LAX TO DEVIATE FROM OVER-OCEAN OPERATIONS TONIGHT THROUGH NOV. 12 

 (Los Angeles, California – November 6, 2015)  Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) officials report that the Federal Aviation Administration’s LAX Tower indicates that the military airspace to the west of LAX will be active for one week, creating traffic route limitations and requiring LAX to temporarily deviate from Over-Ocean Operations.   The deviations begin tonight, November 6,and continue through November 12.

LAX normally operates in Over-Ocean Operations from midnight to 6:30 a.m., wherein aircraft arrive and depart over the ocean to minimize noise disturbance to the communities directly east of the airport.

Active military airspace will require the airport to temporarily deviate from this air traffic flow configuration and to remain in westerly operations (aircraft arriving and departing westbound) for the next seven nights.

As a result, persons living near the airport may notice a change in aircraft flight activity and associated noise, airport officials said.
