I need to leave my car at LAX for about a week. Who has the best rates? I see you can park at the airport lots for cheaper than outside lots, are they not as safe? Thanks

I park at Lot C for periods of a week at a time on a pretty regular basis. I've never had a problem with safety while parking there and have never heard of one. It's relatively cheap at $7 per day. Lot B is $5 per day but is a little farther away.

We park in Parking Lot B, mentioned above at $5 per 24 hours, They have a shuttle that takes you to the terminal every 10-15 mins.

Don't forget to leave extra time for Lots B&C, especially in the morning when tons of airport workers are trying to get to their jobs... those buses can get quite crowded and you may have to wait for the next one (also, the way it works generally is that one shuttle picks you up in the parking lot and drops you off at the depot where another bus takes you to the airport).

Cheers, :-)

What time in the morning are the tons of workers trying to get to their jobs at LAX?

I use to park a car (long term rental car) in Lot C almost weekly. It was pretty easy to get to the terminal, however I found that the car would be covered in soot (or whatever you would call it) since it is right at the end of the north runways.

On the other hand, try parking as far west as you can in lot C (also look for the ILS lighting for the runway) and wait for a 747 on approach.

The problem (my main .....) with the LAX lots (B&C) is: You can wait too damn long fopr the busses, they are often overcrowded as noted here, but, if on a late arrival you can wait 20-30 minutes curbside.

Aampco or wally park or auto LA parking are much more reliable.

I park at the Crown Plaza hotel on Century Blvd. It is a covered garage and, if you are a member of the AAA you can park for $8.50 a day. Their shuttle runs to the airport quite frequently.
