Third cruise for me (31) and hubby (37). One on RCCL, One on Carnival, 1st on Princess.
Flew in to LA on Friday. Stayed at LA Harbor Hotel, soon to be Crowne Plaza in San Pedro. Fly, Stay and Sail package included transfers from the airport to the hotel, to the cruise terminal and back to the airport, bottle of wine, breakfast.
Embarkation on Sat. The QM2 was in the same port, so the crowds were more than normal. We arrived at about 2:45 and were in our cabin by 3:30. It was very quick and easy. Our luggage arrived by 5:00.
