Serving nearly 승객 9천만 명 a year, Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is the second-busiest airport in the country and the fourth-largest in the world. 

LAX는 승객들의 더 나은 여행 경험을 제공하기 위해 몇 가지 대대적인 변화를 추진하고 있습니다. 혼잡을 줄이기 위해 LAX는 공항 고가 열차 건설을 시작했습니다. 이 프로젝트는 2023년 개통 예정인 140억 달러 규모의 프로젝트입니다.

As a result of this effort, LAX prohibits rideshare services like Lyft, Uber & Taxis from picking up passengers outside of the terminal. The new area is called LAX it — or “LAX Exit.” 

Airport officials promise that this process is as smooth as ever. However, some passengers would say otherwise.

LAX에서 Uber 픽업은 어떻게 되었나요?

LAX에서 픽업을 변경하기 전에 승객은 도로변에서 히치하이킹을 할 수 있습니다. 이제 승객들은 더 복잡한 과정을 거치게 됩니다. 새로운 픽업 장소로 이동하려면 셔틀을 타야 합니다. 작동 방식은 다음과 같습니다.

When you land at LAX, you would call a Taxi or open the Lyft or Uber app and request a car. If there is confusion, the app will give you further instructions on how to request a ride. Once you exit the terminal, you will get on one of the shuttles to the pick-up area. Airport officials point out that the pick-up area is a short walk from terminals 1,2,7 and 8. The sidewalks have added signage to help you navigate your way to the new area. If you are hailing a taxi, there will be a taxi stand at the pick-up destination. 

셔틀 탑승 시간은 얼마나 되나요?

The shuttles arrive every three to five minutes. Officials say that the longest shuttle ride will be from Terminal 1, which will be around 15 minutes.  

To help expedite the shuttle travel times, LAX is changing the inside lanes on the arrival level to bus-only lanes. 

이론적으로 승객은 공항이 가장 바쁜 날에도 터미널에서 나온 후 30분 이내에 Lyft, Uber 또는 Taxi에 도착해야 합니다.

셔틀은 ADA 승인을 받았나요?

예, 셔틀에는 장애인도 탑승할 수 있습니다. 셔틀이나 픽업 구역에는 경사로, 계단, 연석이 없습니다. 또한, 셔틀에는 휠체어용 고정 장치가 있습니다. 고객 서비스 직원은 필요한 사람을 지원하기 위해 각 셔틀에서 기다리고 있습니다.

새로운 픽업 지역은 어떤가요?

The pick-up area is a sectioned part of the LAX parking lot — east of Terminal 1. The parking lot now has bathrooms, umbrellas, phone charging spots, and food trucks. It is said to have a capacity for over 2,600 cars an hour. Airport officials also say that it has lines that hold over 93 Uber and Lyft vehicles that can pick up riders at the same time. The taxi stand can hold over 40 taxis. 

또한, 픽업 장소에서 직원들이 연중무휴 24시간 대기하여 승객이 짐을 들고 차량에 싣는 것을 도와드립니다.

It seems like LAX-it is the answer to stressed travelers’ prayers, right? Well, not exactly. Let’s see how it measures up. 

여행자들은 새로운 LAX-it에 대해 어떻게 생각하나요?

While this change intended to make getting a ride from the airport more manageable, it seemed to make the process more confusing. Passengers complained that the customer service was poor and there were long wait lines. 

Due to traffic gridlock and overcrowded shuttles, customers expressed that it took them longer to get a ride than it did to fly to Los Angeles. One of the main problems with the new system is customer confusion. Many struggled to figure out how to get to the pick-up area. Also, the ridesharing lines were unorganized and difficult to distinguish.  

Customers were also alarmed at the long wait times for their rideshare service. Once flyers got to the pick-up area, they waited more than an hour to get to their ride. If that wasn’t bad enough, travelers were also stunned at the surge in pricing. According to one LAX 전단지, a typical rideshare trip that cost around $30 before LAX-it, now costs up to $70 plus tip. On busy days like Friday, customers can expect to pay about 150% more. 

LAX-it은 여행을 더욱 스트레스로 만드는 것 같습니다. 다행히 GoRide는 LAX 터미널에서 고객을 태우고 내려주는 것이 금지되지 않습니다.

GoRide 셔틀 서비스는 어떻게 다른가요?

Lyft 및 Uber와 같은 택시 및 차량 공유 서비스와 달리 GoRide Shuttle 운전사는 기존 시스템과 마찬가지로 LAX 터미널 도로변에서 승객을 픽업합니다.

You would request a driver using the GoRide Shuttle Service app and wait between the inner and outer lanes of the arrival levels. No crowded shuttles or long lines. Private curbside pick-up makes getting a ride easier and less hassle. GoRide is not a Rideshare service and you can easily communicate directly with your driver. If your flight is delayed, you can contact them with a direct phone number. 

GoRide Shuttle Service is also safe and reliable. Ridesharing services have come under fire for its 안전성 문제. 하지만 GoRide를 이용하면 차량 공유 서비스가 아니므로 목적지까지 안전하게 도착할 수 있으니 안심하셔도 됩니다. 우리의 전문 운전자 팀은 면허를 취득하고 보험에 가입했으며 오랜 신원 조사를 거칩니다.
