Santa Barbara and Burbank airports are small and EASY and a quick 45 minute scenic drive through Southern California. LAX is a large and busy international airport in Los Angeles. The airfare may be a bit cheaper but keep in mind you will have to battle city traffic.
Shuttle service door to door LAX to Camarillo is $128 for 2 people round trip. Or $168 for 4 people
