LAX to Grand Californian?

[SCDVC2000]

We are a party of 8, and renting a car wouldn’t make sense for us. I looked at some of the van companies listed on the DL website. It’s our first time to DL- any recommendations on how to get to and from LAX (esp given our party size, luggage etc). It’s my wife and I and our 6 kids and she does not want to split up for the transportation if that helps. Thanks!!

I really like In Style Transportation. For a group of your size, they offer Mercedes Sprinter vans. The drivers are great, the prices are reasonable, and the booking engine on their website is great.

Hi, I'm going to move this to our Disneyland board.

In CA, any child under the age of 8 requires a car seat.
This applies to taxis, ubers, lifts, rental cars, or any vehicle that isn't a shuttle or bus.
This law is very strict, and will be followed. So unless you are flying with carseats, a shuttle is your only option if you have children age 7 and below.

We liked Midwilshuttle and they provided car seats.

Also do check out Karmel Shuttle and also Lansky's, they are competitive when it comes to price, along with decent service too.

I don't know that Lansky can accommodate a party this large.

Edit: I was correct. They would need two cars from Lansky

One cheap option I’ve discovered is metro. There are sketchy people that ride but you’ll be fine with a large group. So here’s what you do: you take the green metro shuttle from LAX to the aviation/LAX station. Then you take the green metro eastbound to Norwalk (the fare is $1.75 per person and you have to get a TAP card for each person which is $2 each). Then take bus 460 for free to Disneyland. That’ll take you a couple hours but it’s much cheaper than other options.

I cannot recommend Milwilshuttle enough, they were fantastic and reasonably priced!

Have you considered flying into SNA? Even with a layover instead of direct flight, that can be less time and hassle than dealing with LA traffic.

We only have 3 kids, all under 8, and that sounds like a hellish ordeal.

Sounds like a direct, private option is your best bet by far.

I agree.... and I was just thinking about myself and DH and there is no way I would want to do this...then adding in dragging kids around that having been traveling all day... Nope...

Another vote for Karmel Shuttle Very reliable, curbside pickup and should be around $165 each way for a private transfer.

Sav-on shuttle, they have car seats and should be around $120 each way: https://www.sav-onshuttle.net/
