From reading these boards, I had decided to fly into Orange County (John Wayne) airport instead of the traditional Los Angeles airport for our visit to Disneyland.
Well, I'm finally researching airline tickets and need some opinions. It costs roughly $50 more per ticket to fly to Orange County than LAX and no direct flights are available to Orange County. In fact, only two airlines offer direct flights from Kansas City to LAX. Of course, I would prefer a direct flight!
So, is it really that much of an advantage to fly into Orange County instead of LAX? I understand that my cab fares to the hotel and then back to the airport will probably be more flying into LAX, but does anyone know how much more? Also, is LAX really that much of a hassle? I read that Orange County is just much easier to get in and out of.
My dilema is that to fly into Orange County instead of LAX would cost me an extra $150 (not considering extra cab fare from LAX) and I would have to change planes somewhere along the way instead of having a direct flight. My question is - Is Orange County airport worth this much extra over LAX?
