Celebrities and diplomats will soon be able to travel in and out of Los Angeles’ LAX airport without having to deal with protestors, paparazzi, and regular people, according to Business Insider.

For $1,500 – $1,800 per flight, celebrities and diplomats will be able to avoid protests and paparazzi. A proposed private terminal complete with: a covered entrance, its own security lines, exclusive lounges, catering, and a shuttle that will take passengers directly to their plane.

The private terminal’s design is modeled after the Windsor Suite at London’s Heathrow International Airport, which is reserved for the Royal family and visiting world leaders before it lost public funding. Now, anyone can use the Windsor Suite terminal for a minimum of $3,000.

LAX airport officials hope the Los Angeles’ elite will use the new terminal as a cost-efficient alternative to chartering private jets. The facility is expected to open within the next six months.
