AT LAX, HISTORIC MILESTONE ACHIEVED THROUGH POST-SECURITY CONNECTIONS THAT ALLOW TRAVELERS TO JOURNEY BETWEEN ALL TERMINALS
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- When Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)'s Terminal 3 and Tom Bradley International Terminal connector recently opened, ticketed passengers and airport employees began enjoying unimpeded pedestrian access across LAX's terminals post-security. The new path of travel equals approximately 2-miles from Terminal 1 to Terminal 8, allowing airport guests to conveniently journey to connecting flights and an abundant collection of offerings including food and beverage vendors, shopping and entertainment experiences, lounges, children's play areas and pet relief stations, among others. This transformational moment represents the first time in the airport's almost century-long history that unrestricted terminal-to-terminal access has been available to users. The airside connectivity made possible through this recent modernization at LAX will be bolstered further when the Automated People Mover and its corresponding pedestrian bridges open in 2024.
