SuperShuttle Vs. Disney Express?!?!

I'd definitely pick Super Shuttle. They are smaller capacity which means that they stop for fewer people and don't wait for a lot of people to get on, whereas on DLE you could be waiting and/or circling the airport for a while so they can load the bus.
 
Another vote for SuperShuttle. We've used it a number of times. They are very prompt and, as MyYearWithTheMouse said, fewer stops is a big bonus! I've always booked and paid for them online (including tip), so it really simplifies things on the travel days.
 
If you have little ones, I like the Disneyland Express because it is a big bus and you don't need carseats. With Super Shuttle you need to bring carseats.
 

That depends on where you are staying, IMHO. I would take the DE if I were staying at the DLH because that is the first stop.
 
I would only use Disneyland Express if it was a lot cheaper. Supershuttle usually takes 45 to 50 minutes to get from LAX to Anaheim and the one time I have used Disneyland Express it took about 90 minutes.
 
I would try and go with Prime Time. They're probably cheaper and hassle free.
 
We stayed at the DLH and used the Disneyland Express. We flew into LAX early in the morning and didn't have to wait long for the bus to show up. We didn't feel the wait to get to our hotel was excessive. In fact, when we arrived, we got to our hotel before Noon and we were eating lunch in DTD by Noon.

I know that we plan on using them again when we travel next June.

I've taken Super Shuttle twice and they circled the airport a second and third time to fill up. It was very annoying and took much longer than it needed to. I haven't taken DLE from the airport yet, but I took it there and we got there very quickly. I thought DLE left on a schedule, so they didn't actually wait to fill up. Don't they depart on the half hour and/or hour, depending on the time of day?
 
We're going to try the DLE this trip for the first time. I just don't like the fact that Super Shuttle serves anyone in the area going to LAX. We've been taken to some bad neighborhoods before. And I also think that DLE is on a schedule. Doesn't the website say every hour or 90 mins or something?
 
DLE is on a schedule, which to me is a big minus as if you miss the bus by 1 minute you will be waiting 29 minutes for the next bus if it is peak time, or 59 minutes if it is not peak! Whereas Super Shuttle picks you up whenever *you* are ready.
I'd take super shuttle.

On my last trip, I took the one that came first. Super Shuttle didn't offer a timed pick-up for me. I had to wait until it circled around to my terminal. And once, it circled the airport twice. It took an hour and a half to get to Disneyland and it's only a 40-minute trip.
