On a Thursday in August, my husband has to leave the resort to take his daughter to LAX to catch a flight home. Her flight leaves LAX at 12:10pm.
Not sure how much time he needs to get there.
The kids and I get to play in Disneyland while he takes her there!:D

For a Domestic flight, I would leave around 9 AM, taking 5 north (get in carpool lane) to the 91 east (via carpool exit), then get onto the 605 for a couple of miles (regular lanes) to the 105 west (get back into the carpool lane) to LAX. The drive will take around 40 to 50 minutes, and get you to LAX around 2 hours early, which is the recommend arrival time for a domestic flight to check in and go thru security and be at the actual gates around 30 minutes early.

Dad can drive back in the regular lanes on the same route, and being after 10 AM, shouldn't have too much traffic.
