puli Posted November 30, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 30, 2013 We will be disembarking at Long Beach on 5/3/14 and flying out of LAX at 9 PM. Does anyone know which airport hotels offer day rooms for those taking a late flight? We have been to Los Angeles many times so really do not want to pass the time with a tour. Thought that being able to take our time disembarking and then taking a cab to a hotel where we can hang out, rest , have an early dinner, etc, would be a stressless plan. Then in the early evening take the hotel shuttle to the airport. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin' Chick Posted November 30, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 30, 2013 You might also want to make sure the hotel has a decent restaurant or diner. You won't want to be walking around in that area, even during the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenish Posted November 30, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 30, 2013 If you stay aboard ship until they kick you off, you will get to the LAX area around 11am or noon. So you have 7 or 8 hours to kill. If you don't really need a room and just want to hang out around the hotel, they may be willing to store your luggage and let you use their pool, lobby, etc. especially if you're a good customer of the chain and leave a suitable tip. Another option is the airline's lounge...a day pass is usually around $50. The amenities at LAX vary widely depending on the airline. I'm assuming Medford= United; I've never used their LAX lounge.

We are not frequent hotel chain users so no joy there. our airline is Alaska , not even sure if they have a lounge but will check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamloops50 Posted November 30, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Yes. Alaska does have an airport lounge. Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puli Posted November 30, 2013 Author #7 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Yes. Alaska does have an airport lounge. Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Forums mobile app Yes I checked but it is $45 per person...am hoping we could find a decent day room with on site restaurant for less than $90or at least under $125.

skandls Posted December 1, 2013 #10 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Consider hanging at a Long Beach hotel during the day have an early dinner. Then take a shuttle or cab to LAX, There is not a lot to do around LAX - even the hotels are very utilitarian. Check your airport lounge - yes it costs but what do you get. Free food? drinks? they are different so the price should be discounted for what you might buy anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted December 1, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Skandls- you are so right-- Stay on Long Beach. Instead of a hotel go to the Aquarium. The Aquarium of the Pacific will hold luggage. And if you do not have too much you can take the free Passport bus to get there. The busstop is in the middle of the parking lot under the trees. When exiting the Dome go to the right, out past the parking lot and crew center. www.aquariumofpacific.org http://www.lbtransit.com/services/passport.aspx Edited December 1, 2013 by SadieN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
