Parking @ LAX: https://book.flylax.com/book/LAX/Parking or LAX Official Airport Parking
Recommendations for selecting booking times and total booking periods: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/34711926-post186.html
Note also that for booking close-in and and around holiday peaks, some of the off airport lots may offer advance rates that are very competitive with the LAX operated lots.
Interactive map of LAX on-airport (Central Terminal Area) parking status is linked here (includes links to nearby off airport parking if you scroll down)
Economy and Budget Lot Shuttle Tracker (bottom link, light blue) (as of 10/25/23 it seems to mostly show Budget Lot shuttles and some Economy Lot shuttles don't show up on the tracker)
Note that parking rates in the CTA structures increased on 10/19/21.
Economy Parking (structure in part of the old lot C location) opened 10/19/21.
Prebooking is available at substantial discounts for the CTA ($22 vs $50/day) and Economy ($15 vs $25/day) parking at this link
See most recent posts in thread for prebooking discount codes offered for airport operated parking lots.
For prebooking, you must book at least 6 hours before your arrival.
For the Economy Lot, your QR code becomes active 4 hours prior to your booked arrival time
For CTA lots, the QR code becomes active 2 hours prior to your booked arrival time.
Note that access to the Economy Lot is only via Westchester Pkwy to Jetway Bl - there doesn't appear to be any shortcut via 96th.

Park 'N Fly @ Park One and LAX Lot C are permanently closed.
Lot E is permanently closed as of 7/26/21
With the limited availability of parking at LAX as travel picks back up, Van Nuys or Union Station+Flyaway bus may be a reasonable alternative:
Union Station Parking (at Patsouras Plaza) is $8/day. Make sure you're in Union Station East (the underground facility) and fill out and drop off the downloadable form if you'll be there longer than 3 days.
The Consolidated "LAX Flyaway Bus" Thread (2014 - Date) has up to date information on taking the flyaway bus; parking is $5 a day.

Newest discount: 20SUMMER for 20% off economy parking in April.
LAWA's claim is also that the same code will work for 10% off in May.

My arrival into the parking is less than two weeks out, but the pricing isn't crazy high like it's often been. It also looks like they may have removed the flat price from 5 to 8 days that they were doing before. I haven't done much systematic, but it's giving me things like add one full day and it ads $3 to the total, and then another day and it adds another $10 or so. It's also possible that it's just a random number generator...

Ditto for me. I have a trip in June that I rebooked using the new code (so it's not just for arrivals prior to 5/31/2023) knocked $50 off the prior booking made with a different code

Anyone tried booking a 3 weeks parking at Economy lot? When I did that it shows over $500 for 22 days before discount code. But if I break it up to 3 books (8 days, 7 days, 7 days), the quotes became $120, $117, $117 which is what I was expecting. I wonder if it is a pricing mistake on the site or they really don't want people to park there too long and you get an extra long term parking fee.

My need dates are 6/16 to 7/8, 22 days. If I do all 22 days, it was something like $530 or $540. The results I got when splitting into 3 parts were: 6/16 to 6/24 $120, 6/24 to 7/1 $117, 7/1 to 7/8 $117. All the numbers were before using any coupon code.

The algorithm is definitely weird - It looks like they're doing $15-16/day if you only book for a week-, but are doing $20/day for 14 days and then $30/day for each day past the two weeks. If I can find time to sit down and price out a bunch of bookings I might see what I can back out.

Today was the first time I’ve seen them put the cones out and limit entry to reservations for the economy lot. There were about 100 spots showing as available on the counter, but it was still quick to find a spot.
Not sure if it’s the 3 day weekend or that they seem to be pricing more reasonably to fill it up like that. The new spaces in ITF East will help if that ever opens.
