How far is it between terminal 2 (arrival) and 6 (departure) and can it be done air-side?
It's been 10+ years since I flew through LAX and it was a horrible experience last time. Just trying to plan!
Yes you will need to collect your bag, if its been tagged to the next onward flight then once you clear immigration, collect your bags and go past customs, transfers will be clearly shown. As you are arriving at TBIT once you exit the bag drop area the should point you to the transfers security which I've found very quick. This brings you back upstairs Airside where you can following the walkway/tunnels to your desired terminal. Follow the signs
