Most of the drive is unexciting as you are driving through the inland empire, we tend not to stop until we get out to the Palm Springs area. Other things to do.
1. Re: Driving LAX to Palm Springs. If you are arriving here on Wednesday, you are facing traffic on a totally epic level. If you truly get out of LAX by 9am, you should be relatively okay. But, by noon, you better be prepared for lots of sitting and waiting. Yes, it's about a 2-2.5 hour drive, with no traffic.
This is the route we take monthly and took earlier this week at 10 am into Palm Springs area from LAX. It takes about two hours on a weekday morning. The van rental place will give you directions to the 105 freeway, a few blocks away from LAX. Take the carpool lane on the 105 E, the 605 N, the 60 E until it merges into the 10 E.
The shared van services that serve LAX (www.primetimeshuttle.com and www.supershuttle.com) can take you to Palm Springs, but it will cost close to $200 and will take hours - its not much more to fly, at least on a flight that makes one stop. Non-stops from LAX to Palm Springs are very expensive.
9 years ago. The best time of day to drive LA to Palm Springs on a weekday, is about 11AM. No later than noon or 1PM. Certainly no later than 1PM. I do this drive bi-monthly. I would get at least an hour away from LAX before considering to stop for lunch/something to eat.
The 105 Century Freeway intersects the 405 near LAX, connects to the 605, which connects to the 60 or 10, thus avoiding having to take the 10 through downtown.
We drive to the Palm Springs area about every month. We are a few miles from LAX, and leave same time as you. So we start at the base of the 105 freeway heading west. You'll get on it from the car rentals a mile or two away. You can drive in the car pool lanes with 2 in a car. Very easy. Head north on the 605 when the 105 runs out.
Well, the "easiest" and most straight forward is to take I-10 east from Palm Springs to the 605 freeway south in LA, then the 605 south to the 105 freeway west to LAX. . However, as you can see that route is entirely via highway / freeway in LA, but the good news is that its relatively fast and keeps you out of the worst traffic areas around downto
