barbatkins Posted August 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Does anyone know the earliest flight Carnival suggests from LAX...when debarking in Long Beach and taking Carnivals shuttle bus? Can I make an 11:30 am flight on SWA? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising Golfer Posted August 14, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Depends on the day, if it's a weekday, I doubt it, traffic is a bear on work days. Weekend , more than likely you would be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do self disembark you can leave by 8am Monday and Friday traffic to LAX can be bad. If you have a Sunday Miracle cruise planned it would work better. I'd change to 2:00 to be on safe side.

So if I take a cab instead of shuttle, how much can I expect a cab to be to LAX? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SadieN Posted August 14, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Carnival suggests a flight no earlier than 1pm when flying out of LAX. Taxi is a flat rate to LAX and is in the $60 range Long Beach Yellow Cab 562-435-6111 The problem with the Carnival shuttle is that it has to fill up before it leaves. Another problem is that LAX is set-up as a horsehoe. If you are in the Carnival shuttle and are Terminal 7 United, it can take up to an hour to get there. (Many natives have been known to walk across the horseshoe when taking a shuttle.) A taxi can take a bypass. There will be shared shuttle sevices available. I've seen Super Shuttle at the pier. They run in the $17 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can book either one at this point....im in the planning stage.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
