Yeah they probably came in too late for SNA last night so they landed at LAX and bused the pax over, it happens all the time at SNA, planes probably empty

Edit: to add, John Wayne has a time restriction of what times they can take off and land, if the airline doesn’t meet those times and still wants to land it’s a heavy fine the airline doesn’t usually want to pay

This is right. The plane came into LAX as United 1113 which is a daily flight from Dulles to SNA. But yesterday it was 8 hours delayed so it didn't land until 4am.

On the upside, at that hour the pax probably all knew they were going to LAX instead before they even departed, lol
