Disneyland Express Shuttle Bus from LAX?

[2boysmom1998]

I am not renting a car this time, I am taking the Disneyland Express shuttle bus from LAX to the Fairfield Marriott across the street from Disneyland. Does anyone know where I catch the Disneyland Express at LAX? I think it starts at Terminal 1 but I just want to make sure. I think it drops off at the HOJO's so I will have to walk from there to the Fairfield. I just want to verify everything and I really haven't been able to find out too much online about it.

When we stayed at the Fairfield and flew into LAX, the bus came around and made a pick up stop in front of each terminal starting at 1pm. I want to say it was on the second island outside after getting your luggage?

It dropped us off on the street in front of the hotel so we only had to walk through the parking lot to get to the door. I'm not sure if that's changed or not.

Have a great trip!

Oh my gosh, they start picking up at 1 pm? What if your flight lands at 8 am? Do you have to wait until 1 pm to be picked up?

In looking at the latest brochure more closely it does appear that things have changed and you now have to meet the bus at the HoJo for the stop times provided. The pick up times at HoJo start at 6:42am and then are every 2 hours after that until 2:42pm so that would really stink if you had a flight later in the evening than that.

For pick up times, it looks like they start at LAX at 7:50am, then about every hour until 8pm.

My typo- stilly phone- starting with Terminal 1- not 1pm. I see the confusion now

We just got back from our week long trip and used the Disneyland express to and from LAX. Super easy to use. they pick up once an hour (the times do fluctuate slightly depending on the time of day so I would make sure to look at the schedule on the Grayline website). Our pick up was for 1:45 pm. They stop at all of the terminals starting at terminal 1. After you pick up your bags, go out the doors and look to the middle "island". On the ceiling you will see a green sign for the shuttle pick up waiting area (each terminal has this area). You just need to wait for the bus to arrive. You can prepay/book your shuttle but can also do it on the fly so to speak...(we always prepay). If you do it the day of you will pay when the shuttle gets to the Disneyland Hotel (which is their hub).

For your return just look again at the pickup times for your hotel, (i believe the fairfield get picked up at the hojo now). Plan according to your departure flight time and the time of day for what time you should catch the bus. Took us just under an hr both ways, but will depend on alot of potential factors.

I think its a great way to get to and from.

Thank you. I've already prepaid when I purchased my airlines tickets. I just wasn't sure where to go. I will go to Grayline's website see what the pickup and departure times are .
