The airport is 5 miles from the Strip; ride-shares and taxis take 10–20 minutes from the Strip ($15–25). There is no rail link.The Las Vegas Monorail does not serve the airport. RTC bus Route 109 connects the airport to the Strip ($2, 20–30 min), but luggage handling is inconvenient. Hotel shuttles from major resorts are the most hassle-free option and often free for guests.
LAX has no direct rail link to downtown. The closest option is the free LAX Shuttle G to the Metro C Line station at Aviation/Century Blvd (fare $1.75 to Union Station, 40–50 min). Taxis use a meter; expect $35–55 to downtown and $30–45 to Santa Monica. Ride-shares cost $20–45 depending on destination and surge pricing.Rental car facilities are a short shuttle ride from terminals. FlyAway buses run to Union Station, Van Nuys, Hollywood, and Westwood ($9.75–11.25). For LAX Connect (the new people mover to Inglewood), check if it has opened at time of travel.
