Just left LAX and used PrivateCarApp through ShuttleFare to book a ride. super flexible given my flight arrived an hour early and it came 10 mins after I went curbside. Reasonable pricing too!

Uber black still does curbside pickup if you’re able to expense it, and waits are about the same as they used were for regular ubers before the switch

Just went through this. It was chaos, but the cab line seemed to move along more quickly than the Uber and Lyft lines (took 10-15 in the cab line). Also, if you are in Terminals 1 or 2 (and maybe even 7), it’s faster to walk to the pickup area vs taking the LAXit shuttle

Any ideas on how to make this change given it’s an entirely new route?

My wife got a job that requires us to relocate to San Diego. We have never lived there and know little about the city. We are planning to rent. We stayed in a hotel in little Italy and really loved the vibe there, but it’s too expensive for us. Are there other neighborhoods with similar vibes - restaurants, bars, lively, good for walking, clean, safe, young, diverse and accessible that are more affordable? Please share recommendations. How much should we reasonably budget to rent a 2bd/2bath?
