The route
The drive from Vacaville to SFO
The trip is about 65 miles. Outside rush hour it usually takes 75 to 90 minutes; weekday mornings into the city and Friday afternoons take longer, so we build that into your pickup time rather than leaving you to guess.
Your driver chooses the bridge on the day: the Bay Bridge and US-101 when traffic is moving, or I-880 and the San Mateo Bridge when the Bay Bridge is backed up.

Questions
Vacaville to SFO: common questions
How much is a private shuttle from Vacaville to SFO?+
One flat rate for the whole vehicle, not per person. The booking form shows the price for your date and vehicle before you pay, and that is the price you pay.

About 65 miles by road, via I-80 and either the Bay Bridge or the San Mateo Bridge. Outside rush hour the drive usually takes 75 to 90 minutes.
What time will you pick me up for an early flight?+
Three hours before a domestic departure and four before an international one. For a 7:00am domestic flight from SFO, that is a 4:00am pickup in Vacaville. Give us your flight number and we set the time for you.
Which SFO terminal will you drop me at?+
The one your airline uses. Domestic flights leave from Harvey Milk Terminal 1, Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, and we stop at the departures curb. International flights leave from the International Terminal, Gates A and G, where we drop you on Level 3.

Not a direct one. You can take the SolanoExpress bus to Walnut Creek BART and then BART to SFO, or the Capitol Corridor train from Fairfield–Vacaville station to Richmond and then BART. Both need a transfer, so check the first departures against your flight time.
