This morning I woke up early, but after the ship docked in Long Beach.
I finished packing my bag and went to breakfast at the Lido deck. I got some Lucky Charms and took some pictures of the cruise terminal and the Queen Mary.
I went back to the room and took my bags to deck 5 to relax on the side of the ship where there were seats and a power outlet.
Disembarkation was taking longer than I expected, so I am glad that I didn’t decide to take an Uber to the airport as it might have gotten pricey.
When my muster station was called there was a significant queue, so I decided to wait on the ship and keep my phone charged.
I finally got off the ship around 10:30 AM, when everyone was supposed to be off.
It didn’t take much effort to get through immigration, the facial recognition kiosk was pretty quick.
I found the queue for the LAX airport bus. I did have to wait a little for the bus, but my flight wasn’t scheduled until 6:45 PM.
The bus ride to LAX was quite short, much shorter than I expected. The stop for Southwest was the first stop.
When I arrived I found that I wouldn’t be able to check in until four hours before my flight. I set up my laptop and worked for a couple of hours while I waited to check in.
As soon as it was possible I checked in for the flight and dropped my bags.
I was through security quickly because of Clear.
My first stop was at Panda Express for lunch as I was starving. It was pretty good, but I was also pretty hungry.
Boarding the flight is always easy with Southwest, I didn’t check in on time so I had B58. I still managed to get a decent aisle seat.
The flight was uneventful and I watched a movie on the flight.
I arrived around midnight and was being trampled by other passengers who were apparently in a hurry.
