Question
 Hi Steve,
 Just an easy question.
  I have an upcoming trip going through LAX, and a very close connection (less than 2 hours)on the return.
  I'll be coming into the international terminal, then going to terminal 6 domestic.
 Can I walk from the international terminal to terminal 6, are their sidewalks?, Is it far? does the terminal shuttle bus run clockwise or counterclockwise?
   thanks........dax

Answer
Hi Dax,

Frequent, free shuttle bus service is provided between terminals (approximately every 12 to 15 minutes) to assist travelers in getting from one terminal to another. To use this service, board the Airline Connections "A" Shuttle under the LAX Shuttle & Airline Connections blue sign on the Lower/Arrival Level islands in front of each terminal.

If you decide to walk from one terminal to another, please look at the terminal map first at www.lawa.org/lax/terminalMap.cfm to get an idea of how far you need to go.

You could walk, but I personally would take advantage of the (counterclockwise) shuttle service. Even a hundred or two hundred yards can be difficult with luggage.

Hope this helps,


Steve
