LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (LAX)

DEVIATION FROM OVER-OCEAN OPERATIONS

Three Nights Every Two Weeks
12 AM – 6:30 AM

 

Deviation from Over-Ocean Operations is expected to occur every two weeks for three nights (12 AM – 6:30 AM) due to the closure of south outboard runway 25L/7R for routine maintenance.

Specific dates of the deviation are as follows:
May 29 – May 31, 2018 (Tuesday – Thursday)
June 11 – June 13, 2018 (Monday – Wednesday)
June 25 – June 27, 2018 (Monday – Wednesday)

Whenever possible, the FAA transitions LAX air traffic flow to Over-Ocean Operations from 12 AM to 6:30 AM, wherein aircraft arrive and depart over the ocean to minimize noise disturbance to the communities directly east of the airport. During this traffic flow, the south runway complex is utilized primarily for departures while the north runway complex is utilized primarily for arrivals.


Since Aircraft Design Group VI aircraft (A380 and B747-800) can only depart on two runways, 25L/7R and 24L/6R, at LAX due to limited spacing on the airfield, the closure of Runway 25L/7R on the south complex requires these aircraft to depart on Runway 24L/6R on the north complex, which would conflict with aircraft arrivals on the same runway complex during Over-Ocean Operations. Therefore, deviation from this traffic flow may be required whenever Runway 25L/7R is closed.

Residents may notice a change in aircraft flight activity and noise as a result of this periodic deviation. Thank you for your understanding and patience during this circumstance.

This notice is part of Los Angeles World Airports’ effort to notify communities of temporary changes in aircraft operations and associated noise that may affect their areas.
