Public Tranport - General: Don't Count On Public Transportation
  • Tip Rating:
  • I drive from San Diego to L.A. but, of course, you can fly into Los Angeles International Airport. It is quite far from downtown or any of the sights you'll want to see in LA, but quite near some rather interesting places such as, the lovely beach communities just north and west of the airport.

    L.A. has public transportation but the only thing I'd recommend public transportation for, is to get to the Getty Center--because there is a five dollar parking fee and it may take more than a week to get a parking reservation. Other than that, you'll need a car to get around L.A.

    Almost any time, day or night the freeways are jam packed and it feels more like a parking lot than a freeway!

    Driving around town is also a major headache and time consuming. When making plans for the day add at least an extra hour for travel!

    Driving: You can fly, drive, bike, or...
  • Tip Rating:
  • You can fly, drive, bike, or boat into LA. There are other methods, sure, but the best way to get to LA is by plane. Driving across the desert from Arizona or Nevada will be an adventure, but bring lots of water.
    You really must have a car. I got a good deal from Alamo when I first visited LA in 1998, but you should shop around for special rates before arriving. If you're adventurous, you can travel by bus and subway, but you've got to be a good planner and have lots of free time and patience. You must also get along well in crowded situations. Buses run until 1 or 2am and start again by 5am. The drivers went on strike last year, so hopefully that won't happen again for a while. The best bet is to stick with an automobile, if you've got the budget, so that you have the freedom to drive all around the city or drive to the mountains and beaches.

    Flights / Airports: the consequence of not getting the window seat ;-)

    Believe me, at LAX I asked for the window seat coz I said 'I'd have no one to talk to'. But the JAL guy at LAX said the flight to Japan was full, so he could only fulfil my wish for the next flight from Japan to Singapore. I walked up the plane thinking this was gonna be bo-O-o-ring.

    Turns out, on my right was this dashing American-Hispanic punk rocker from Audiokarate who was heading for Tokyo to play at the esteemed Warped Tour Japan with The Vandals, Useless I.D., Thursday, Poison the Well, and Slick Shoes. Wowwow ~ so there were many such tough musicians on the plane! ;-)

    And on my left, the guy who got the window seat, was a dice dealer from Las Vegas!

    Yes, the three of us did exchange contacts ;-)

    Moral of the story: you just might chance a celebrity on the plane from LAX! ;-)

  • Tip Rating:
  • Easiest way if you're flying to LA, is to fly into either LAX or Burbank.

    There are other airports such as Long Beach and Ontario but they're either further out or have less flights.

    LAX isn't very crowded these days due to 9/11 and as of 15-Dec-01, you can stop at the curb to pick-up or drop-off passengers. But you can not leave you are un-attended. The fine is a minimum of $86. See the warning sign!!

    It was a very long and slow moving queue at LA airport. People forewarned me about its tight security, but I got through fine ;-)

    However, when I leave LA to return to Singapore, I know better to check in my cuticle scissors that became an event on my way to LA.

  • Tip Rating:
  • LAX (Los Angeles International Airport)-- If possible, avoid arrival and departure at peak hours. Bank on spending at least an hour to get to the airport, during rush hours, even if you live 10 miles away.

    There are other airports: BURBANK; JOHN WAYNE (Orange County); ONTARIO (San Bernandino).
    CAR-COCHE-CARRO-... NO OTHER WAY.

  • Tip Rating:
  • You can get here by plane, boat, bus or train, whichever you choose.
    I would not recommend taking the bus or taxis in L.A.. The busses can be overcrowded and have long waits, and taxis are very expensive. The best way to get around is by renting or borrowing a car/van/motorhome.
