Car vs. Shuttle Any Help!?

[vbecky]

Hi We are flying in at 10am Sunday morning to Long Beach anyone know if there is a shuttle that goe to GC from there. Right Now we have a car reserved for just a little under 200 I am wondering if there is a cheaper way for the 4 of us to get to DL Which then we would be needing roundtrip any Suggestions?? Thanks

A cab to the GC will run you about $40 including tip. You will have to negotiate a flat rate for the return trip, though. Otherwise they will charge mileage, and it can run as much as $60. Still, the cost probably beats your rental or a shuttle because they charge per person.

We rented a car for 5 days though costco.com under the travel section the total cost incl tax & 1 additional driver (at no additional cost) $58.00 we are also arriving at Long Beach. So check it out I know you can get a great deal.

Have a great trip

You're welcome

We picked Alamo the one with the free day (if you rent for at least 5 days)

Hope you find a deal

The higher rates are because it is weekdays vs weekends. Week end car rentals are super cheap. You could reserved a private super shuttle for $79 each way or a shared super shuttle for about $60 each way. A cab, as danger said, would be cheaper. As your date gets closer you might be able to use Alamo's hot super saver rates. They come out about a week before you travel. I've had some great rates using that.

The drive from long beach is super easy. Its one road straight from the airport to the back side of Disneyland. Takes about 30-35 min.

You might also want to check on hotwire.com. I plugged in your dates and came up with a rate of about $140 for a full size car. Not sure what you are looking for, but it might be worth a look. Good luck and have a great trip!
