This is my first time attending SDCC and I'm staying in the Mission Valley area which is on the shuttle route.I've got a question for people who have taken the shuttle before to and from the convention center: 1) Is it easy to get on board? Like, would each shuttle be so full and crowded that you can't go up the shuttle and have to wait for the next one?2) Based on your experience, can you get a seat on the bus or do you have to stand all the way to your destination?Thanks!
I don't believe they let people stand. The buses are very comfortable and cool. We just spent a few days in Yosemite fighting for space on their shuttles and I kept thinking how nice the SDCC shuttles are in comparison There will be times when you may have to wait for another shuttle, time of day is the main factor. When you are leaving the hotel part of it also depends on where you are located on the shuttle route. We haven't stayed in Mission Valley but hopefully others will have more specific advice.
I would like to confirm that the shuttle would travel in the order that is listed on the route? For example for the Red Route, I assume the shuttle would start picking people up at Handlery Hotel San Diego, then proceed to Crowne Plaza San Diego, so on and so forth, and end at Town & Country Resort before it travels to the Convention Center? And when it travels back from the Convention Center, they would drop off at Handlery Hotel again and down the list?
We’re staying at the Gaslamp Plaza Suites - anyone have an idea where the closest shuttle is since it’s not an official Con hotel?? Thanks for any ideas
Your only real shuttle option is to walk up to Broadway and 6th and use the Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown stop curbside on 6th, which is a block or so North of Gaslamp Plaza Suites.This stop services three hotels, Courtyard, Hotel Palomar, and Andaz, so I'm not sure what the crowds will be like.Other than that, you can walk the 8 blocks or so down 5th to the convention center.
