I'm arriving Alaska at 832a -- and want to make the bus -- I don't want to wait an hour for the "next bus" when I could be in the park! Thanks for your help :)

    As for the Airport Bus, here is the schedule as posted at their website...

    <a href="http://graylineanaheim.com/airport_info.cfm" target="_blank">http://graylineanaheim.com/air
    port_info.cfm</a>

    >>Departures from SNA daily on an hourly basis from 7:45 a.m. to 9:45 a.m., with service offered every 30 minutes from 9:45 a.m. to 7:45 p.m.

    Hourly service resumes at 7:45 p.m. to 10:45 p.m.<<

    To me, that is that the bus leaves the John Wayne Airport at 7:45 AM, 8:45 AM, 9:45 AM, then every 30 minutes, so 10:15 AM, 10:45 AM, etc... until 7:45 PM, then it goes back to every 60 minutes, so 8:45 PM, 9:45 PM and 10:45 PM.

    With an 8:32 AM arrival, it looks like you would catch the 9:45 AM bus, after getting off the plane. So I would seriously look at a taxi, or if you are by yourself, a Shuttle Van. They all load in the same area, near the Baggage Claim area. (There is only one "Transportation Center" at SNA).

    It's a surprise trip for them. We have to come down to Long Beach to watch their older brother Crew - so theres no way I'm going to be that close to Disneyland and not fit in a couple days at the park !!!

    The airport is only 13 miles from Disneyland. I'd hop on Super Shuttle or a cab before taking the bus. A cab is probably cheapest.
