Airport Transfers
Private transfers from Burbank Airport (BUR) to Burbank, Universal City, Hollywood, Glendale, Pasadena and downtown Los Angeles, booked before you land.
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Hollywood Burbank Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Our Burbank airport transportation takes you from Hollywood Burbank Airport to hotels and homes in Burbank and its studios, Universal City, Hollywood, Glendale, Pasadena, the San Fernando Valley and downtown Los Angeles.
Burbank airport transfers start at baggage claim in the new terminal, where your driver meets you as set out in your confirmation, with no wait at the rideshare lot. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the price for the whole vehicle is fixed before you fly.
Choose a sedan for two, an SUV or a van for a family or group with luggage, and we drive you door to door to your hotel, home or studio in Burbank, Universal City, Hollywood, Glendale, Pasadena or downtown LA. Heading on to Santa Monica, Malibu or Anaheim? Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered.
Our Burbank airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not a shared ride that stops at other hotels along the way. It has room for suitcases, strollers and production gear, and suits families, groups and film crews arriving together.
From private sedans to group vans. One fixed price per vehicle, whatever your party size.

Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR), also called Bob Hope Airport, is a domestic airport in Burbank, north of Hollywood. Since 13 October 2026 every flight uses one new terminal with 14 gates, entered from Hollywood Way at Winona Avenue; older directions to Terminals A and B no longer apply.
There are no scheduled international flights, so there is no immigration or customs here: travelers from abroad clear US entry at their first US airport. You leave the aircraft outdoors, as Burbank has no jet bridges, and collect your bags in a single indoor baggage claim hall with three carousels.
Burbank is on Pacific Time and changes its clocks for daylight saving time.
US entry. International visitors need a valid passport and a US visa or an approved ESTA. Burbank only has domestic flights, so immigration and customs happen at your first US airport.
Burbank, not LAX. BUR is a separate airport from Los Angeles International (LAX) and from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood in Florida, so check the code on your ticket.
New terminal. The terminal moved in October 2026 and the old Terminals A and B closed, so follow the new signs and your confirmation rather than older maps.
REAL ID for the flight home. Domestic flights need a REAL ID-compliant license, a passport or another TSA-accepted ID at security.
