Typical, per Google Maps, from the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal

How long is the drive from the cruise terminal to LAX?

The San Pedro cruise port to LAX time depends on the day and the hour far more than on the miles. Each reading below starts at the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal, 100 Swinford St, and ends at LAX: typical ranges from Google Maps checks made on October 8, 2026 for Tuesday, October 13, Friday, October 16 and Sunday, October 18, 2026. Every pickup time for a San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX car service on this page is worked out from them. The quickest check was 3:30 AM; the slowest was 7:00 AM.

Early weekday mornings are the slow stretch: the 7:00 AM check ran up to 1 hour 5 minutes, more than twice the 28-minute top at 3:30 AM. Every check from 2:30 PM on, and both Sunday checks, stayed within 40 minutes. We measured from the terminal only, so from a hotel or home elsewhere in San Pedro, allow extra time.

Late in the day, the slow direction is into the port. In the Tuesday checks, the afternoon queue built on the road toward San Pedro, not away from it: 24–40 minutes from the terminal to LAX at 3:00 and 4:30 PM, against 40 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes from LAX to the terminal at 5 PM.

Drive times are typical ranges from Google Maps checks made on October 8, 2026 for Tuesday, October 13, Friday, October 16 and Sunday, October 18, 2026, from the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal, 100 Swinford St, to LAX. Starting fares are from iRide360's own booking engine; each trip is priced to its pickup address and fixed at booking; tolls and taxes included; gratuity optional. Cruise terminal details are from the Port of Los Angeles.

Departures

How early should you leave the cruise port for LAX?

How early to leave San Pedro cruise port for LAX comes down to your airline's check-in rules, the drive at that hour and the time it takes to get off the ship with your bags. Airlines generally ask for 2 hours at the airport before a domestic flight and 3 before an international one. From that arrival time, each row subtracts the slower of two readings (nearest your arrival at LAX, and nearest the pickup), then a 20-minute buffer, rounded down to 5 minutes.

  • Rows without a day use the Tuesday readings; Friday and Sunday rows use that day's own checks.
  • *8:00 AM row: the 4:50 AM start is 70 minutes from the nearest check, so it uses that nearer, slower 6:00 AM drive (up to 50 minutes). Sunday 12:00 PM row: the 10:00 AM arrival falls midway between the two Sunday checks, so the slower 9:00 AM one (up to 40 minutes) is used. 10:30 PM row: nothing was measured after 6:30 PM, so it uses that reading (up to 35 minutes).
  • These times cover the drive, not the ship. Book the pickup for when you expect to be ashore with your luggage, and call dispatch at (833) 743-3360 if that slips. Check-in and bag-drop cutoffs set by your airline outrank this table.

San Pedro pickups

Where can you be picked up in San Pedro?

Our black car service in San Pedro collects at the cruise terminal, the waterfront hotels and any home in town. Many travelers still call the terminal the World Cruise Center; a booking for a World Cruise Center to LAX ride goes to the same address.

Los Angeles Cruise Terminal

Berths 91–93, 100 Swinford St, at Harbor Blvd and Swinford St. The terminal has two buildings, so put your ship's name in the booking.

Catalina Sea and Air Terminal

Berth 95. Same street address as the cruise terminal, so say at booking which of the two you are leaving from.

Battleship IOWA Museum

Berth 87, 250 S Harbor Blvd. Its entrance is on 1st Street off Harbor Blvd; give that as your meeting point.

DoubleTree by Hilton San Pedro – Port of Los Angeles

2800 Via Cabrillo Marina, 90731. Time the pickup for after checkout.

Crowne Plaza Los Angeles Harbor Hotel

601 S Palos Verdes St, 90731. The car comes to the hotel entrance.

Private addresses

Any home in ZIP code 90731, or 90732 to the west, gets the same San Pedro car service, with the first 15 minutes of waiting free.

Things to know before you leave for LAX

A few cruise-day habits keep a San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX car service on schedule.

  • Make sure it is the right port. Long Beach runs a cruise terminal of its own, separate from this one. If you book before you sail, check your cruise documents; for Long Beach, use our Long Beach cruise terminal page.
  • Count suitcases, not only people. Cruise packing fills a trunk fast. Two travelers with four large cases need the luxury SUV.

How to get from San Pedro cruise port to LAX: car service vs. Uber, taxi or shuttle

There are five usual answers to how to get from San Pedro cruise port to LAX: a pre-booked private car, rideshare, a San Pedro cruise port to LAX taxi, a San Pedro cruise port to LAX shuttle or public transit. The San Pedro cruise port to LAX Uber fare is worked out by the app when you request it; an iRide360 fare is fixed when you book. With cruise luggage, the deciding points are who sets the price, how long the driver waits and who lifts the bags.

Frequently asked questions

San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX car service FAQ

The questions travelers ask before booking a San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX transfer, grouped in the order they usually come up.

Prices

How much is a car service from San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX?

A San Pedro Cruise Port to LAX car service with iRide360 starts at $155 for an executive sedan and $180 for a luxury SUV. Your exact fare depends on the pickup address and the vehicle, and the booking page shows it before you pay. Tolls and taxes are already included, and gratuity is optional.

