Hi Dennis! Welcome to planDisney. We are so happy to have you here! It looks like you will be arriving at the Happiest Place on Earth right in the middle of the holly jolly season! You are going to love the once-a-year overlays on
Haunted Mansion Holiday and
"it's a small world" Holiday along with all the gingerbread and peppermint flavored treats!
While the
Disneyland Resort does not offer transportation to or from any of the surrounding airports, including LAX, there are many, many options to explore that include using the Metro, a shuttle service, or a ride-share service. I would recommend checking out the "
Getting From the Airport to the Disneyland Resort" section of the website. This lays out a ton of options for you, including details on the Karmel Shuttle which specifically offers transfers to and from the Disneyland Resort. A good, old internet search could also do the trick to find some alternatives that fit your travel style and budget. Most recently, I used a ride-share. I was short on time and just needed the most direct route. It was more expensive than some of the other alternatives, but it did get me where I needed to be with a few minutes to spare!
The
holidays are truly the merriest time of the year at the Disneyland Resort. Not only do you have some of those special attraction overlays, but you cannot miss the
Disney Festival of the Holidays celebration over at Disney California Adventure Park. It's one of my favorite times of the year to visit and celebrate the holidays around the world! Listen to music, learn about other cultures, and eat your way through this special season. While you're getting inspired, take a listen to Episode 3 of the
planDisney Podcast - Halfway to the Holidays for some insider tips!
Dennis, I sure hope this was helpful in your planning! If you have any more questions, please come back to see us here at
planDisney.
Be merry!
