Christmas and holiday limo & car service

Holiday travel should be about the people you are with, not traffic, parking and airport lines. Happy Shuttle provides holiday limo & car service across California, with chauffeured black sedans and SUVs for private rides and vans and buses for families and groups. We have served Southern California families since 1993, and our team answers 24/7, including on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day.

We cover airport runs to LAX, Hollywood Burbank (BUR), Ontario (ONT), Long Beach (LGB) and John Wayne (SNA), plus rides to family dinners, holiday shopping and light displays across Los Angeles, the San Gabriel Valley, Orange County and the Inland Empire. Traveling from Northern California? We also cover San Francisco (SFO), Oakland (OAK), Sacramento (SMF) and Napa.

Thanksgiving airport rides

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026, and the days before and after it are among the busiest of the year at LAX, Ontario, Burbank and John Wayne. A private ride takes you straight from your door to your terminal, with no parking garage, no shuttle from a remote lot and no rideshare line on the way home. See our Thanksgiving airport rides for more on holiday-week trips.

Christmas and New Year airport rides

Christmas Day is Friday, December 25, 2026, and New Year’s Day is Friday, January 1, 2027. Students coming home, relatives flying in and families heading out on winter trips all travel the same few weeks. We pick up from homes, hotels and offices and drive you to your terminal, and we meet arriving flights at LAX and other Southern California airports. Our sedans, SUVs and 7-seat minivans fit everyone from solo travelers to families with a full load of gifts and luggage. For New Year’s Eve, book a ride to your party and home again so nobody has to drive after midnight.

Holiday light tours and shows

Many families book us for an evening of holiday lights: a light display at a local garden or park, a decorated neighborhood, a holiday concert or a shopping trip to The Grove or South Coast Plaza. Book by the hour and your chauffeur drives you from stop to stop and waits in between, so nobody has to hunt for parking and the kids can enjoy the lights without a long walk back to the car. Plan a holiday light tour in a sedan or SUV for a small group, or in a van or minibus for the whole family.

Family and group vans and buses

Holiday groups come in every size. Our 7-seat minivans and 9- and 12-passenger vans keep a big family together on the way to the airport or a holiday dinner. For office parties, church groups, team outings and family reunions, our minibuses seat 15 to 35 passengers and our coach buses seat up to 55. One booking moves everyone together, and everyone gets home safely after the celebration. Larger groups? Ask us, and we will match the vehicles to your headcount and schedule.

Visiting family: meet-and-greet at the airport

Relatives flying in for the holidays? We will meet them at the airport and bring them to your door. Send us their airline, flight number and number of bags when you book, and we will choose the right vehicle: a sedan, an SUV, a 7-seat minivan, or a 9- or 12-passenger van for bigger families. Meet-and-greet is available, child car seats are available on request, and pets are welcome. Our team speaks English, Mandarin and Spanish.
