⚠️ Staying in Anaheim but flying out of SAN (~1.5 hr drive) means a ~3:30 AM wake-up for the 6:15 AM flight. Consider spending the last night near San Diego airport instead.
🚗 Car (you fly into SAN)
- You'll want a car — SAN→Anaheim + SD/OC spots are spread out.
- Turo Tesla Model Y (5.0★, All-Star host): ~$318 base + $70 airport delivery + taxes ≈ $480–620 all-in.
- ⚠️ Your Chase Sapphire does NOT cover Turo — buy Turo's protection plan (credit-card CDW excludes peer-to-peer).
- Cheaper: Costco Travel economy (~$250–350, waives your under-25 fee); decline their insurance (CSP covers real rental cos).
- ⏰ Set the Turo end time to early Aug 17 so the car is your ride to SAN for the 6:15 AM flight.
🏨 Stay — Anaheim Resort District
Hotel > Airbnb. Harbor Blvd / Katella — walk or ART shuttle to Disney + Convention Center. ~$150–300/night. ⚠️ Last night: consider a hotel near SAN for the early flight.
