For Journeys that Matter
Fans flying in for a No Repeat Weekend often book both the Thursday and Saturday show, which means the airport arrival matters as much as the venue pickup. LUXY Ride's flat rate is set at booking, whichever airport you're landing at, and a chauffeur is confirmed before you touch down.
Fans landing at LAS have the shortest hop to Sphere. Fans flying in from Chicago or Los Angeles connect through LAS as well, since Sphere doesn't have a direct feeder airport outside Las Vegas itself. Either way, the airport-to-hotel leg and the hotel-to-Sphere leg on show night are booked as separate confirmed trips.

HOW IT WORKS
What is LUXY Ride?

Why Book LUXY Ride for Your Sphere Airport Transfer
No Surge Pricing on Arrival
LAS gets busy on Metallica show days, and rideshare pricing around the airport reflects it. LUXY Ride's flat rate is set at booking, before you land.
Confirmed Before You Board
Whether you're flying from Chicago, Los Angeles, or somewhere else entirely, your chauffeur is assigned before you leave for the airport, not after you land.
Built for Fans Flying In From Out of State
For fans connecting through LAS from ORD or LAX, LUXY Ride tracks your flight and adjusts pickup timing automatically, whether that flight lands on time or late.
One Booking Process for Every Leg
The airport-to-hotel transfer, the hotel-to-Sphere leg on show night, and the return trip are each booked separately, but all through the same LUXY Ride App or luxyride.com process.
Short Final Stretch to Sphere
Once you're on the ground at LAS, Sphere is only a few miles away. A pre-arranged chauffeur means that final leg is confirmed before you even land.
Corporate and Group Options
Group SUV service is available for parties attending together, with the same flat-rate confirmation as an individual booking.
What to Expect
From Booking to Curbside
Pre-arranged. Flat rate. Confirmed.
Book through the LUXY Ride App or luxyride.com with your flight number, whether you're landing at LAS directly or connecting through it from ORD or LAX.
An email confirmation arrives first, followed by your chauffeur's name and vehicle details before show night.
You'll get a text when your chauffeur departs, with an ETA that adjusts automatically if you're on a tracked flight.
Your chauffeur is curbside, hotel before the show, SoFi Stadium pickup point after, no lot traffic, no searching.
