The LAX to Disneyland drive time is hugely dependant upon traffic.

In moderate traffic, the LAX to Disneyland drive time will be around 45 minutes. In heavy traffic, this could increase to around 90 minutes.

Black $158.37

Black SUV $198.80

Lux $241.75

Remember that all of these prices are estimates and will vary according to time of day and demand. If you request an Uber at a busy time you will pay a higher rate.

New rules for Uber in California mean that you will now be given a “price range” estimate.

In other words, you can no longer exactly predict the price of your uber in California before the end of the journey.

Can Uber Pick You Up at LAX?

Fortunately, LAX does allow Uber to pick up directly on site. However, this is only for Uber Black, Black SUV, or Lux.

If you select any other option including UberX, XL, Comfort, Select, or Pool, you will have to walk or take the shuttle to the UBer-it pickup point.

Really, having traveled from LAX many times the traffic outside the airport is an absolute nightmare! I can see why the more efficient system is to have a set point for Uber pick up.

In theory, the Uber shuttles arrive every 5 minutes. In practice that varies! Anyone who has ever been to LAX will know what I mean!

There are a number of different Uber shuttle pickups at LAX. If you want Uber X your pick-up is curbs 2,3 or 4. 

If you are taking a Comfort, Uber XL, Select, or Uber Pool you go to the back portion of curb 2.

Pickups with Uber from LAX now use the PIN system if you request an Uber X/ Don’t be concerned about this as it works well and is not complicated.

These steps apply between 8 am and midnight.

You have to follow these steps if you want to take an Uber X from LAX.

  1. Go to the Uber app and request your trip. You will get a 6 digit personal identification number (PIN)
  2. Go to the Uber X PIN pick up location at curbs 2,3, or 4. You will need to join the line
  3. Tell your Uber driver your PIN
  4. Make sure you verify driver and vehicle details before you get into your Uber X car.

If you just want to make it easier for an Uber from LAX to Disneyland request an Uber Black or Uber Black SUV so that you can get picked up directly outside LAX. The cost, of course, is more, but you may want to pay for the convenience.

Is an Uber From LAX to Disneyland a Good Option?

Disneyland Attractions to Avoid

I have many years of experience traveling from LAX and using Uber. I have tried other options and Uber usually wins. 

Your other options are to rent a car from LAX. If you are traveling internationally and arriving from another country I would suggest you really think about this.

Driving in LA is difficult. Traffic is best described as horrendous and unless you are used to driving in US cities just avoid it.

Also, if you are flying in from Europe you will be experiencing jet lag, so you really don’t want to get on an LA freeway in a rental car when you have no clue what time zone you are in.
