(It will probably be higher when you summon the vehicle). At present, at 9 pm (when there is no traffic), the ride-share fare including tip would be $52. No matter which method you chose, get off the 950 at the Beacon St & First Street stop, and turn left and enter the parking area for the port. There is no luggage storage on the 'C' train so if the train is crowded, you might have to keep your luggage on your lap or at your feet and if you can't get a seat, you'll have to put your luggage on the floor. It's faster than the previous transfer (1 hour, 20 minutes versus about 2 hours).Ĭons: It's more complicated (3 conveyances versus 2). Pros: It's less expensive than the previous transfer. Take the train eastbound and get off the train at the Harbor Freeway Station and transfer to the 950 bus there. You can pay this in cash or use a debit/credit card. But, you'll also need to buy the reusable TAP card for a total cash outlay of $6.25. So, that would be $1.75 for the train ride and $2.50 for the bus or a total fare of $4.25. Ascend into the elevated station and buy the fare for the 'C' (green) train as well as the 950 bus and load these onto your TAP Card.

The other option is this one: Ride the free "Metro C Line" shuttle bus that pulls up in front of each terminal and get off at the LAX/Aviation metro rail station (the only stop that the shuttle makes after leaving the airport). And, if you use this option, you'll need to either buy a virtual TAP card or enter Union Station and buy a TAP card/fare there (which wastes some time and energy).ī. The buses pull up near one another in the same bus plaza so the transfer is easy.Ĭons: It's more expensive than the other option (see below for that). Just two conveyances - the Flyaway and the 950. There are pros and cons to this transfer: From there, it's a few steps to transfer to the above-mentioned 950 bus use your TAP card to pay the fare. The route ends at the Patsouris Bus Plaza (no, we can't pronounce it, either) which is behind Union station. The fare is $9.75 (credit or debit card only - no cash) and the bus, which has luggage storage, pulls up in front of each terminal every 30 minutes. Take the Union Station Flyaway Bus to Union (Train) Station in downtown L.A. Okay, so here are the two methods of transfer:Ī. You can buy the card/fare by downloading the app (it's a virtual card in that case) or you can buy the card/fare when you arrive in L.A. You must load $2.50 in cash onto a TAP (transit) card to pay this fare. The 950 is an unusual bus because it doesn't allow passengers to pay the fare in cash. The problem with this renaming is that lots of people liked the old name and so they continue to call it the Silver line.Īs such, the agency now uses both names on it along with the route number(950) The "old name" of this bus was the Silver line but when the transit agency did away with colors to identify the routes and replaced them with the letters, it became the "J" line. The bus has always been the # 950 but because it's an express bus which runs frequently, it has the secondary name that parallels the way metro rail lines are named. This bus has a complicated name because the public transit agency has changed the way in which buses are named. No matter which option you choose, the last part of the transfer will involve riding on an express bus known as the metro J Line (silver) 950. There are two ways to do this and they vary in terms of cost and transfer time. Yes, but it would be more complicated than one simple bus.
