Los Angeles International Airport, also known as LAX, is one of America's busiest airports. It has a variety of parking options depending on your needs as a traveler.
LAX has a variety of types of parking including indoor valet, outdoor valet and self-parking of both the indoor and covered variety. These types of parking are located both on-site and off-site, such as on the premises of local hotels.
The parking varies depending on the type of parking chosen and the duration the car is parked. Rates range from $6.95 per day for off-site, uncovered parking to $39 per day for valet parking in the terminal, as of 2010.
Selecting parking for your trip, if you are departing from LAX, means budgeting and thinking about your needs. A woman flying solo for a short distance might want the safety and security of valet parking at the terminal, despite the $38 per day fee. A family departing on a long journey may want cost reduction and choose the cheapest option, even if it is off-site.
