Los Angeles International (LAX)

LAX is roughly 45 miles north, 60–90 minutes depending on traffic. Use Uber/Lyft from the LAX-it pickup lot, or pre-book a shared shuttle (Karmel, SuperShuttle Express). Allow extra time on Friday afternoons — the 405 South can be heavy.

Long Beach Airport (LGB)

A small, easy-to-navigate airport about 35 miles north, 35–50 minutes by car. Served by JetBlue, Southwest, and Hawaiian. Often the lowest-stress option from the West Coast — minimal terminals, faster security, and a quick drive down the 405 to Newport.
