I would much prefer San Pedro. We live in the U.K., but have some very dear friends in Long Beach and Orange County. There also is the pull of Disneyland. However, if San Diego made things easier to bring a Quantum class ship to California, I would make it work somehow. If Ovation is coming to California (or Quantum for that matter), I intend to book for May 2025 on opening day.
