Not yet. No robotaxi can take you from LAX to Disneyland: LAX hasn't authorized any autonomous vehicle company, and Anaheim is outside Waymo's Los Angeles service area. Book that leg with a regular ride-hail, taxi or shuttle, and save Waymo for the Los Angeles part of your trip.

Why the trip doesn't work

  • The airport end: Los Angeles World Airports told the City Council in February 2026 that it hadn't granted access to any autonomous vehicle company and had no timeline (LAWA).
  • The Anaheim end: Waymo's Los Angeles area is about 210 square miles and reached the South Bay (Torrance, El Segundo, Manhattan Beach) on November 3, 2026 (Los Angeles Times). California's utilities regulator approved a larger area in August 2026 that reaches into Orange County, but Waymo said expansion would be gradual (Los Angeles Times). We found no Waymo service in Anaheim.

Where Waymo helps on an LA trip

If you spend a few days in Los Angeles before or after Anaheim, Waymo is open to everyone in its LA area, 24/7. The November 2026 expansion added Universal Studios and the Beverly Hills Hotel as destinations (Los Angeles Times). For the airport, some riders take a Waymo to the LAX/Metro Transit Center and the free shuttle to the terminals (The Driverless Digest); see Waymo and LAX.

Planning the Anaheim leg

  • Book a regular ride-hail or taxi from LAX's ride-app pickup areas, or a shuttle if your hotel or package includes one.
  • If you're carrying a child under 8, a regular ride-hail car won't necessarily have a seat either, so plan for one.
  • Check this page again before a future trip: we update it when Waymo adds Orange County service or LAX access.

Questions riders ask

Can I take a Waymo from LAX to Disneyland?

No. Waymo can't pick up at LAX, and Anaheim isn't part of the Waymo service area we could confirm. Book this trip with a regular ride-hail, taxi or shuttle.

Will Waymo go to Anaheim?

Possibly in future. California regulators approved a Waymo area in August 2026 that reaches into Orange County, but Waymo said expansion would be gradual and hasn't announced Anaheim service.
