Taxi Ride

What is the estimated cost of a taxi ride from LAX to the Anaheim Convention center? Do the taxi%26#39;s take credit cards? Any other options besides taxis?





Thanks

Don%26#39;t know, but I am guessing a taxi would be a whole lot of money. Another option is the Disneyland Express Shutte, a bus that goes from LAX to Disneyland area hotels. Your fare would be $19 for one adult.

If the above address doesn%26#39;t open directly to Disneyland Express, click on Airport Shuttles.

A taxi is about $100 plus tip, depending on traffic.





The Disneyland Express work great, just ask to go to the Hilton or the Marriott, which is right next door.





That is the cheapest option. The third option is a Shuttle Van, but I usually get the van that I am crammed into and makes multiple stops before it drops me off.




FYI, the Disneyland Express is also know as the Airport Bus, as it is a full sized, Greyhound like bus with airline style seats and a restroom in the back. More comfortable than a Shuttle Van, IMHO.




I second Darkbeer on taking the Disneyland Express vs the shuttles.



Although other people I know have had great experiences, I always get the shuttle that circles around finding more people until we are all crammed in and then takes us on a tour of the neighborhoods of Anaheim dropping off the locals before we finally arrive at the hotel.



I would rather ride on a big comfortable bus and stop at a few hotels than get in another shuttle van.




Third vote for the Disneyland Express bus. Pick it up outside of your terminal on one of the islands in the roadway. Look for the GREEN overhead sign that says: FLYAWAY BUSES and LONG DISTANCE VANS. Depending on the terminal you arrive at, you might need to walk a little to the rigfht (or, sometimes, left) to find the area with the GREEN overhead sign. The bus pulls up every 30 minutes -- at no specific time since it has to stop at all 8 terminals in the airport and we don%26#39;t know which terminal you are arriving at! (Also, of course, it is sometimes a little late but hang in there, it%26#39;s worth it).
