Sedan or SUV airport transfer in Los Angeles: two sizes to reserve for LAX or Burbank

A sedan or SUV airport transfer in Los Angeles is all the desk reserves for rides to Los Angeles International Airport and Hollywood Burbank Airport. Two sizes, both driven by the charter company that confirms your ride. Pick by riders and suitcases, not by taste; the fare follows the size.

Gray sedan in a driveway beside a stucco wall with bougainvillea, trunk open with two suitcases and a carry-on — Two suitcases and a carry-on in a sedan trunk, with room left for one more case.

Sedan, three riders

Up to 3 riders. About three suitcases plus small bags in the trunk. Starting fares from $85 to $150, depending on the area and the airport.

Black three-row SUV at a palm-lined curb with the hatch up, four suitcases and a golf bag behind the third row — Four suitcases and a golf bag behind the third row of an SUV.

SUV with three rows

Up to 6 riders, or 4 riders with the third row folded down for more luggage, a golf bag or a stroller. Starting fares about 35 percent above the sedan, at most $205.

Why only two sizes

Every ride the desk reserves stays under $250 for one car, one way, which keeps each request simple: one car, one written quote, one payment to the company. The largest car the desk reserves takes six riders.

Which size fits is mostly about suitcases. A pair riding with two full-size suitcases plus two carry-ons fits a sedan; the same two riders with a golf bag or a big stroller do better in the SUV with the third row folded. Four riders always need the SUV. If you are unsure, choose “Not sure yet” in the form and list the luggage: the desk asks the company for the smaller car that fits, which is also the cheaper one.

Child seats, surfboards and strollers go in the request; the company says in writing what it brings. Compare fares on the starting fares page, or send a request now.
