We are sailing out of that Port next week (Bliss) so I am hoping it will be better. Based upon the scheduled posted above, it appears that the Bliss is the only ship at Port that day so I would imagine no shuttle would be necessary (one would hope). There are several hotels or accommodations near the Long Beach Cruise Port. As mentioned earlier, I would recommend flying in the day before your cruise just to be safe. Converted to a hotel, accommodation, and tours were available until the COVID-19 pandemic struck in 2020.
Next, take the 710 Freeway to the end at the Long Beach Cruise Port. Uber prices can vary but expect to pay about USD 35+ if traveling from LAX to the Long Beach Cruise terminal. While you’ll need a hotel stay flying a day earlier, you won’t be at risk of missing your cruise. We have taken the short flight from Vancouver many times to Los Angeles to take a winter-break cruise. Our latest was a cruise on the Discovery Princess in January with Karen’s 81-year-old mum.
We spoke to the front desk there and alerted them that we would sail from Berth 46 and we were assured the were aware and would have a shuttle going there. I'm guessing the hotel will take an interest in where they should be sending their shuttle and be motivated to sort it out. I would be if I were them but, then again, I am an efficient type.
Affordable hotels and cheap motels can be found not far from the Port of LA in San Pedro. Alternative is a stay near LAX Airport with free airport shuttle, Hollywood, beachfront Santa Monica Beach,Redondo Beach or in a hotel near Disneyland California amusementpark in Anaheim. When sailing for the Port of Los Angeles, your options are somewhat limited for parking.
