LAX Car Service

LAX car service all-in estimates: LAX to the Beverly Wilshire $190 Business Sedan / $230 First Class SUV (12.3 mi, 25–45 min via I-405 N), LAX to Santa Monica $170 (8 mi), LAX to Century City $200 (13 mi), LAX to Hollywood $220 (17 mi), LAX to Downtown LA $230 (18 mi via I-105 to I-110), LAX to Disneyland / Anaheim $320 (35 mi). Every estimate is all-in, with gratuity, tax, and card processing included, and never surges during the Oscars, Coachella departures, or SoFi Stadium events.

Yes. LAX has nine terminals, and the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT) handles most international arrivals — Qantas, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Air France, Lufthansa, Korean Air, and more. Detailed Drivers tracks international arrivals. Airport pickups include 45 minutes of complimentary waiting for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights, starting when the flight actually lands. We track your flight. Customs and immigration processing can take 30–60 minutes or longer at summer and holiday peaks. Dispatch confirms the private-car meeting point for the booking; inside-terminal meet-and-greet with a name placard is included at no extra charge on sedan and SUV pickups, including VIP and family arrivals when confirmed.

Yes. Every LAX transfer includes real-time flight tracking across all nine terminals, with the chauffeur monitoring arrival time and dispatch confirming the assigned pickup point. Uber's own LAX page distinguishes Uber Black and Black SUV terminal curbside pickup from UberX, XL, and Comfort at LAX-it; that Uber product rule does not establish every private chauffeur's pickup location.

Your chauffeur confirms the meeting point before arrival and texts the vehicle details and location. The instruction may differ from an app pickup because LAX rules vary by product, permit, terminal, and time of day. Follow the Detailed Drivers dispatch text for the booked private-car category rather than assuming LAX-it or terminal curbside.

Beyond LAX, Detailed Drivers serves Hollywood Burbank (BUR, the studio-friendly alternate 12 miles from Hollywood), Long Beach (LGB), Ontario International (ONT, east of LA), John Wayne (SNA, Orange County), and Van Nuys (VNY, the busiest general-aviation airport in the US, for private aviation). Many travelers fly into LAX and transfer onward to Anaheim, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, or San Diego with the same chauffeur.

For standard arrivals and departures, 24 hours ahead is usually enough. Reserve earlier for early-morning departures (5–7 a.m. from the Westside, when availability is thin), awards season, Coachella weekends, and major SoFi Stadium or Crypto.com Arena events, when vehicle availability across Beverly Hills and the Westside is tightest.

Nothing changes on your end. The chauffeur tracks your flight in real time and adjusts the pickup automatically for delays, early arrivals, and diversions, with complimentary wait time built in. Airport pickups include 45 minutes of complimentary waiting for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights, starting when the flight actually lands. We track your flight. There is no surge or rebooking penalty for a delayed flight.

Yes. Detailed Drivers operates LAX car service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including red-eye arrivals and pre-dawn departures. Advance booking is required — it is a reserved service with a confirmed chauffeur and vehicle, not an on-demand app.

LAX car service pricing is a single all-in estimate with no hidden fees and no extra charge for standard luggage, flight tracking, or the included complimentary waiting allowance — the fixed price you see at booking is what you pay, with no surge pricing. You can request an instant quote before you reserve, and the reservation guarantees the vehicle and the chauffeur. Reliable pricing and on-time reliability are the point of a reserved ride over an on-demand app, especially for business travel where the schedule matters.

Yes. The diverse fleet accommodates solo passengers in a premium sedan, families needing car seats and luggage room in a full-size First Class SUV, and larger groups in a Mercedes Sprinter van or, for special occasions, a limousine. Child car seats can be added to any LAX booking on request. From a quiet ride to a Beverly Hills hotel to a multi-passenger family arrival heading to Anaheim, the vehicle is matched to the journey so every passenger arrives at the destination relaxed.

A car service to LAX from the Beverly Wilshire is $190 in a Business Sedan or $230 in a First Class SUV, all-in, for 12.3 routed miles. From Santa Monica it is $170 sedan or $210 SUV, and from Downtown LA $210 sedan. The price is set at booking and does not change with traffic or the hour.

Dispatch sets the pickup from your departure time, terminal, address and the hour. Airlines generally advise arriving about two hours before a domestic flight and three hours before an international flight, and LA traffic adds its own buffer: a weekday afternoon run from Pasadena or Universal City needs far more time than a pre-dawn run from Santa Monica. Tell us if you are checking bags or flying international and the pickup moves earlier.

Standard meet and greet is included with every Detailed Drivers airport pickup: your chauffeur tracks the flight, waits at baggage claim with a name sign and helps with luggage to the car. VIP meet and assist is an optional upgrade from $700: an airport agent meets you at the gate, escorts you through immigration, customs or security using the fastest lanes the airport allows, and hands you to your chauffeur at the curb. VIP service is subject to availability and airport approval.

VIP meet and assist at LAX starts from $700, confirmed with your quote. It covers arrivals (gate to curb), departures (curb to gate) and connections (gate to gate), and is subject to availability and airport approval. The standard baggage-claim meet and greet stays included with every airport transfer at no extra charge.

For airport pickups we track your flight, so the On-Time Guarantee follows the actual landing time: your chauffeur is waiting when you land and texts you. If they are not, we refund the full fare. The On-Time Guarantee covers every booking, every vehicle and every city, 24/7. To claim an On-Time Guarantee refund, contact dispatch with your booking details at (888) 420-0177 or info@detaileddrivers.com. Inside meet-and-greet is included at no extra charge on every sedan and SUV airport pickup; for Sprinter vans and buses it is an add-on with a second team member, quoted at booking.
