Convention Travel

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is the world’s busiest origin and destination airport and is the sixth busiest airport in the world for passengers ranking 13th in the world in air cargo tonnage handled.

Originally known as Mines Field, the LAX site has been used as a general aviation field since 1928 and during World War II, it was used for military flights with commercial airline service having started in December 1946.

The present terminal complex was constructed in 1961 and in the early 1980s, LAX added domestic and international terminals and a second-level roadway.
