If it makes any difference, I will have no luggage and be driving on a Saturday.

Then fly into LAX and hop on the 105 east to the 710 north. Traffic won't be a problem, and if you have no luggage, LAX is fine.

Without luggage, still use the regional airports. At LAX, its about a 1/2 mile walk from the gate to sidewalk. At that point, you then have to wait for an rental car shuttle, if you are flying Southwest, it terminal 1, so enjoy your ride around the whole horseshoe.

Then you arrive at the office which may have a longer line that the regionals.

At burbank and John Wayne, its a very short walk from the gate to the rental car counter. From the counter is another short walk to the cars and out you are. Easily 1/2 hour saved right there.

Good lord.. it's not that bad! You make LAX sound like the seventh circle of hell. It can have its days, but it's not horrible.

Distance wise - LAX and Burbank are nearly the same driving distance, so fly into whichever one has the cheaper fare and rental car.
