way or scale we can.

During the month of October, a variety of events, including walks and runs, are organized here in the U.S. and globally. Some buildings and famous landmarks can be seen illuminated in pink color. The National Football League (NFL) draws attention to breast cancer by incorporating pink on and off the field, and comic strips artists use pink on one day in some October art and drawings.

In the always on-the-go, active city of Los Angeles, the home of Hollywood and the movies, we all can play a real role in being a part of a solution and become a champion when it comes to Breast Cancer Awareness. For us Angelenos, it is a great time to focus our attention and get involved in various related activities to honor this cause by running, walking, by cheering our friends and other participants, or by attending a lecture to keep informed. For more information on related events in Los Angeles, please visit your local calendar listings such as Eventbrite and similar sites.

On your way to these amazing, unifying events, you may want to book a car with LA Private Car Service and leave the hassle of the big-city traffic and arriving to your run and walks, charity fundraising, speeches, and important outings to our expert staff. Our chauffeurs will be there to drive you home safely.

Think Pink, this October, and join us in the fight against breast cancer.
