That said, I definitely prefer a night in LAX than a night in JFK (or PHL, or CLT). LAX airport hotels have very frequent shuttles... and I just love the flagship check-in in LAX

I have selected the Holiday Inn at LAX for that reason, plus have chosen a 14.00 departure to Tucson the next day to give some recovery time from arriving at 00.20 the same morning in LAX after leaving DUB on my tier point run.
