Galaxy v. RSL in Carson, CA An initial check... this is what I found without really digging.
If anyone is interested in arranging a road trip or a fly in, let me know and I will do some more serious digging! FLY? Flight, hotel and rental car for 2 nights (leaving Friday evening and Returning Sunday afternoon) starting @ $327 pp* DRIVE? 689.8 miles One Way (West Jordan to the Home Depot Center) 10.5 hours driving time. Hotels ??? per night *Does not include ticket to match! Last edited by Deuce : 12-30-2004 at 03:18 PM. | |||||

The last time I checked, Jet Blue had the best rates from SLC to Long Beach. But they only have one flight per day.
Southwest also has good rates. Carson & Long Beach have some industrial/commercial areas with hotels that aren't that popular on weekends. But on the other hand, if that's the weekend of the Long Beach Grand Prix, you're hosed. Unfortunately, you need a car to get to Victoria Street. Rodney the Galaxian may have a few good hints. | |||||

Disneyland What about Disneyland packages? Prices may be better to Anahiem than Long Beach, but a longer drive. But the family might "justify" the cost.

Just a thought, but I flew from Orlando to San Diego for so much less than LAX that I was able to rent a car for over a week and it was still cheaper overall.
We flew Southwest. | |||||

Whenever I lose my mind and decide to drive to LA or San Diego(Where the Mrs and I were sealed.) I stop in Prim and stay at Whiskey Pete's, it's just past Vegas and it's cheap. Then on the way back I stay in Mesquite, also cheap. But if you leave early and more than one person drives, than 10.5 hours is nothing and you won't need to stop.

If I can't sort out a road trip then I will definitely get a flight from Southwest or Jet Blue! Quote:

Is it an ok area? Anything I should know before I book a room near the Naval Weapons Station there? Motel 6 is $45.99 a night... half the price of the Long Beach/Carson Area(just a few miles away) that is why I ask if it is Ok area... Last edited by Deuce : 12-31-2004 at 09:59 AM. | |||||

Hey everyone... I am trying to find out if anyone is even remotely interested in driving or flying down to this match?
I ask because the Long Beach Grand Prix is the same weekend and I want to get something reserved or booked by the end of next week. If anyone else is seriously interested... let's talk about it! If no one is interested I am going to get things sorted for myself! So now is the time to speak up! | |||||

That area should be OK. Tiger Woods grew up near there, so it can't be all bad. If that Motel 6 is where I think it is, it's a farther from the freeway than some others; so leave yourself plenty of time to make it into Victoria Street's outrageously-priced parking lot. | |||||
