Cab/Shuttle companies in Los Angeles

[familygal]

Hi,

We are spending a few extra days in Los Angeles before the cruise in March. Does anyone know if there is a certain cab company, (which we may need to book prior to getting there) that has vans? We are four adults going with 4 large suitcases. We will be needing a ride from LAX to San Pedro then 3 days later, San Pedro to the Pier.

Thanks,
Familygal

Prime time shuttle is a good service. 1-800-RED-VANS.

We used Super Shuttle.........they are nationwide and have a website..

I live in the area. However, in February I found myself needing a ride to the port, because it was a one way cruise, and I would not be returning to the port after the cruise. I went with DK's Livery Service ...

It was actually less than a cab, that was just for me.

Another one I have heard good things about is Karmel ...

Any information would be great...Our hotel is in the San Pedro area.

Los Angeles is a major metropolitan city and has it all. What are your interests?

Bruin Steve is better at this one than I am, so you might send him a PM.

San Pedro is an industrial area. If you can stay in Long Beach (which is right next door) you'll be happier ...

San Pedro ...



Both ports ...





Long Beach ...

Royal Caribbean ships depart from the Port of Los Angeles World Cruise Center in San Pedro.

Carnival departs from Long Beach.

Thanks Cruzier and Mbandy for all the information....your help is great!

We have booked The Best Western in Long Beach, as for the shuttles I have not picked one yet.


Have a great day,
