jennybenny Posted May 20, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2016 So, is it safe to fly out at 11:45 AM on a Monday from LAX? Worried that it's too early given the unpredictability of LA traffic. Next flight out is 12:45, but do I need to go later than that? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted May 20, 2016 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2016 1pm is recommended so 12:45 would be fine. LAX is a minimum of 30 minutes from Long Beach, then add two hours for security. You'd need to be in a cab (not shared shuttle) no later than 9:15 for the earlier flight. Still rush hour at 9:15. Long Beach CBP can be very quick or excruciatingly slow.

t4jes Posted May 20, 2016 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I've noticed in the past few months the few times I've been, the drive from the freeway into LAX has been horrendous (totally backed up), adding 30-45 minutes to normal drive times. Not sure if this is always true, but I'd definitely want some extra time to be safe. LAX is not a fun airport to travel to/from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curbed side luggage check and we were at the gate in plenty of time. It's dooable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
