Default Re: Best airport for Bike/Commerce?

If you can go JetBlue try and fly into Long Beach airport. I think it's the best airport in the area and it is not too far from either the bike or commerce. Burbank (Bob Hope) would be an awful drive in traffic and their baggage handling system sucks big time. Just 2 outdoor (covered) conveyors and I've never waited less than 30 minutes to get my bags. Quickest way to either casino from LAX is on the 105 fwy. The supposed 1/2 hour another poster calims you will save will more than be eaten up by the fact that Burbank is so far away. I have no information about John Wayne (The OC).

I commute from the Santa Clarita Valley to card rooms almost daily. As long as the OP is not traveling before 10:00 AM, traffic is not horrible going thru downtown. Shortcut to the Bike or Commerce is taking the 5 to the 60 and then hitting 710 south. Stay off of the 101 as it is much busier throught the day. It cuts out that 2 lane section.

As for baggage, I have never had a problem flying into burbank, where I have waited hours for rental cars during peak arrivals at LAX.

Don't forgte to add travelling after 3:30 PM. The stretch of 5 fwy from the 134 to the 110 is brutal.
