LAX Airport Town Car Transfers
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) handles 88+ million passengers annually — the third-busiest airport in the United States. LAX sits 18 miles southwest of downtown LA. The airport's new Automated People Mover (APM) connects terminals to a consolidated car rental and rideshare facility, but professional town car service bypasses this entirely with direct terminal-level pickup.
Your Detailed Drivers chauffeur meets you at LAX baggage claim with a name sign and walks you to the vehicle in the commercial staging area — no APM shuttle, no LAX-it lot, no hunting for your ride. Flight tracking is automatic on every arrival. 60 minutes complimentary wait time included.
Book your LA airport transfer at least 24 hours in advance.
