Amtrak to LAX

Anna and I are leaving out of LAX this Friday (actually 1am Saturday) for SE Asia. We usually take Amtrak up the coast (3 hours) to Union Station in downtown LA. From there we had to take three different metro trains to get to the shuttle that takes us to LAX. This is time consuming, and a pain in the ass.

While brushing up on the route last night I learned that we now have a new option – FlyAway. It looks pretty slick, direct bus to LAX for $3. Since it uses HOV lanes, it should be pretty speedy. We are going to give it a try.

I’m getting excited about our trip, but there is still a lot to be done before we leave.
