LAX or Long Beach for Panorama cruise?

[IDKaren]

We are HOPING to cruise Panorama next March..been cancelled twice from COVID. We have always flown into LAX for cruises. Wondering if Long Beach would be quicker and easier???? Hoping air fares will go down by then..they are awful. THANKS!

Long Beach is closer. Maybe 20-30 from airport.  Small airport nice to maneuver thru.

Thanks you very much!

Long Beach for sure. It is a small airport and very easy to navigate. We fly in the day before and stay at the Courtyard by Marriott airport hotel. They have an airport shuttle, and there are several restaurants and a Whole Foods right next door.

Agree with the other posters that Long Beach is the way to go.  We flew in to Long Beach last March for a cruise on the Radiance and then in May for a trip on the Panorama.  I avoid LAX at all costs.  

 

We, too, flew in the day before though we stayed at the Marriott close to the port.  Lots of dining options out that way.

Has anyone heard or read anything about the Queen Mary reopening for hotel guests?

Back in June they set a goal of Oct 1, IF the repairs were completed.
