Airport Proximity to DLR and Ground Transportation Information Superthread (READ FIRST POST FOR OVERVIEW!)

were the prices all close?

i called xpress shuttle which seems to have good reviews its 99 dollars from john wayne for a luxury town car

I've priced out Karmel, Lansky, PrimeTime, XPress Shuttle - all for trips to LAX from San Bernardino County and wow, their prices are double what Super Shuttle charged!

That's what I found, too. Although I was looking at a 1-way shared shuttle from ONT to a relative's house when it appeared she might not be able to pick me up at ONT (she was). The prices were ridiculous. It would have been cheaper to take a taxi and much cheaper to take Uber. Heck, a 48 hr car rental (AAA rates) was cheaper than a 1-way shuttle.

The last time I took an airport shuttle it was in 2003 from home to Sacramento Intl. The tickets were $16/pp one way. I hadn't priced them since. Needless to say, I almost had an apoplexy!

Yes, I just ended up booking a midsize car from LAX from Wed. night to late Saturday night for $95 (unlimited mileage and tax included) - not really wanting to drive but refuse to pay almost $100 each for the three of us for transfers. Disney needs to at least offer something affordable for transportation.

U would figure someone would pick up the void by super shuttle if they are indeed going out of business

Yup....I wonder about the people who own the vans, maybe they will get together and rebrand it?

 

[MonocularVision]

Or perhaps they all become Uber/Lyft drivers?

 

[mamapenguin]

Bring back my Super Shuttle. I hope someone buys them and will keep them going. I will rent a car in Florida, but not California. I don’t like any of the other options.

Has anyone used Anaheim Towncar Services? (anaheimtowncarservices.com)

Their prices seem pretty good for a round trip ($225 for 2 people from LAX), but I am concerned that their Yelp page is literally all 5-star reviews. Nobody is that good.

I noticed that the DLR bus is not available after January 7th with the current company per their website. Is there another company doing the DLR route after January 7th?

We regret to inform you that the Disneyland Resort Express service will cease operation on January 7, 2020 at 11:59 PM https://dre.coachusa.com/

There was a thread about it, but I can’t find it. Maybe it got absorbed into the transportation superthread, in which case you might not be able to find anything useful... but most people are suggesting Uber, Lyft, Lansky... there’s not another shuttle option.

 

[ParkHopper1]

Both Disneyland Express and SupperShuttle are ceasing operations.

 

[shadowmender]

Thank you for looking and responding.

@shadowmender there is an ongoing thread about getting to/from DLR, I think I've linked it starting where the discussion about options starts if not got to the last couple of pages, Airport Proximity to DLR and Ground Transportation Information Superthread

We used Midwilshuttle in October to LAX and they were great!!! I was nervous as there was not much talk on here but they get great reviews!

 

[BadPinkTink]

the alternative to supershuttle at the moment is Karmel Shuttle https://www.karmel.com/

Karmel, Lansky's, Uber, and Lyft are all alternate options, along with renting a car, of course.

If needed, Lansky's can provide car seats when requested ahead of time; the others will require you to provide your own.

I’m going to check them out too.

Ok, I finally ended up booking Prime Time Shuttle for our trip 1/16-1/20. Twice as much as Super Shuttle, but cheaper than everything else I checked to/from LAX. I found a couple discount codes if anyone is interested. If it’s your 1st booking with them, “winter10” will get you $10.00 off. And the code “supersave” gets you $5.00 off. I booked my outbound & inbound separately, so I was able to use both codes & confirm they work (as of today at least).
