Terminal by terminal
You pick the meeting style at booking. Curbside means your chauffeur waits on the lower Arrivals level outside your terminal. Our LAX meet and greet for Hawthorne riders puts the chauffeur inside the terminal with a sign carrying your name. At the Tom Bradley International Terminal, look for your chauffeur in the arrivals hall once you clear customs, or at the lower-level curb. You can skip the LAX-it lot; it is for rideshare, and iRide360, as a prearranged licensed operator, meets you at the terminal. If you can't spot each other, dispatch is at (833) 743-3360.
Terminals 1–8
Lower-level Arrivals curb outside your terminal, or inside the terminal with a name sign if you choose meet-and-greet.

Frequently asked questions
The questions travelers ask before booking a LAX to Hawthorne transfer, grouped in the order they usually come up.
Prices
A private iRide360 ride from LAX to Hawthorne starts at $104 in an executive sedan and $126 in a luxury SUV. Our six Hawthorne quotes ran $104–$109 for a sedan and $126–$131 for an SUV, rounded up, with Hawthorne Blvd at Rosecrans Ave the highest. Tolls and taxes are included, and the gratuity is your choice.
A Hawthorne to LAX car service fare depends on your pickup address and vehicle, and the iRide360 booking page shows it before you pay. Our own quotes ran from LAX into Hawthorne: $104–$109 for a sedan and $126–$131 for an SUV. Tolls and taxes are part of the fare, and demand never raises it.
No, traffic does not change an iRide360 fare between LAX and Hawthorne. The price is locked when you book, and all six of our Hawthorne quotes were identical at 11 AM on a Tuesday and 5 PM on a Friday. The fare changes only if you change the trip: another address, the SUV, an added stop, child seats or LAX waiting past the free hour.
Getting there
You can travel from Hawthorne to Los Angeles by private car, rideshare, taxi or shuttle, and the right choice depends on where you are going. For LAX, the airport is about 5 miles from Hawthorne City Hall. If you are working out how to get from Hawthorne to Los Angeles airport with bags, a pre-booked car collects you at your door and drops you at your airline's curb.
The cheapest way to get home from LAX changes with the day and the provider, so compare shuttles, rideshare and taxis when you land, since each sets its own prices. iRide360 is a private car service, not a budget option. Our fare to Hawthorne is fixed at booking, shown before you pay, and includes tolls and taxes.
iRide360 does not run an LAX to Hawthorne shuttle; we drive private, pre-booked cars that carry only your party. Shuttle companies set their own routes, stops and prices. With iRide360, your chauffeur meets you at your terminal and drives straight to your Hawthorne address with no other passengers; Hawthorne City Hall is about 5 miles from LAX.
Timing
The drive from LAX to Hawthorne City Hall typically takes 10–22 minutes at 8 AM, 11 AM and 10 PM on a Tuesday, per Google Maps. The slowest check, 5 PM on a Tuesday, showed 12–26 minutes. Saturday at 2 PM was the quickest, at 9–18 minutes.
Hawthorne City Hall is 5.3 miles from LAX by road, via W El Segundo Blvd, per Google Maps. The distance from LAX to Hawthorne's south end, at Hawthorne Blvd and Rosecrans Ave, was 6.2 to 6.6 miles. Heading back, Google Maps usually took W 120th St, a 4.5-mile route from City Hall to LAX.
Leave central Hawthorne about two and a half hours before a domestic flight and about three and a half hours before an international one. For a 9:00 AM domestic flight, book a pickup around 6:30 AM; for 6:00 PM, around 3:30 PM; for an 11:00 AM international flight, around 7:25 AM. Each time covers the airport buffer, the slow end of the nearest Google Maps check and 10 minutes of margin.
At LAX
Your iRide360 chauffeur meets you at your own terminal, either at the lower-level Arrivals curb or inside with a name sign if you chose meet-and-greet. At the Tom Bradley International Terminal, the meeting point is the arrivals hall after customs, or the lower-level curb. If you can't find each other, call dispatch at (833) 743-3360.
No, iRide360 riders never need the LAX-it lot, which is the airport's rideshare pickup area. iRide360 is a prearranged, licensed operator, so your chauffeur comes to your terminal. Your bags go straight into the car, and the short ride to Hawthorne starts from the curb.
If your flight is delayed, your iRide360 pickup shifts with it at no extra charge. Dispatch follows the flight number you gave at booking and sends the chauffeur for the actual landing time. If the airline moves you to a different flight, call (833) 743-3360 with the new number.
Your chauffeur waits 60 minutes after your flight lands at LAX, free of charge, which leaves time for baggage claim. After that hour, waiting costs $1 per minute. When we pick you up in Hawthorne for the trip back to LAX, the first 15 minutes of waiting are free.
Alternatives
Whether a limo is cheaper than Uber depends on the trip, since rideshare prices move with demand and a pre-booked car's price is set in advance. Compare both before you travel. iRide360 offers the private, chauffeured airport limousine experience in black executive sedans and luxury SUVs, not stretch limousines. From LAX to Hawthorne, our fare starts at $104 for a sedan.
A Hawthorne cab service runs on the meter and Uber fares change with demand, so neither price is known before the ride. At LAX, rideshare pickups use the LAX-it lot, and taxis load at the airport taxi line; LAX's official website has taxi details. iRide360 fixes your fare at booking, from $104 for a sedan, and meets you at your terminal.
Service
Yes, iRide360 is a Hawthorne black car service for airport rides in both directions, using black executive sedans and full-size luxury SUVs. We hold California CPUC charter-party carrier license TCP 43833-A and pick up or drop off at any address in ZIP codes 90250 and 90251.

Vehicles
iRide360's executive sedan takes up to 3 passengers and 3 bags, and the luxury SUV takes up to 5 passengers and 5 bags. Choose by bags as well as people: a family of four with checked suitcases fits the SUV better. Mention strollers or oversized cases when you book so we send the right vehicle.

Booking
