Long Beach Airport Chauffeur Service
Book a sedan from Long Beach Airport starting at $130 to Downtown Los Angeles. VIP Car Service Los Angeles is based in Los Angeles and arranges your ride through vetted local affiliate operators. We serve corporate accounts, cruise passengers, and travelers heading to Orange County or the South Bay. The compact terminal makes arrivals fast compared to larger hubs.
How Pickup Works at LGB
Your chauffeur tracks your flight and meets you at the ground transportation zone just outside the open-air baggage claim. Long Beach Airport is compact, with one main terminal and a historic 1941 structure that is still in use. We include 30 minutes of waiting time for domestic arrivals. The pickup area sits directly across from the terminal plaza.
Long Beach Airport maintains a strict noise ordinance and commercial curfew from 10 PM to 7 AM. The historic terminal building was constructed in 1941 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. LGB is located about 20 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles, which makes it convenient for Orange County and the South Bay.
Drive Times from LGB
| Neighborhood | Typical Range | Primary Route |
|---|
| Downtown Los Angeles | 35-65 min | I-710 N to I-10 W |
| Santa Monica | 45-75 min | I-405 N to I-10 W |
| Beverly Hills | 50-80 min | I-405 N to Santa Monica Blvd |
| Hollywood | 55-90 min | I-405 N to US-101 N |

Rush hour on the 405 and events at the Long Beach Convention Center can push these ranges. The Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach closes downtown streets each April and affects airport access. Summer cruise season at the Port of Long Beach adds volume to downtown trips from April through October. The Aquarium of the Pacific and the Queen Mary draw steady weekend traffic year-round. The Port of Long Beach is one of the busiest container ports in the United States, which adds truck volume to the 710 corridor.
What You Get in the Fare
Every LGB transfer includes meet and greet, flight tracking, bottled water, luggage assistance, and tolls. Gratuity is not included unless your company account specifies it. SUVs and sprinter vans are available for groups or equipment travel to the port.
One Honest Limitation
Long Beach Airport has a strict 10 PM to 7 AM commercial curfew. If your flight is diverted or arrives outside curfew hours, your pickup may need to happen at LAX instead. That changes timing and cost, and we will notify you immediately if operations shift.
Using Long Beach for the South Bay, Orange County and the port
Long Beach Airport suits travelers heading to downtown Long Beach, the cruise terminal beside the Queen Mary, the South Bay or northern Orange County. From the terminal, the 405 runs toward the South Bay and Orange County, the 710 heads north to Downtown Los Angeles, and the 22 connects toward Anaheim.
Pickups are curbside at the ground transportation zone outside baggage claim. Arrivals are flight-tracked, with 30 minutes of included waiting for domestic flights, and your confirmation carries the exact meeting spot.
Typical drive times from LGB
Long Beach Airport to Downtown Los Angeles typically takes 35 to 65 minutes, while Anaheim is closer at roughly 25 to 45 minutes. Truck traffic from the port adds volume to the 710 on weekdays, so dispatch may route a Downtown trip another way at busy hours. See the Long Beach to Downtown route for fares.

A sedan handles most business arrivals. Cruise passengers with several large suitcases should book the Escalade, and groups heading to the port or a conference can share a 14-passenger Sprinter.
