Thank you all so much for the propmt responses!

I had heard that the traffic was an issue to SAN and everyone seems to have verified this point. Sounds like the "Coaster" will be great, only issue seems to be the hours of operation.

Can't wait to get down to the "Beach", too bad my family will see more of it than I will. If the airport is as nice as the people who helped out on this thread.....it should be great!

Thanks to everyone for the help (as usual) from sunny southern California!!!
