Long Beach Passport and luggage?

There are 4 of us flying in to LAX, renting a car, then returning it the next day in Long Beach. We would like to stay together when Embarking Imagination. We are looking at dropping off the car and getting on the Passport shuttle with our luggage. Is this feasible? Another option is that my husband wants to drop us and luggage off, take the car back and WALK (he likes to walk) the 2 miles back. I am not a fan of this idea....

Final option (my favorite) is drop the luggage off with my parents (in their late 70s), return the car, and either Uber ($6) or Passport shuttle back. Any thoughts for those of you who have done this? By the way, we are all Platinum on Carnival so it doesn't matter on boarding time, except the sooner the better:D.

Where is the car rental drop off??

How much luggage do you have?

It sounds like dropping you and the luggage off and then returning car and taking uber/lyft /taxi to the cruise terminal is the easiest. From downtown Long Beach even regular taxi is only about $10.
