Continental · Flat-rate transfer
LAX → Marina del Rey.
You pay $145 all-in for a private Cadillac Escalade ESV from LAX to Marina del Rey, and the drive up Lincoln takes about 21 minutes. The distance is small and the clock is unpredictable, because this is a signal-by-signal crawl through Westchester and Playa Vista rather than a freeway run. Once you reach the water the address is the hard part, since the harbor is organized into lettered basins and the Ways all sound alike at the end of a long flight.

Pickup
Text us when you are at the curb with your bags and your chauffeur comes to the numbered pillar outside your terminal on the arrivals level. We watch the flight rather than the booking time, so landing an hour behind schedule costs you nothing and changes nothing. If you are coming in from overseas or moving a group, Meet and Greet is the add-on worth taking, because it puts your chauffeur in the arrivals hall with your name on a board instead of leaving you to find a car with a harbor address in your hand.
Drop-off
We drop at the Admiralty Way and Bali Way hotels, at Fisherman's Village, Burton Chace Park and the Waterside shops, and at the residential towers along Via Marina, Panay Way and Palawan Way. If you are joining a boat, tell us the basin letter and the dock gate, because those gates are coded and your chauffeur cannot follow you down the ramp, so we stop at the gate and hand the bags across there. For apartment buildings we use the front circle rather than the garage, which almost never has guest access.
Why Continental for this route
Nobody arrives in Marina del Rey traveling light. Charter guests, people moving onto a boat for a week, families headed for Mother's Beach, it all comes off the plane as four pieces and a cooler, and the Escalade ESV takes it in one load. Your chauffeur also knows the harbor numbering, which spares you the circling that makes a seven mile ride feel like twenty.
LAX to Marina del Rey, common questions
How much is a car from LAX to Marina del Rey?
$145 one way, Cadillac Escalade ESV, private, with a professional chauffeur and flight tracking. The flat 20% gratuity sits inside that number already. We do not add airport charges afterward and we do not re-price the booking.
How long does LAX to Marina del Rey take?
15-28 min off-peak. Weekday afternoons run 30-45 min, because Lincoln through Playa Vista is a light-by-light grind rather than a freeway. It is a short distance with a wide time range, which is exactly why we quote both numbers instead of one.
Can you take us straight to our boat?
We take you to your dock gate, which is as far as any car goes. The gates are coded for slip holders, so your chauffeur stops at the gate at the top of the ramp and hands the bags over there. Send the basin letter and the dock with your booking and he will be at the right one the first time.
What if our flight is delayed?
We watch the flight, not the clock on the booking. If you land two hours late your chauffeur is simply there two hours later, with nothing added for the wait. Customs and baggage time is built into how we plan an arrival.
Can you handle the trip back to the airport too?
Yes, and booking both legs at the same time is the better move on this route. The return is quoted and locked when you book it, so a busy Lincoln on your departure morning costs you minutes and not money. Your chauffeur will also know the gate or the building circle he is coming back to.
