LA/Ontario International Airport (ONT) is pleased to offer its facilities to your production company. There are many usable sites at ONT available for filming 24 hours a day. A closed passenger terminal, a Boeing 727-200 airliner with full cabin interior and cockpit, unoccupied hangars and buildings, an ultra-modern passenger complex, aircraft parking areas, airline ticket counters, baggage claim areas, parking lots and curbside check-in await moviemakers. Due to security restrictions, filming in active passenger Terminals 2 and 4 is limited to public areas only. No filming is allowed at or beyond the Transportation Security Administration screening checkpoint. ONT does not allow filming of elevators or escalators during normal operating hours.
