arubacassie Posted August 13, 2007 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2007 We will be on the Pearl which ends in San Pedro at 8 a.m. along with 2 more ships. Question: Would we have enough time to catch a van service (because of luggage, 4 of us) over to Universal theme park as park closes at 6 p.m. that day. Our flight doesn't leave till next day at 1:30 p.m. from LAX, so would catch a hotel near Universal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruin Steve Posted August 14, 2007 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Is this on a weekday or weekend? Assuming a weekend, if you arrange a shuttle ahead of time from the pier to Universal City (Stay at either the Sheraton or Hilton...they're right there at the studio/park), you should be there by 10:00 am...Check in (or leave your luggage with the bellhop) and you'll get a good 7 hours in the park...More than enough time... Citywalk, the "free" shopping and restaurant area at Universal is open well past that time and there are plenty of restaurants there...or get a ride somehow or walk down to Micelli's on Cahuenga for a little later dinner with singing waiters... Next day, you can sleep in a little and get a shuttle down to LAX (be there by 11:30 for a 1:30 flight--too bad you're not flying out of Burbank...it's 15 minutes from Universal and is one of the easiest airports anywhere to fly in and out of)... Good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 14, 2007 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Yes, you would easily have the entire afternoon there. Sounds like a good plan. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arubacassie Posted August 14, 2007 Author #5 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Thank you for info. There will be 3 ships in that morning, so wouldn't it take longer to get off with customs being so busy? Believe we get in at 8 a.m. How do I book a shuttle and what time do I tell them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
