Im from Ireland and I have been flying into LAX and going to Disneyland for many years. These are the options.
Rent a car
Uber or Lyft - you have to go to the central transport hub called LAXIT, there is a shuttle bus which picks up outside the arrivals at the terminal.
Private car service - I use Midwilshuttle. I book and pay in advance. They have a WhatsApp number and I connect to the free airport WiFi and text them when I am waiting for my checked luggage. They can pick up curbside outside the arrivals terminal. When I get my bag, I go out to the pick up area and text them the pole number. They text back the drivers name and make of car. They wait in the area and when I text that I am at the pick up area, the driver is there in about 10 minutes. The drive to Disneyland is about an hour, depending on traffic. It costs me about $100 for one person and one checked bag.
Shuttle bus to Aviation and LAX station then train to Norwalk train station, then 460 bus to Disneyland.
We always rent a car through Costco because you can only do a max of 5 park days at Disneyland so we have a lot of days to explore the area. Having a car is more convenient than Ubering everywhere.
We like to rent a car because we also like to stop and get drinks/snacks for the room.
We’ve done one day rentals picked up at airport and dropped off near DL then got another to go back but usually we keep it the whole time. Depends on price and what our plans are.
Midwilshuttle Feb 23rd we were charged $160 US to go from Disneyland to the airport.
Also used them to go from airport to Universal.
Used Uber from universal to Disneyland. This worked great, as we didnt know what time we were going to be done at the park, so prebooking a shuttle was not going to work for us.
