In 2026, a standard UberX from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) typically costs between $55 and $75, depending on the time of day and "surge" demand. This journey covers approximately 27 miles and can take anywhere from 45 minutes to over two hours depending on the notorious Los Angeles traffic. For those seeking more space, an UberXL generally ranges from $85 to $110, while the premium Uber Black service can exceed $150. For 2026 travelers, a "pro-tip" is to remember the LAX-it requirement: you cannot be picked up directly at the terminal curb; you must take a shuttle or walk to the dedicated "LAX-it" lot near Terminal 1 to meet your driver. Scheduling your ride in advance using Uber Reserve can sometimes lock in a price, but it often includes a higher base fee to account for the driver's waiting time.
