That was such a GOOD VIDEO! So informative to locals like myself who never go on public trans., but especially for tourists! I really do hope travelers have a chance to see this and feel more at ease when coming to Los Angeles. Btw, I loved how you FF through the flight of stairs while giving the viewer an opportunity to see what it’s like. Helping that man out was you’re good deed of the day!

Thank you so much 🙏. One of the worries that people usually have is getting to the airport on time here you're on a rail avoiding the freeways. It takes just under an hour and for less than the cost of a soft drink.

As a student I had to travel from LAX to Long Beach in 1979, we were on a roundtrip on Eastern Airlines (wonderful). Our cab driver took 40 $ at that time. The shuttle could have helped us a lot.

Thanks for sharing this video. It looks like a great service. I didn’t realize that the light rail goes all the way to LAX, even having seen the trains thunder down the 105 freeway. It looks as if it’s possible to board a train as far away as Azusa (the A line) and, with a single stop at the Rosa Parks station, travel to LAX. I imagine such a trip would take at least 90 minutes to two hours.

Another option for the trip between the “C” (formerly Green) Line and downtown Los Angeles is changing at I-105/Harbor Freeway to the “J” (formerly Silver) Line which is actually a bus. This bus (also known by its route numbers 910 and 950) uses the Express Freeway Lanes and can take you to San Pedro (950) or to DTLA (both). It also continues through the city to Union Station and El Monte.

Too bad we can not just go to Aviation Station and take the shuttle (if they sell a ticket) without riding a green line. I know it is by design. LAX traffic is really terrible to drive in. We need to expand more metro in to Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside etc. New high speed train from LA to SD at least , maybe let private sector, if city/county cannot, do it like in Japan, will be great investment and huge time savers. Wishful thinking.
