Hollywood Burbank Airport

Yes. Bob Hope Airport has been the airport's legal name since 2003, and it has been branded Hollywood Burbank Airport since 2017. Both names, and Burbank Airport, refer to the same airport, code BUR, in Burbank, California. It is a different airport from Los Angeles International (LAX) and from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood in Florida, so check the code on your ticket.

Hollywood Burbank Airport is about 3 miles (5 km) northwest of downtown Burbank, along Hollywood Way and the I-5 corridor. The ride is usually short outside rush hour. Universal City, Hollywood and Glendale are farther south and east, and downtown Los Angeles is reached by the I-5 freeway or Metrolink trains to Union Station.

Yes. A new terminal opened on 13 October 2026 on the northeast side of the airfield, replacing the old Terminals A and B that dated back to 1930. It has 14 gates, one ticketing hall, one central TSA checkpoint and one indoor baggage claim hall with three carousels. The main entrance moved to Hollywood Way at Winona Avenue.

Burbank has one passenger terminal. Since 13 October 2026 every airline uses the new 14-gate terminal, so there is no terminal to choose and no need to change terminals between flights. Older guides that mention Terminal A and Terminal B describe the previous building, which has closed to passengers.

No. All scheduled flights at Hollywood Burbank Airport are domestic, so there is no immigration or customs hall for airline passengers. If you are coming from abroad, you clear US immigration and customs at your first US airport, such as LAX or San Francisco, then connect to Burbank on a domestic flight.

Southwest Airlines runs the most flights at Burbank. Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, JetBlue, Allegiant Air, Breeze Airways and Frontier Airlines also fly here, and JSX operates semi-private flights. Routes reach Las Vegas, Seattle, Denver, Phoenix, Dallas, Atlanta, New York and many other US cities.

No. Even in the new terminal, passengers board and leave aircraft outdoors, walking across the apron and using stairs or ramps. Allow for this if you are traveling with small children or heavy carry-on bags, and ask your airline in advance for help if you cannot manage stairs, so a lift or ramp can be arranged.

Uber and Lyft pick up at a dedicated rideshare lot near the new terminal, opened with the terminal in October 2026. Follow the rideshare signs from baggage claim. Taxis wait in the ground transportation area outside the terminal, and rental car customers take a shuttle to the rental car center across Hollywood Way.

Yes. Burbank Airport-North station, on the Metrolink Antelope Valley Line, is linked to the new terminal by a walking path and an on-demand shuttle. Trains run to downtown Burbank, Glendale and Los Angeles Union Station. Burbank Airport-South station, served by Amtrak and the Metrolink Ventura County Line, is near the rental car center.

Rental car companies are in the consolidated rental car center across Hollywood Way from the airfield. Shuttles run between the new terminal and the rental car center, so follow the rental car signs after you collect your bags. Return your car to the same center and take the shuttle back to the terminal.

A new seven-level parking garage with more than 2,000 spaces stands directly across from the terminal entrance and has EV chargers. Valet parking operates at the new terminal, and long-term lots around the airport are linked by shuttle. Lot E closed permanently when the new terminal opened in October 2026.

For domestic flights, adults need a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or state ID, a passport or another TSA-accepted document at security. International visitors use their passport. Burbank has one central TSA checkpoint in the new terminal, so allow time at busy morning and evening departure peaks.

Hollywood Burbank Airport is on Pacific Time, the same as the rest of California. Clocks move forward one hour for daylight saving time from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. Arrival and departure times on your ticket are always local Burbank time.
