JinxyB Posted June 2 #1 Share Posted June 2 Have read through this thread and also Google. Question for all you experts, as I live on the east coast. Looking at a flight leaving at 1105 on a Tuesday from LAX. Could depart the Carnival Firenze theoretically at 0700- hopefully be off the ship by 0715. Carry on bag, TSA precheck, priority/first class with airline etc. I have been reading it’s difficult to get an Uber/Lyft. Are taxis a fixed price? Best shuttle service? Give up and fly from Long Beach airport? Thanks for any tips! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted June 2 #2 Share Posted June 2 We had a difficult time getting an Uber - after trying for 10 minutes saw a cab and grabbed it. It was metered and really not that more expensive than an Uber. At the time Uber prices were surging but no Ubers accepting. Maybe hoping for a stronger surge price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is ZERO chance I'd book a flight before noon from LAX, arriving in Long Beach, during the work week. Also, Carnival is not the slick, efficient outfit in Long Beach that they are in FL.

I don't think there are many non stop flights out LGB to the east coast I think LGB is more of a regional airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
