Airport Lot Guide

LAX cell phone lot

Cell Phone Waiting Lots: Two lots, one at 6217 96th Street (off Jetway Boulevard) and one at 5800 W. Century Boulevard. Time limit: 120 minutes. Cost: Free. Checked Oct 21, 2026.

Waiting for an arriving passenger

Wait in the cell phone lot until the person you are collecting has their bags and is at the curb, then drive to arrivals. Drivers must stay with the vehicle, and no shuttle serves either lot.

If you would rather park and meet them inside, the cheapest lot is LAX Budget Parking at $5 per hour, $20/day max; the full list is on LAX parking.
