Los Angeles Airport Proposes Steep Fees for Rideshare Drivers

The Los Angeles Board of Airport Commissioners is considering a plan to charge Uber and Lyft drivers a total of twelve dollars per trip, a one hundred forty percent increase from current rates. The proposal includes a six-dollar base access fee just for entering the airport grounds and another six dollars for picking up or dropping off passengers at the terminals. The extra money would be used to reduce traffic congestion and fund improvements like the Automated People Mover train system. However, riders could face higher costs as companies often pass these fees along. The board plans to vote on this soon, and if passed, the new fees could take effect immediately.
