Lax - Sna?
Ugh, getting worse, not better, IMO.
Does it HAVE to be SFO and not SJC or OAK? Because LAX-BUR is a relatively easy task - Green Line Rail to Union Station to Metrolink north and there is a stop right outside of the entrance to BUR on Empire Ave. UA is the only BUR-SFO option, but WN flies BUR-SJC/OAK.
The nearest rail station to SNA would either be Anaheim or Santa Ana, neither of which are less then five miles or so from SNA. I would think a bus would be your only option and that would be a long ride on surface streets.

What the. . . ?
Geez, is this some kind of riddle or something like that? "If the Metrolink train is traveling at 45 MPH with 6 stops and costs $8, and a taxi to it costs $17, is it cheaper to take buses with 32 stops that last 4 hours, blah blah blah . . . "
Better send this in to Marilyn vos Savant!!
