The Inglewood/LAX Metro Micro has expanded its service to 5am to 9pm, 7 days a week. It doesn't actually go into the CTA, but it is easy to catch on either side of Sepulveda, at the bus stops just past Century Blvd. You can probably take the LAX-IT shuttle and walk across the street if you do not feel like walking from the terminal. It is currently only $1 each way, and will take you to quite a few places in the vicinity (see the map). It is basically an on-demand bus booked via the app, usually a minivan.

Suggested destinations within reach with the Micro include the Purple Orchid, a fun tiki bar in El Segundo, as well as Playa del Rey Beach and Dockweiler Beach. For car enthusiasts, the Zimmerman Driving Museum is also quite close, in El Segundo. The Flight Path Museum operated by LAX is also well worth a visit for aviation geeks. You could also get within walking distance to the Hollywood Park Casino, if you need to do some gambling (cards games only). There are a plethora of restaurants in this area as well, with far better and cheaper food than you will find at LAX or In-and-Out. For touristy food options, Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles and Randy's Donuts are also within range in Inglewood (and very close to each other).
