After a chaotic first week, LAX will expand Uber, Lyft and taxi pickup lot

, Los Angeles International Airport will significantly expand the new pickup lot for Uber, Lyft and taxis, officials said Monday.banned Uber, Lyft and taxi pickups from the curbside

The rollout of the system was rocky, leaving some travelers facing gridlock, packed shuttles and long wait times for rides during peak periods. Officials later apologized for the delays, which they described as “unacceptable.”

Gessus what a nightmare. Ever heard If it aint broke dont fix it ? Ok flyLAXairport idyets. Why not finally put surfridge area to use as a pickup / drop off area ? Like mayor hahn suggested - oh a decade ago? This is what happens when bearucrats are put in charge-chaos

Side effects of LAX include suicidal thoughts or actions, outbursts of hostility or intense anger, depression, hallucinations, pain and swelling, and vomiting. Don't go to LAX if you are pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant as it may harm or kill your unborn child.

I understand removing Uber/Lyft from flyLAXairport, but removing taxis is a mistake. What idiot developed LAXit - probably a middle-aged dude without a smart phone. I could’ve designed a better option in my sleep. 🙄

widening the lane from the west on the lower level that leads to the pickup lot would helps a bit too. i mean, LAX can't do better than one lane?

Just like Uber warned them? Publicly told lax this would happen?

The fatal flaw in the new system is that the surrounding streets cannot handle the volume of traffic. It takes drivers 20-30 minutes just to get out of the holding lot, then another 15-20 minutes waiting in line for the pickup zone.

If only everyone could have seen this happening.

Burbank can hold on advertising meanwhile.

L.A... Has crowds on all its streets...

Lol

or just go back to the old system

LAX's new system for Uber, Lyft and taxi pickups is plagued with long waitsOn Sunday night it took more than an hour for taxis to drive to the LAX rideshare pickup lot from a waiting zone that's about a five-minute walk away. This is nuts. I mean, at least keep the cabs at the airport! I actually parked at one of those lots this time instead of trusting that I could get home from the airport. Wish I lived closer to John Wayne. Solve a problem by making a bigger one. Sounds like something LAX usually does It’s a NIGHTMARE!! Was hugely disappointed!! Perspective, is EVERYTHING too...I get that!! No Kidney in Coolers at this debacle! Plan on LONG lines! Hopefully, garyvee & TeamGaryVee has already come up with an Alternative Approach!! goodvibesonly✌️
