How does the Airport Bus from LAX work?

[Lollipop's Mom]

I see it is much cheapter to take the Airport bus than supershuttle, but on the site it only shows to Disneyland hotel, but services all these other hotels. I can't quite figure out how they work it! Help?!

Get off the plane.collect your luggage and head outside to the concrete median that says"shuttle buses". Wait for the airport bus.....anywhere from 20-30 minutes, and hop aboard. They are just like greyhound buses. They will drive you to there headquarters which is on harbor blvd. They will then collect your money or vouchers, and send you off onto smaller vans to your specific hotel, or if you are at a harobr or disney hotel, you might just stay on the bus, then get dropped off at the stop closest to your destination.

Hmmmm sounds like a pain in the butt for the sake of saving 15 bucks. I think the super shuttle will work better for us!

What we found is if you had 1 or 2 it was cheaper for the Bus but more than that a shuttle service generally won out.

The Airport Bus is cheap but its also pretty unreliable, slow and not very convienent, but when I travel alone through LAX its was the far better option (course now its not worth saving the 10-20 bucks and flying into LAX than SNA from SLC.. LAX used to be MUCH cheaper)

I know they've moved their stop next to HOJO somewhere but I dont know where that moved too...

There are MANY shuttle bus services that go back & forth between LAX and the Anaheim hotels. As a previous poster said, just collect your luggage and head out the door to the shuttle bus stop. There a several of them, you won't have to walk far.

I usually just ask the first one that pulls up how quickly they will have me to the hotel and the price. I would rather pay a little more and only stop a few times. Airport Bus, in my experience, is one of the slowest services. No matter what time of year, I have never had a problem getting a quick & reasonably priced shuttle. The only time you may have issues is if you arrive really late a night.

<font color=navy>Here is a pic of the Airport Bus Depot I took last April. Right behind me would be Mimi's Cafe and the Fairfield Inn, and across the street to the left would be Disneyland.

These were the prices last April for shuttle rides

Just an FYI that top photo is now a parking lot

They moved the shuttle base somewhere else- but I'm not sure where
