We're pleased to see Los Angeles World Airports' initiative to increase passenger traffic at nearby LA/Ontario International Airport.

The Ontario airport has seen its passenger volume shrink with the economy, from more than 7 million in 2007 to something less than 5 million expected this year. The recession has been very hard on airlines and the travel industry.

So LAWA plans to focus on out-of-town Disneyland visitors as a new target market for LA/ONT. The idea is to redistribute some traffic from LAX and John Wayne Airport in Orange County to LA/ONT.

We've always been supportive of redistributing air traffic from LAX to Ontario and Bob Hope (Burbank) Airport.

Peggy Ducey, the consultant who presented the plan at a recent meeting of the Board of Airport Commissioners in L.A., said she had spoken to officials from Disneyland and several Orange County cities, all of whom had expressed support. LAWA doesn't operate John Wayne Airport, but many Orange County officials and residents

Disneyland Hotel Gets an Update

I'm happy to report that the Disneyland Hotel recently entered an extensive renovation that should address many of our previous complaints. They're stripping everything down to the bare framework, putting in more electrical services and making the place more energy-efficient. Both inside and outside will get a new look. Finally, you'll actually be able to have a coffee maker in your room. The picture (courtesy of Disneyland) gives a peek at the new rooms' design. The hotel will be open during renovations, which are expected to finish in 2012.

The Disneyland Hotel spreads over three, twelve-story towers and has close to 1,000 rooms. The complex also includes Goofy's Kitchen, where you can dine with Disney characters and the Neverland Pool, a large swimming pool with themes from the Peter Pan story. I've been frank in expressing my opinion of it, saying it offers Best Western quality at over twice the price. You can read the Disneyland Hotel review to find out what else I had to say.

After Dan and Diana wrote to disagree with my review (read what they said by clicking on "comments" below), I set out to find out what others think. So far, people who have voted in our poll tend to think the hotel is worth the price. Also in the comments see what a former Disneyland hotel employee had to say for a different perspective.
