What airport should I fly into?
The closest airport is the John Wayne Santa Ana airport, which is 10 minutes from the hotel. There is a free shuttle between the hotel and airport, which runs every 30 minutes. The next closest is the Long Beach airport, which is about a 20-30 minute drive! Los Angeles International Airport is larger/has more options, but is further away, about 40 minutes to an hour and a half depending on traffic. It is also typically--but not always--more expensive.
