LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (LAX) 

SOUTH COMPLEX OUTBOARD RUNWAY 25L/7R CLOSURE

 

 

LAX will temporarily close the south outboard runway (25L/7R) to perform maintenance between 12:30 AM and 6:30 AM on the following dates:

  • May 1, 2025, Thursday
  • May 12 - 15, 2025, Monday to Thursday
  • May 27 - May 30, 2025, Tuesday to Friday

Persons living near LAX may notice a change in aircraft flight activity and noise during these closures as the FAA may delay commencement of nighttime Over-Ocean Operations at LAX for up to about an hour on these dates. The closure of runway 25L/7R limits the runway availability for Design Group VI aircraft to operate at the airport and can cause a potential conflict with this traffic flow. Thus, the delay is necessary to allow these aircraft (if any) to depart LAX between 12 AM and 1 AM before commencing the over-ocean traffic flow.

 

Thank you for your understanding and patience during this temporary condition.
