What does Airport Center Parking charge compared with LAX's official lots?
| Option | Daily rate | 3 days | 7 days | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Airport Center online rate, plus $4.95 per reservation | $23.95 to $25.95 | $76.80 to $82.80 | $172.60 to $186.60 | Airport Center Parking |
| Airport Center with code CRISP26, plus $4.95 | From $21.56 | $69.63 | $155.87 | Airport Center Parking |
| Airport Center drive-up | Not published | Not published | Not published | Airport Center Parking |
| LAX Economy, free shuttle | $35 maximum; pre-book from $14 | $105 | $245 | LAX Official Parking |
| LAX terminal structures P1 to P7 | $60 maximum; pre-book from $24 | $180 | $420 | LAX Official Parking |
| 9750 Airport Blvd (LAX), 0.2 miles away | $7.95 median, 15 quotes | By date | By date | ParkingAccess data |
| South Bay Airport Parking - 105 (LAX), 1.3 miles away | $8.95 median, 37 quotes | By date | By date | ParkingAccess data |
| Travelodge by Wyndham LAX South (LAX), 1.4 miles away | $6.95 median, 10 quotes | By date | By date | ParkingAccess data |
Rates change by date. Airport Center says its rates adjust often and prints no effective date, and LAX prints none either; both were checked on September 16, 2026. LAX's 3-day and 7-day figures assume each day is charged at the daily maximum, and Airport Center's include one $4.95 reservation fee. ParkingAccess medians cover quotes from June 17 to September 15, 2026, before taxes and fees.
Airport Center's pages disagree on taxes: its FAQ says reservations include airport taxes and fees, while its offer terms say taxes and fees may apply. Covered and rooftop spaces cost the same, and when the covered floors fill, cars go to the roof.
Against LAX Economy's $35 maximum, Airport Center's lowest online rate is $11.05 a day less, or $77.35 over a week before the reservation fee. The three ParkingAccess lots in the table quoted $15.00 to $17.00 a day below that online rate. Every LAX option is compared in the LAX airport parking guide.
How does Airport Center Parking's shuttle reach LAX's terminals?
ParkingAccess measures the listing at 1.3 miles straight-line from the airport's map coordinates, a different reference point from the terminal curbs; the drive is longer. The FAQ suggests reaching the garage 2 hours before your flight and allowing 15 minutes to park, walk to the shuttle and ride. Drivers help with bags under 35 pounds, and at busy times a full shuttle can mean waiting for the next one.
One instruction conflicts. The site's terms, last updated January 4, 2022, say to text "shuttle" to 310-439-5277, but the FAQ says to call 310-641-1269, the number used on this page.
Arriving at 5960 W 98th St.
- Drive to the garage entrance at 5960 W 98th St., behind the building at 5959 W Century Blvd. RVs are not allowed, and vehicles taller than 6 feet 6 inches will not fit on the upper levels.
- At the entry kiosk, scan the QR code from your confirmation email, or, without a reservation, swipe a credit card or enter your phone number.
- Follow the garage signs to an airport parking level, then lock the car, take your keys and note any space number.
- Walk to the shuttle pick-up area in the garage and ride to your terminal's Departures level curb.
Returning to the garage from LAX
- Collect your bags at baggage claim.
- Go upstairs to the Departures level and wait at the red Hotel and Private Parking Shuttles sign outside ticketing.
- Track shuttles with the link on Airport Center's home page, or call 310-641-1269 if none arrives within a few minutes.
- Back at the garage, drive to the exit kiosk. If you stayed past your reservation, pay the balance there by card at the posted rate.
