LAX’s SkyLink aims for October 2026 opening after years of delays and billions in overruns

TL;DR Summary
The LAX Automated People Mover, SkyLink, is finally targeting an October 2026 opening after years of delays that inflated its price from about $1.9 billion to $3.34 billion, driven by a persistent legal dispute with contractor LINXS and a recent $880 million settlement; the six-stop, fully electric system would connect LAX to the Metro rail and reduce central-terminal shuttle trips, but experts warn the date isn’t guaranteed as costs and disputes continue.
