The Irvine Marriott, Hyatt Regency John Wayne Airport and Renaissance Newport Beach Hotel all have airport shuttles and nice onsite dining.

This is the "right" answer. People have their own likes and dislikes, but overall the CP is a better location. The terminal is even walkable.

SNA (John Wayne) is our home airport and we love it. Hate LAX.

Portside Pier is right next to the cruise terminal with 3 or 4 restaurants, mostly seafood. For Italian you'd want to walk up to Little Italy and there are a half dozen or more good places.

Yes it is common for Berth 92.

Long Beach Convention Center or a hotel that has a Park & Cruise.

Yes. I am a seasoned citizen and I need assistance from the curb to check-in and check-in onto the ship (requires two different people, two different wheel chairs). The driver can drop you where the porters are and the porters will come to you usually. Personnel at the curb help arrange a wheelchair and escort for me. I tip both the escorts $10. Uber can drop off curbside as far as I know. We get rides from our son or daughter. Times when my son and DIL were coming with, we've never had a hard time at San Pedro finding handicapped parking right up front. This is over about 15 Princess trips, 3 NCL and 3 Celebrity. Don't get me started on Long Beach (there is a reason they are named Carnival. Embarkation Day is a 3 ring circus. Lots of clowns, no lion tamers).

We've never heard tipping the porters isn't allowed. Every does (or should). We tip $5 a bag, and $10 for the person who wheels me from the curb to check-in. I can walk with a cane, but I can't walk the distances required from curb to ship and then the weird ship serpentine they make you navigate.

Does this limo company have a name? 🙂

If the ship has a Molokini excursion, take it, other wise it could be difficult. Do it as early as possible.

Sunseeker is the only one I've heard of.

Don't use expedia.... Uber and Lyft Black pick up curbside, so does any private town car/limo service, which will cost double an Uber or Lyft from Lax-it.

It depends on which terminal you come into. There are taxi stands by terminal TBIT/Terminal 3 and Terminal 7/8, otherwise, yes.

I wonder why Hilo Walmart stopped the Roberts shuttle. Last time we were there (Oct 2022) they filled up bus after bus. I'd say few hundred passengers made the trek.

Not sure if the original poster has been here yet, but driving is the easiest, best solution.
