TRAVEL INFRASTRUCTURE & ROAD CLOSURES
California’s gateway airports remain open, and flights across the state are operating normally. Major highways and travel corridors throughout the state are unaffected. For the latest road closure updates, check Caltrans.
SAFETY
California is a vast state. Most regions, including the city of Los Angeles, remain untouched and open for business.
Visit California’s first concern is always the safety and well-being of California residents and visitors. We recommend that visitors planning trips to affected areas consult their tour operator or hotel directly for the latest information.
