manitoba girl Posted April 1, 2006 #1 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Does any one know how far it is from LA to where RCCL boards its ships? IS it worth buying transfers from RCCL or can we higher a cab?( how much would it cost) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted April 1, 2006 #2 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Last year we paid about $33 for a taxi for the 2 of us. I would expect the RCI transfers to cost more than a taxi both ways. The port is in San Pedro, several miles from LAX. We flew into Long Beach avoiding the hassle of LAX, and saving a few $$ and minutes travel.

beatriz22 Posted April 1, 2006 #3 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Its Beatrice from the other board, its a good 30 to 45 minutes with freeway traffic, Im sure a taxi is expensive, Id see If RC hs a deal or something to accomodate you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted April 1, 2006 #4 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Supershuttle (they have a web site) provides good and efficient transportation for less than the cruise line transfers. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted April 1, 2006 #5 Share Posted April 1, 2006 We used Prime Time Shuttle and they were great. Try googling the name and see if their site comes up. It has all the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackOxford Posted April 1, 2006 #6 Share Posted April 1, 2006 ...depending on how much time you'll have, you could rent a car from Enterprise at LAX and drop it off at their San Pedro location. It is literally 2 minutes from the ship. We only paid $26, but had made the reservation long in advance. It's the closest car rental location to the ship, that I know! How's that for a deal?????

Rala Posted April 1, 2006 #7 Share Posted April 1, 2006 We also used PrimeTime Shuttle and were very pleased. The cost was $32 per person round trip from LAX to pier and back to LAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you coming from, and can you fly into Long Beach? Not only is Long Beach Airport closer to the docks, but Jet Blue flies into Long Beach.

CruisinDawn Posted April 3, 2006 #11 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Taxis have a set rate of $45 to LAX as of 3/13/06. For about what Royal wants you can take a private town car back & forth through primetime (154.10 includes tip). We used Primetime to the port and loved the personal service and help with the luggage. Took a taxi back. Taxis were lined up with a man taking names and telling you which cab to get in so more organized then other ports. BonVoyage Dawna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
