Long Beach Private Car Service for LGB Travelers
Long Beach Airport stays small on purpose. Strict city noise rules limit how many airline flights it can handle, so its historic Art Deco terminal has a much calmer feel than LAX. That makes LGB a favorite for travelers headed to Long Beach, the South Bay, and the cruise ports.
When you land, your driver meets you curbside and takes care of the bags. You ride privately and non-stop with your own group, never in a hotel van or a shared airport shuttle. We’re a second-generation family business, and every one of our drivers is trained in-house.
Cruise Port Transfers, Handled
Flying in the day before your cruise, or heading home after one? We drive between LGB, the Long Beach Cruise Terminal, and the World Cruise Center in San Pedro, with space for a week’s worth of luggage. Tell us your sailing time and we’ll plan the ride around it.

Long Beach Airport (LGB) Questions, Answered

In 2026, Southwest added Seattle and Portland, and Alaska added Seattle starting in September. Check your airline for current schedules.
What is LGB airport?
LGB is the airport code for Long Beach Airport, the city-owned airport at 4100 Donald Douglas Drive in Long Beach, sometimes called Long Beach Municipal Airport. It’s known for its historic Art Deco terminal, named a city landmark in 1990, and for being a smaller, easier alternative to LAX.
How busy is Long Beach Airport?
Long Beach Airport stays relatively calm because the city’s strict noise ordinance limits the number of daily airline flights and schedules them between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. Holidays, summer weekends, and cruise days can still bring crowds. Xpress Shuttles runs 24/7, so early departures and late arrivals are covered.
Where is the Uber pickup at Long Beach Airport?
Rideshare pickups at Long Beach Airport are at the outer curb island in front of the terminal, not at the baggage claim curb, so follow the signs and your app’s instructions. With Xpress Shuttles, your driver meets you curbside outside the terminal at a flat rate you reserved ahead.
How far is Long Beach Airport from LAX?
Long Beach Airport is about 20 miles from LAX by car, though traffic on the 405 can make the drive much longer. Many travelers compare fares at both airports, and Xpress Shuttles drives between them for connections or to reach a better flight. Enter your pickup and drop-off locations online for an instant flat-rate quote.
How far is Long Beach Airport from Disneyland?
Disneyland is about 18 to 20 miles from Long Beach Airport, depending on where you’re staying in Anaheim. Xpress Shuttles provides private, non-stop rides from LGB to the Disneyland Resort and nearby hotels, with room for strollers and luggage. Larger groups can reserve vans for up to 14, minibuses for up to 28, or coaches for up to 52.
Is there a shuttle from Long Beach Airport to the cruise terminal?
Yes. Xpress Shuttles offers private rides from Long Beach Airport to the Long Beach Cruise Terminal next to the Queen Mary and to the World Cruise Center in San Pedro. Instead of a shared shuttle, you get a vehicle for your group with room for cruise luggage. Share your sailing time when you book and we’ll schedule around boarding.
Can I get from Long Beach Airport to the Catalina Express?
Yes. Catalina Express ferries to Catalina Island leave from landings in Long Beach and San Pedro, and Xpress Shuttles can drive you straight from LGB to either one. Give us your ferry time when you book so we can plan pickup with time to check in. Book online and save 7% with code Online7, or call 1-866-381-4510.
