Los Angeles International Airport - LAX

LA has quite a few airports! The closest options are LAX and Burbank. LAX is typically cheaper due to the sheer number of flights coming in and out, but it gets very congested (nine terminals!). There should be easy public transportation to and from Downtown LA in time for the wedding (thank you Los Angeles Olympics!). However, if you're looking for a more lowkey, easy travel experience, you can fly into Burbank for a bit more money and with less public transportation options. It's smaller and considered very easy.
