nans vacation Posted May 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I will be on the Carnival Miracle. It docks at 9:00am, what is the earliest flight I should book out of Long Beach airport, I am looking at a 12:20 pm flight. I do not want to be stressed out about missing my flight. I looked on the Carnival site for times of flights out of Long Beach but could not fine any information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan Joe Posted May 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Yep like Riclop said 12:20pm is fine I believe the earliest you can book a flight is 11am. My DW and I was just was there over Christmas time on a Princess cruise. We (or shall I say she) was nervous about LA traffic, so she would not book anything before 1pm. When we arrived in LA and traveled to cruise terminal it took about 1 1/2 to 2hrs:mad:. However the trip back to LAX only took us 20-45mins, and with a 1pmish flight and getting there around 10amish we had to wait for about 3hrs before flight left:mad::mad:. This is the only experience I have ever had with LAX so hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonit964 Posted May 25, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Long Beach is a very easy and small airport to fly out of. You shouldn't have any issues at all. We always fly LGB when we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We arrive on a Thursday at 12:35 so hoping the traffic isn't that bad to long beach. I was expecting 45 - 1 hour. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missileer Posted May 26, 2017 #11 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Last weekend we had a 1:30 flight scheduled at LGB and got to the airport in time to get on a 10:15 airplane. I wouldn't schedule it that way however as any hiccup would cause you misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