Is there a flat rate from the San Pedro cruise port to LAX?

Yes. Every iRide360 booking carries a San Pedro cruise port to LAX flat rate set at checkout, and it holds even when the 7:00 AM drive runs past an hour. It changes only if you change the trip, for example by adding a stop, switching to the SUV or keeping the car past the free 15 minutes.

How much does an Uber cost from the San Pedro cruise port to LAX?

Only the Uber app can price a San Pedro cruise port to LAX Uber ride, because it sets each fare by demand at the moment you request. We don't publish rideshare fares. An iRide360 fare is fixed when you book, from $155 in the executive sedan, and your chauffeur waits 15 minutes at no charge.

How much is a taxi from San Pedro to LAX?

A taxi from San Pedro to LAX runs on a meter, so the fare depends on the traffic and the time on the day; the cab company can tell you more. We don't quote taxi fares. Unlike a San Pedro cruise port to LAX taxi, an iRide360 car is priced before you leave the port, from $155, and a slow morning on I-110 doesn't change it.

Getting there and timing

How do I get from the San Pedro cruise port to LAX?

A booked private car, a rideshare, a taxi, a shared shuttle or Metro buses and trains all answer how to get from San Pedro cruise port to LAX. Book iRide360 and a chauffeur is waiting at the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal at the time you chose, then drives you to your airline's curb on the upper Departures level.

How far is the cruise port from LAX, and how long is the drive?

The San Pedro cruise port to LAX distance is about 21–23 miles by road, mostly on Interstate 110 North and Interstate 405 North. The San Pedro cruise port to LAX time typically ran 22–28 minutes at 3:30 AM and up to 1 hour 5 minutes at 7:00 AM on a Tuesday, and 24–40 minutes on a Sunday at 9:00 AM, per Google Maps.

How early should I leave the cruise port for an LAX flight?

For a 1:00 PM domestic flight on a Sunday, leave the cruise terminal around 10:05 AM. How early to leave San Pedro cruise port for LAX depends on the hour: a weekday 9:00 AM flight needs a 5:35 AM pickup, because the early-morning drive runs longest. International flights need an extra hour at the airport.

What if I don't know when I'll be off the ship?

Book the pickup for the time you expect to be off the ship with your bags, and call dispatch at (833) 743-3360 if that changes. We can't predict when a ship releases its passengers. The first 15 minutes of waiting are free and waiting beyond them is charged, so a later pickup beats an early one.

Where will you drop me at LAX?

Your chauffeur drops you at your airline's terminal on the upper Departures level, the Tom Bradley International Terminal included. Add the airline and flight number when you book a San Pedro cruise port to LAX airport ride, so the car heads for the right curb. Terminals can change, so check flylax.com before you fly.

Port names

Is the World Cruise Center the same as the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal?

Yes. World Cruise Center is the older name many travelers still use for the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal at Berths 91–93, 100 Swinford St, San Pedro. Book a World Cruise Center to LAX ride with that address. A search for a ride from the Port of Los Angeles to LAX usually means this same terminal.

My cruise ends in Long Beach. Is this the right page?

No. Long Beach has a separate cruise terminal of its own, and this page covers the Los Angeles Cruise Terminal in San Pedro. Your cruise documents name the port your ship returns to. If it is Long Beach, use our Long Beach cruise terminal page so your chauffeur goes to the right place.

Shuttles

Is there a shuttle service from the San Pedro Cruise Terminal to LAX?

Shared shuttles are one option, but a San Pedro cruise port to LAX shuttle may stop for other passengers, and each operator sets its own fares, times and pickup points. iRide360 runs private cars, not a shuttle: only your party rides, at a fare known in advance.

Service and vehicles

Is there a black car service in San Pedro?

Yes. iRide360 runs a black car service in San Pedro with executive sedans and full-size luxury SUVs, licensed by the California CPUC as TCP 43833-A. If you searched for San Pedro cruise terminal to LAX car service, this is it: pickups at the terminal, the waterfront hotels and homes in ZIP codes 90731 and 90732, at any hour.

Which vehicle fits our cruise luggage?

Pick by suitcases: the luxury SUV takes up to 5 passengers and 5 bags, against 3 and 3 in the executive sedan. Two travelers with four large suitcases already need SUV service from San Pedro cruise port to LAX. Parties larger than five ride in two or more cars on one reservation.

Do you offer an airport transfer from the cruise terminal?

Yes. A pre-booked San Pedro cruise port to LAX transfer includes 15 minutes of free wait at the terminal, a chauffeur who handles your bags at both ends and drop-off at your airline's Departures curb. Book it with your ride from LAX to the port, and both legs are settled before you sail.

Can I get a child seat?

Yes. Each booster, forward-facing or rear-facing seat is from $25; tell us the type and how many when you book. Every chauffeur is trained in child safety and in installing car seats, and the seats are in place before the car reaches the terminal. A sedan booking takes up to 2 seats, and an SUV booking up to 3.
