The bus option sounds like a good one, I hate dealing with cabbies who think they are above dealing with the disabled. I don't need that stress, I want to enjoy my trip, so taking the bus would be a great thing.
I will have a small rolling cooler that I would check for the time I am at LAX so that I don't have to drag it onto the bus. Thanks for all the information, I tend to want no surprises on my trips, it makes it easier if I plan ahead for most of the issues that may happen.
The trip was moved back to January, but for awhile, it might be my last trip. I am hoping to at least take one trip a year from here on out, but you never know what the future brings.
Edited to add:
Are there other busses that stop where the Dash Downtown B stops in front of the station or will it be easy to get on the right one?
