A great way to save money if you live in SoCal is to fly out of LAX. But what do you do if you don't live in L.A.?

A great way to save money traveling is by flying out of LAX, where flights can be cheaper than flights out of SAN, ONT, IPL, etc. To make the most of these deals, here are some hotels near LAX where you can park for an extended period while you fly off for "business".

The "Park and Fly" prices include a one-night stay, which can be used the night before you leave or the night you get back, and from seven to 21 days of parking, depending on where you stay. Prices can vary by season and availability, and discounts such as AAA may be available. Covered parking is sometimes available on first-come, first-served basis. Most hotels offer complimentary transportation to LAX. Most of the toll-free numbers are nationwide reservation numbers, while the local numbers will put you in touch with the hotel directly.

OK...how much is the Hilton for one night of parking and fourteen nights with the Hilton sisters? Are any discounts availble?

I was wondering how long before any one caught that "typo"

Don't forget that Sunrise Parking is only about $72 for 10 days, and they shuttle you back and forth. Be sure to use coupons on their website.

The Hacienda hotel has raised their prices to $119.00 for a one night stay and 10 days parking.

It is still cheaper for me to drive up to LAX and catch a flight out of there, than it is to fly into LAX from my local airport.
