Hollywood Burbank (BUR) Airport Car Service

BUR sits about 3 miles northwest of downtown Burbank and roughly 12 miles north of downtown Los Angeles, accessible via Interstate 5, SR 134, and US 101. The airport is owned by the Burbank Glendale Pasadena Airport Authority and operates from a single passenger terminal, with a replacement terminal under construction on the north side of the property. Our chauffeurs stage at the commercial vehicle lane outside the terminal curbside.

BUR was officially known as Bob Hope Airport from 2003 to 2017 before being rebranded as Hollywood Burbank Airport. Many longtime travelers and pilots still refer to it by the Bob Hope name, and search results show both names interchangeably. The FAA identifier BUR has remained constant throughout the rebranding history.

Warner Bros. Studios, Walt Disney Studios, NBC, and Nickelodeon Animation Studio all sit within a 5 to 10 minute drive of BUR via Hollywood Way, Olive Avenue, and Alameda Avenue. This is the primary reason industry travelers prefer BUR over LAX for studio meetings, table reads, and casting sessions. We run dozens of these short studio transfers weekly.

Yes. We run a dedicated awards season operation each January through March covering the Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, SAG Awards, Critics Choice, and Grammy Awards. Standing studio and agency accounts get priority dispatch, dedicated chauffeurs, and routing that accounts for red carpet street closures around the Dolby Theatre, Beverly Hilton, Microsoft Theater, and Shrine Auditorium.

Yes. Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk run about 10 to 15 minutes from BUR via US 101 southbound. We handle theme park drop offs, return pickups, and full hourly service for visiting executives staying at the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City or Sheraton Universal.

Yes. Pasadena and the Rose Bowl run about 20 to 25 minutes from BUR via SR 134 eastbound to Interstate 210. Rose Parade week (late December into January 1) and Rose Bowl game weekends generate heavy demand, so book ten days ahead. We also handle UCLA football home game nights and Tournament of Roses corporate events.

Yes. BUR to LAX runs 45 to 75 minutes via Interstate 405 depending on traffic, BUR to Long Beach (LGB) runs about 60 to 80 minutes, BUR to John Wayne (SNA) runs about 75 to 90 minutes, and BUR to Ontario (ONT) runs about 60 to 75 minutes via SR 134 to Interstate 210. These transfers between airports are common for international travelers connecting through LAX.

Yes. Hollywood Bowl sits about 15 to 20 minutes from BUR via the Cahuenga Pass, and we handle pre concert drop offs, intermission service for box ticket holders, and post concert pickups that beat the Highland Avenue exit crush. Friday and Saturday concert nights from June through September fill our calendar quickly.

Our BUR fleet includes Mercedes Benz S Class and BMW 7 Series sedans for executive travel, Cadillac XTS sedans for standard airport runs, Cadillac Escalade ESV and Lincoln Navigator L SUVs for talent and group transport, and Mercedes Benz Sprinter vans for production crews. Mercedes Maybach, Bentley Flying Spur, and stretch limousines are available on advance booking for premiere arrivals and awards ceremonies.

Yes. Dispatch runs around the clock with a live human on the line, and we operate red eye arrivals, 4 am production calls, and overnight wrap pickups regularly. Late night service is standard for our BUR operation since film and television production schedules don't respect business hours.
