rent a car? (we probably wont go off property)
uber?
taxi?
car service?

thanks....
 
How many of you are there? Which is of high priority: time or money? Which airport?

Personally, I'd probably opt for Uber, but I'm usually travelling alone when coming from an airport with minimal luggage and not during peak rush hour times.
 
just two people. will probably fly into LaX...unless there is a better choice....
 
SNA is the better choice. We were able to score $42 flights there and will uber to our hotel. Every time we fly into LAX, we rent a car.

SNA is the better and closer airport.

From LAX I Uber...taxi can be pricey...although I had a recent trip where a rental car round trip was the same price as Uber X round trip, so don't immediately discount that option...price it out.

From SNA Uber is cheaper but I had 10-15 min pickup waits last two times...so sometimes I just hop in a taxi cuz I wanna go now!

Shuttles if you wanna do it on the cheap cheap but you may be wasting a ton of time in their process.

You can do a hired scheduled car service, but Uber Black and SUV are alway readily available if you want professional drivers.

How much do you usually pay for a taxi from SNA? This is our first time flying into this airport.
 
We always fly into SNA and Uber or Lyft to the hotel. Last week I paid $23 to our hotel (Tropicana) and $17 back to the airport.
 
We are landing at 9:25 into SNA on a Wednesday morning and would like to get into the parks as quickly as possible- we planned on Uber but is taxi better?

Uber/Lyft is usually cheaper, I believe. And it was fast. We had our car in about 5 minutes.
 
I used Lyft from and back to LAX, it was great, about $38 each way. Loved it, fast, quiet, direct.
 
We paid $46? for our taxi from SNA to Disneyland Hotel. On the way back the hotel gave us a voucher so it would only be $40. The trip to/from the airport is very very quick. I don't know if its just me, but every time we go through SNA its very fast. Less than a half an hour from checking bags and getting through the security line (we fly SWA). I've never used uber, but maybe next time! My kids do love riding in the taxi though!

$46 is more than our flight cost! I think we'll try Uber/Lyft. App shows $20-$25.
 
LGB is another good option for airports over LAX. It's small and easy to get around......a little farther than SNA (via freeways), but not nearly as far as LAX. We do taxi, but the last couple of times there was a shuttle out there and he took us and did not wait around for anyone else to drift by....it was $40, so a good deal!
 
SNA isn't always the best choice; it depends on where you live. I'm from Reno, and there are no direct flights to SNA. I can get to LAX from Reno in 90 minutes, whereas it takes hours to get to SNA. We actually did it once and got stuck in Las Vegas all day due to an mechanical issue. We got to Disneyland at 7 pm that day, and if we had gone to LAX, we would have been in the park by 11 am.
 
Uber. Used them last two times we went to DLR and had no issues.

I like Lansky too, but they are more expensive. Although a great option if you want to stop at grocery store to get stuff before going to hotel.
