Frequently asked questions
- How much is a car service from LAX to Santa Monica?
- The one-way transfer is quoted live from your exact pickup and drop-off addresses. At roughly 10 miles the run falls within the sedan transfer minimum, with luxury SUVs, First Class SUVs and Sprinter vans priced per vehicle class — enter your addresses for the exact price before you reserve. There is no surge pricing, and the rate is identical Santa Monica to LAX.
- Can I book a car service from Santa Monica to LAX?
- Yes. The flat rate is the same in both directions — Santa Monica to LAX and LAX to Santa Monica. Book it as a one-way transfer and we track your flight on the return, adjusting the pickup to the actual landing time at no extra charge.
- How long is the drive from LAX to Santa Monica?
- The drive is roughly 10 miles via Lincoln Boulevard or the 405, typically 20–30 minutes off-peak and 35–50 minutes in weekday traffic. Your chauffeur monitors conditions and your flight, so the pickup time adjusts to the actual landing time.
- Is the price the same from LAX to the city and back from the city to LAX?
- Yes. The flat transfer rate is identical in both directions — LAX to the city or the city to LAX — because it is calculated from the same mileage. Enter your pickup and drop-off addresses for the exact live quote; there is no surge pricing either way.
- How much is a round trip, and can I book both legs at once?
- A round trip is simply two one-way transfers. Book the return as a separate reservation so each leg gets its own chauffeur, flight tracking and pickup time. Enter each leg's addresses for an exact quote before you reserve.
- Do you track my flight for the LAX pickup?
- Yes. We monitor the flight number on every airport reservation and adjust the pickup time automatically for early or delayed arrivals at no extra charge. Your chauffeur is dispatched based on the actual landing time, not the scheduled one.
- Where does the chauffeur pick up at LAX?
- Curbside pickups happen on the arrivals (lower) level outside your terminal — your chauffeur pulls up at the nearest pillar and texts the vehicle color, make and plate. Add meet & greet ($25) and the chauffeur parks in the terminal garage and waits inside baggage claim with a name sign.
- How much free wait time is included?
- Domestic arrivals include 30 minutes of free wait time after landing and international arrivals include 60 minutes, so clearing customs or a slow baggage claim never costs you extra.
- What is your cancellation policy?
- Cancellations are free up to 2 hours before the scheduled pickup time. Card details are held securely at booking and nothing is charged until the trip is completed.
