West Coast Cruisers, questions re transportation

[pclaire]

We are on the 6 night July 17th cruise, so it leaves on sunday, not saturday. We are from colorado - about a 2 hr flight to LAX. We are thinking of flying in early sunday mornig. I know the common wisdom is to not risk it, but what do you think? We would arrive about 8:30 am. There are approximately 3 other airlines and 5-6 other flights that would get us to LA on time, if something went wrong on the scheduled flight. Of course, if the weather were bad (which is very unlikely in Denver in the summer am, but dont know about LA) that could be a problem. How is everyone else getting to LA, and if you are staying over night, where? Places other than Disneyland, of course!!! thanks.

I can't speak for where people are staying, but since I live about 10 miles from the Port, I can at least address the weather concerns. July will not be a problem on the LA side. The fog will have stopped by then, and the rain won't pick back up until September at the earliest. So you should be ok flight wise.

Arriving at 8:30 am will give you plenty of wiggle room, in the event of unexpected delays.
