I used to live in LA, and have probably flown into LAX thirty times, maybe 50. Once as we were approaching from the east we were told that we had to make another approach because ground control was “turning the runways around”. The pilot made this announcement, and then corrected himself, saying “They’re actually turning the traffic pattern around, the runways are staying the way they are”. We then went out over the Pacific and landed. Sounds like that’s what happened to you.

Our pilot said nothing. Sounds like you had the kind of pilot I prefer. Thanks.
