Hey, Sherry.

Hi, Doug. Thank you for joining us this

morning. I really appreciate it. Our first listener question comes from Kristen. We are sailing on

Princess and we need some advice getting to LAX from San Pedro. Yep. Well, Kristen, I think

there's really several ways to go from San Pedro to LAX.

It's an 18-mile ride, so be sure and allow plenty of time before your air flight out of LAX.

Probably the most seamless way, but it's going to be more expensive, is to purchase your transfers through the cruise line.

It costs, I checked a few of them.

It's about $30 per person.

But the hiccup is that sometimes if they fill up the first bus and it leaves, you might

have to sit on a second bus until they get more passengers on it.

So it could take a little bit of time before you get to the airport,

which again is why you should always allow plenty of time. But of course, you can get a taxi,

but the best alternative, and I know Doug will agree with me on this one is to take Uber or Lyft.

So, for example, an Uber X will cost between about $28 to $34, and an Uber XL is about $45 to $54,

and of course, the tip is additional.

And two tricks to note, if you use the ride share app, and you could try to schedule a pickup

time if you anticipate a smooth disembarkation process. Otherwise,

what we always, and we've said this before, right, and walk a little bit away from the terminal
