Where to find your Bakersfield Shuttle at LAX

Getting picked up or dropped off at LAX doesn’t need to feel overwhelming. Whether you’re arriving or departing, here’s what to expect.

Pickups at LAX:

Most airport shuttles collect passengers curbside on the lower level, just outside baggage claim. Keep an eye out for the green “FlyAway, Buses & Long Distance Vans” signs. Your confirmation email will specify the exact island and zone for your terminal.

Drop-offs at LAX:

Shuttle drivers will drop you right at the terminal entrance on the upper departures level, putting you only a few steps from check-in. It’s especially convenient if you’re traveling with children or hauling extra luggage.
