LAX

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) provides numerous accessibility services and has a dedicated ADA website designed to assist travelers with disabilities to plan their travel and navigate the airport.

•    All LAX terminals have elevators between levels, ramps at entrances, and accessible restrooms with extra-wide stalls and grab bars.
•    Companion care restrooms are available in Terminals 2, 4, 5 and 7, and in the Tom Bradley International Terminal.
•    Wheelchair service is provided free of charge by your airline and should be requested from them 48-72 hours in advance.
•    Airlines are required to provide curbside wheelchair service upon request. On your return flight, remind a flight attendant near the end of your flight that you will need a wheelchair upon arrival. A ground team attendant will bring the chair to the aircraft door and assist through the entire process of customs/immigration (for arriving international flights), baggage claim, and to your ground transportation pickup point.
•    Every LAX terminal has tactile paving and braille signage for the visually impaired.
•    Hearing loop systems are provided at information desks and gates.
•    Service animal relief areas are provided both pre- and post-security.

LAX-it

LAX-it is a free, ADA-accessible courtesy shuttle service for senior and disabled travelers that takes rideshare and taxi passengers from each terminal to the LAX-it Lot. Shuttles stop at each terminal approximately every 10 minutes.

•    Travelers can board the shuttle at the green LAX-it sign pillar on the Lower/Arrivals Level in front of each terminal, adjacent to baggage claim.
•    There are two types of LAX-it shuttles, large and small. Large buses are low floor (no stairs) and feature wheelchair ramps. Small buses have steps and are equipped with a wheelchair lift.
•    For additional assistance, e-mail laxit@lawa.org in advance of your arrival at LAX.

Metro

Metro strives to ensure that all services on its 200+ bus and rail routes are fully accessible to all riders, including those with disabilities.

•    Every rail station has a ramp, walkway or elevator to the platform. If an elevator is out of service, you may take a bus to the next station at no cost. 
•    For vision-impaired Metro Rail riders, braille and tactile signs are posted at station entrances. Additional signs are posted in all subway stations on the sides of stairs and escalators near the platform to indicate the direction the train is traveling. There are Automated stop announcements on buses and trains. 
•    At Metro rail station turnstiles, an entrance on the left is designated for persons with disabilities, marked with a wheelchair symbol. If you’re unable to tap your cards at the turnstile, a hands-free intercom is provided to access assistance from an attendant.
•    There are no securement devices for mobility devices on Metro trains. Use designated areas marked with a wheelchair symbol and set brakes or turn off power while riding.
•    On Metro buses, most mobility devices, including scooters and power chairs, can be accommodated if they fit safely on the ramp and within the securement area. The general requirement is that the mobility device must fit on the ramp and be able to maneuver to the wheelchair securement area (30” x 48”). Two wheelchairs are allowed on the bus at a time.
•    Service animals are welcome on-board Metro buses and trains.

Access Services

Access is a curb-to-curb shared-ride service that operates on the same schedule as most buses. The service is available for any ADA paratransit eligible individual to any location within ¾ of a mile of any fixed bus operated by L.A. County public fixed route bus operators; and within ¾ of a mile around Metro Rail stations during the hours that the systems are operational.
Regular service is offered from 4am to midnight, seven days a week. Limited service is available from midnight to 4am. One-way fare is based on the distance you travel, with a maximum fare of $3.50 (except to/from and in Antelope and Santa Clarita Valleys).
