Airport

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX):  LAX is 11 miles from campus. If you need a Lyft or Uber after your return flight to LAX, be aware that ride-hailing companies can no longer pick up at the curb. You'll need to take a free shuttle to the new LAX-it pickup area and meet your driver there. You can still get dropped off at the curb when arriving at LAX for your departing flight.

Directions

  • By Train: The Westwood/UCLA Amtrak Thruway is a dedicated bus connection to the San Joaquins and Pacific Surfliner trains, making Amtrak train travel seamless, easy, and economical. It’s a short walk from UCLA residence halls to get to Central Valley destinations including Fresno and Sacramento, as well as the San Francisco Bay Area, or travel the coast to places like Santa Barbara or San Luis Obispo. Simply board the Thruway bus at 592 Gayley Avenue at Strathmore Place  for a one-way co nnection to and from Amtrak stations. While this bus is used to connect to Amtrak train service, anyone who wishes to travel to Bakersfield, Santa Clarita-Newhall, and Van Nuys from UCLA/Westwood can purchase bus fare from Amtrak to take advantage of this service. For more information visit the Amtrak to UCLA website.
  • By Car:  Anticipate traffic, parking impacts and other delays. Be sure to plan ahead so you can adjust your travel times or simply share the ride.
