Where does one pickup the T4-T6 airside bus and does it operate on a fairly frequent schedule? Trying to determine if I have enough time to enjoy a TBIT lounge during a 2hr UA connection while remaining airside.

I edited the wiki to reflect the tunnels closure.

I have only flown out of TBIT and arrived at T4 (Gate 42B) since the tunnels closed, so I have no personal knowledge as to where the airside bus stops are located in T4 and T6. I can't find that information on the LAX website. According to a post on Reddit, the airside bus operates between Gate 47A and 64C. T4 is also under construction, the center of the terminal is being rebuilt, so getting between Gate 47A and the TBIT connector involves walking through a tunnel between the high and low numbered gates.

There is a report in the "LAX Terminal Construction and Landside Access Modernization Program" thread of getting to the United Club from the Star Alliance Lounge. It took him 40 minutes.

The signs have the bus going to terminal 6 then terminal 8 - but they actually only go to terminal 6.

It took me about 40 minutes total because I had to wait awhile for the transfer bus, it’s not nearly as frequent as the AA regional concourse bus.
