What a great alternative airport!

[@FreedomFinanceFun]

I love flying to Hawaii through LGB

[@KevinMeno2008]

Hawaiian & Southwest fly every day from LGB to HI.

[@Brian_L_5168]

Thanks for the video. I have picked up family in LGB but never physically visited. What a gem 💎 in LA. They should expand into an international airport just like ONT !

[@YellowProductions]

That'd be nice!

[@alanwchase7449]

Flew into LGB on JetBlue several years ago on a Disneyland trip with my daughter.So easy to get through and very easy access to rental cars.

[@Thomastimelesstrails]

Great informative review as always Christopher! Love flying out of Long Beach for my Southwest flights! Easy and probably the least stressful airport. Always love the outdoor area with the sea breeze coming in.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Thomas! Fresh air is nice!

[@jimmyjames6492]

Thanks for the info + video!

[@philvie]

I fly out of ONT ( Ontario ) airport, can't beat it

[@jeeamysk498]

Very good sharing ❤

[@Errordemn6]

It's the best airport in Southern California

[@BenMonares]

But it doesn’t go to all the destinations that LAX serve and also it doesn’t serve international flights and it’s cost more to fly out of Long Beach

[@bluekewne]

​@@BenMonaresDuring southwest's sales (which happen often) you can find LGB is on par with LAX prices.

[@jameshiga8077]

Hi Chris. Nice tor of LGB. I imagine it to be a much larger airport. So much better than LAX. Thanks for sharing, take care and enjoy the Labor Day Weekend.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks James. Yeah it's pretty tiny really

[@StephenDelaCruz]

Thanks for the video. I've never visited LGB and next month will month will be the first time. Arriving from Las Vegas

[@YellowProductions]

Awesome Stephen

[@tatjana_autistic]

You're the best, Chris! Thank you for making this video and for showing around the Long Beach airport both inside and outside. 🤗🙏It's my favorite.👍😄 It's good that you can wait outside if it's too much to wait inside. If being sensitive to too much noise or having anxiety because of a lot of people, it's perfect to go outside and breathe fresh air before boarding the plane. Do you enjoy visiting the airport even if you don't have travel plans? Maybe just for going to eat something. 🙂😋🍴🧋

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Tatjana. I certainly enjoyed visiting the Singapore airport even when I wasn't traveling.. as you probably remember from that vlog I spent about a half day at that airport mid trip 😀

[@BillGreenAZ]

I'll never forget the time I left Huntington Beach early (2:30pm) on a Friday afternoon in my truck. Even though I left early it took me 3 hours to get to Victorville on my way to Vegas. Bumper to bumper traffic the whole way. It was the last time I drove to Vegas from the LA area. I used to love to take JetBlue from LGB to Vegas. It was a quick 1-hour flight over the mountains and down into the Las Vegas valley watching TV all the way. Parking at the airport was a dream. The only thing I didn't like about LGB was that the baggage claim was outside back then (mid- to late-2000s) and yes, I did arrive when it was raining.

[@YellowProductions]

Oh yeah... Friday from LA/OC to Vegas is super rough!

[@bluekewne]

I fly to LGB as much as possible - even with my flight to Tokyo from LAX I'm still flying to LGB the day before haha

[@RR-fg2rl]

My favorite airport in socal area is palm springs beautiful outdoor also . Flew out of long Beach in the 80s in a sea plane to Catalina landed on water in avalon

[@YellowProductions]

Neat!

[@NostalgiaMan]

LAX was a nightmare. I secretly love LAX though. I never have flown into long beach though

[@YellowProductions]

"Why I Secretly Love LAX" Could be a good title for a video 😀

[@NostalgiaMan]

@@YellowProductions Very cool. Who doesn't have some enjoyment there lol

[@geniuzg]

Didn’t know this existed and I lived in LA all my life lol

[@Traumatix685]

It all depends on where you live. If you live below La but still reside in the county vs Orange County, then you go to LGB (SNA or JWA though convenient in Oc can be stressful with the steep ascents for the likely wealthy residents to muffle noise complaints of jets taking off, and there’s the 405 freeway right next to the airport where there already have been some Landing mishaps because of the freeway being right next to the landing strip). If you live in Pasadena and of course Burbank east of LA but still next to LA, then Burbank. If you live farther out east like West Covina/diamond bar/Pomona then you go to ONT.

[@bluekewne]

In a nutshell if you live in: 562 - LGB 323 - LAX 714/949 - SNA

[@julieb3432]

I live in Long Beach and love our little local airport. Much better than LAX.

[@alexbr550]

Hello I am a rideshare driver in the area, sometimes I get people going from Anaheim to this airport. I was hoping to see in your video where the passenger pick up is for rideshare so I know as a driver...

[@YellowProductions]

Hi Alex.. ah. Sorry I've only ever driven and parked there. So not sure where the rideshare pickup is

[@edvaira6891]

This looks like it’s even smaller than Burbank…definitely smaller than Ontario or John Wayne (and, seriously?! No jet-bridges?? THAT would definitely be a deal-breaker with my family)

[@YellowProductions]

Yeah.. super small. Just walk right up to the plane is indeed very unusual in the USA for planes of this size

[@gs7585]

Love flying LBC to Hawaii. ANYTHING to avoid LAX.

[@YellowProductions]

Nice

[@derekevans8294]

I've never been. But I've beem to the Burbank Airport. That is a lot better than LAX also

[@docrob0327]

LGB airport is terrible. The parking is a joke. The waits. The lines. Don’t do it!!! Dude, why are you telling folks about LGB? 😕 send those folks to LAX!! Or Burbank or anywhere else.

[@joemoma69]

Lgb has no lines. tf u talking about. LAX has much more traffic than lgb

[@docrob0327]

@@joemoma69 no. It’s terrible. Hahaha. I love LGB airport and I need it to stay the best kept secret. Let them keep going to LAX or all the way out Burbank or anywhere else.

[@joemoma69]

@@docrob0327 I agree. Lgb should be kept a secret with locals
