Jet Blue was great. Effecient, clean, friendly, and cheap.
Absolutely nothing to complain about. Will definatley fly them again. It was about $100 RT from Long Beach to Oakland, and getting from Oakland to SF was very inexpensive and easy. Check out their lamenated Pilates cards that are in the seat pocket along with the inflight magazine. Very progressive with witty commentary copy. Leave a Comment

This always used to be my gateway to San Francisco and the bay area. Back then it was the only airport connected to BART, and most of my friends live in Oakland anyway. Add to that I used to fly Southwest and well it all made sense. Now with its continued reliance on the Bus to the BART I find it more complicated to come in here than SFO. Leave a Comment

The San Francisco International Airport is a modern and efficient facility with information booths in each terminal's baggage claim area and easy connections to downtown. The best way to get there in my opinion is on the train (BART). The BART station is located on the Departures/Ticketing Level (Level 3) of the International Terminal and a ticket into town will only set you back $4.95 compared to around $30 for a taxi or a minimum of $12 for a shuttle bus.

Technically, this airport is south of the city limits between South San Francisco and Burlingame in San Mateo County. I have gone into and out of this airport on one occasion in August, 1985. I flew in on TWA 843 from New York's John F. Kennedy Airport and back out on TWA 842 to New York. San Francisco International stands out as my first final destination airport. I enjoyed my first two flights, but it was sure enough nice to finish that 5-hour flight from New York. This is the one part of San Francisco I may visit in the future because it may be the launching point for any future trip to Asia or Australia. SFO is easier and more compact than LAX.

If you are flying into San Francisco, you have a choice of three airports. I have landed in all three airports. SFO is the main hub for international flights.
If you are transfering flight connection between these airports, factor ample time as there is traffic jam during rush hours between airports. I almost missed my flight back to Asia when I changed my flight from Maine to San Jose instead and then drove to SFO airport.

We flew Manchester/England to New York then had about a 2 hour wait, then flew to San Francisco. It was a really long journey, especially as it was our first time to the States.
We flew with Delta airlines, and I think the cost was just over £400.00 each return. But that was August when prices are usually higher. I had never flown with Delta before and I can honestly say, the staff and service were extremely good on both outward and inward flights.

i flew into the SFO airport. there is also the san jose and oakland airports nearby. if you do not have a car while you are in san francisco, i recommend getting a shuttle, rather than a taxi to wherever you are staying. it ranges from about 12-17 dollars to be taken from the airport to your hotel. you will be going with a few other passengers, so you may not be the first to be dropped off..i personally appreciated this though, it gave me a chance to see more of the city as other people were let off at their hotels.
while in the city lookout for a blue booklet with san francisco coupons. i found a $10 dollar coupon for american airporters shuttle for my trip back to the aiport. i paid $17 on my way into san francisco. don't forget to tip the driver. and if you are coming from san jose, or oakland airports the cost of these shuttles will be from $40.00-$90.00...
in union square you will find the powell and market st station. here you have access to the cable cars, muni, bus, and bart railway systems. if you are staying for multiple days i would recommend getting a muni pass. it's $10.00 for 3 days, unlimited use of cable cars, muni or bus transportation. note that the 'bart' is not included in the muni pass. once you are on powell and market you'll see an escalator going down. if you take it, and go straight ahead you will find the sf visitor's center with an array of brochures. there are also people there to help answer your questions. ..but the best way of transportation, which most people use..is to walk! you can see a lot of the city just by walking around.

Most visitors to San Francisco will arrive a the city's main international airport. There are direct flights to Asia, Europe, and all over the United States. This makes San Francisco an ideal gateway city. Once you arrive here, there is easy public transportation to the city. BART, the train network that runs throughout the bay area, now directly accesses the airport. This will provide a direct link into the city. There are also public busses that serve the airport. If you are mainly sticking to the city center, there should be no reason to get an expensive cab or to rent a car. You do not want to spend half of your trip looking for a parking spot.
Another airport, Oakland International, is just across the bay from San Francisco's airport. It has a bus known as Air Bart that quicly accesses BART from that side of the bay. Likewise, BART can bring you from Oakland into the city. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Korean Airlines is largest airline based in South Korea, it operates a network that links Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, North America to its hub at Incheon International Airport and its domestic hub at Gimpo International Airport.It flies to about 110 cities in more than 30 countries worldwide. The Asia/Pacific region and the US account for most of its traffic. The airline extends its network as part of the SkyTeam global marketing and code-sharing alliance, which is led by Delta Air Lines and Air France. (Code-sharing allows carriers to sell tickets on one another's flights.)
Incidentally, it provides the cheapest fare to South Korea
