San Francisco International Airport

San Francisco International Airport is 14 miles south of the city. Travel time to the centre during rush hour is about 40 minutes; at other times it’s about 20 to 25 minutes.

GETTING INTO TOWN FROM AIRPORT

BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit, the San Francisco metro, www.bart.gov) began running from the airport to the city in June 2003. This new route avoids traffic and costs about $6 each way, depending on exactly where you’re going. Trains leave approximately every 20 minutes.

Taxis from the airport to the city centre cost $30 to $35, plus tip (this should be around 10% of the fare).

Airport buses leave from outside the baggage-claim area every 30 minutes from 5.35 a.m. to 9.05 p.m. They stop at several Union Square-area hotels, including the Grand Hyatt, San Francisco Hilton, and Palace. No reservations are needed. For the return trip, the buses pick up at hotels as early as 5.30 a.m. Make a reservation 24 hours in advance if possible. the cost per person is $13 single, $22 return; children under 12 are free.
