Shuttle Visit

hi All,

Doing a Mileage Run that involves landing in LAX at 10am Saturday and leaving 6pm SUnday, with a free night stay at a Marriott (somewhere) on points.

Any advice for the shuttle visit?

Worth it?

Worth it? Of course.

Question is will you be able to? It has been selling out on weekends so book yours early. Entry to Science Center is free but separate charge for entry to the Space shuttle hanger to help pay for the permanent display.

If you are using Marriott points, try staying in Downtown LA (Marriott or JW). Take the Expo Line train to USC/Expo Park station and walk to the Science Center.

Looking at the link you provided, it looks like Endeavour only is $0, but with a $2 service charge. Is that what you mean by a charge to see it?

So it appears... thanks for the correction.

The free option was evidently not available when I visited. I had to pay extra with the Cleopatra exhibit (which is very good and worth it so I wasn't upset).

Note that the Lakers vs Knicks game starts at 12:00PM and the Clippers vs Nuggets game starts at 6:30PM so the JW might be packed. And yes I am going to both games.

Got the Residence inn in Burbank for free on points. Excellent reviews on TA.

Central to LAX, Camarillo Premium Outlets, Roscoes, Shuttle, etc
