    RoyalLaker got a reaction from CrimsonCruiser in Diamond plus out of concierge lounges   
    I’ve always found being kicked off the ship at the end of the cruise more depressing than be told I can’t enter the lounge anymore. ?

    The thing about Port of LA and & Long Beach for out West is besides the airports, "All Freeways Lead to LA."

    It is easy to get flights (often multiple per day) from DETroit, MSP Minneapolis, CVG Cincinnati, DFW, LAS vegas, SEAttle, DENver, MCOrlando, MIAmi, ATLanta, JFK, and many other airports

    To one of several airports: LAX, LGB, SNA, BUR, ONT.
    Approximate drive from airports to the Port of LA (depending on time of day and traffic) are:
    Long Beach (LGB ~20 mins); American, Delta, SouthWest, Hawaiian
    LAX (~20+ mins); You name the airlines
    Santa Ana (Very Close to Disneyland  SNA ~35+ mins); Alaska, Allegiant Air, American, Delta,  Frontier, Southwest, Spirit, Sun Country, Untied
    Burbank (BUR ~40 Mins); SouthWest, American, Jet Blue, Alaska, Delta, United
    Ontario (ONT ~1 hr); Alaska, Avianca, China Air, Delta, Frontier, Hawaiian, Jet Blue, SouthWest, United, Volaris

    Even for an expanded trip:
    San Diego (SAN ~ 2hrs); Lots of sights, beaches, and ocean
    Palm Springs (PSP ~ 2Hrs+); Take in the sun and culture
    Las Vegas (LAS ~5 hrs); Vegas Baby!

    And Sightseeing further away:
    San Francisco (SFO ~ 6.5 hrs); 
    Phoenix (PHX 6.75 hrs);
    Salt Lake (SLC ~ 12 Hrs)

    For example, SLC (~12 hrs drive to Port of LA) you arrive in SLC, a hub for Delta & United then fly x-Hours + or drive 7 hours to LAS, stay for x-Days during weekday is cheapest, then fly, bus, or drive (5 hrs) a one-way to Port of LA or Disneyland). If you drive from SLC you can stop at Zions National Park and take in the sites. There is so much to do on your way to a B2B 3-4-5 night to turn it into a memorable family, couple, or friends trip.

    So lots of points to extend a 3 or 4 day with seeing Mother Nature (beyond what you see on the East Coast), sites, entertainment, and take in your cruise. That makes a 3-4-5 nights more worth the long trip from the East Coast).

    Even Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) is about midway as the Port of LA and Port of Miami about 20 hours. 

    In short, there are lots of options to many airports, then drive a rental and 'See The West'.

    I'm little surprised at the proposed rule, i'll have to look into that. Nuances? I think you are too kind in choice of words.?  I know the port and city have approved rebates programs to entice cruise lines back. 
    I would recommend looking into a direct to Long Beach.
