British Airways has frequent flights to San Francisco International Airport, which is located 13 miles south of Downtown San Francisco. Flights approach over San Francisco Bay, giving you beautiful views of the city. After your San Francisco flight lands, choose from minibuses (shuttle vans), taxis and trains. They all speed you to your hotel or to busy Powell Street for connecting buses and San Francisco’s distinctive cable cars.
After your flight to San Francisco International Airport, head to the BART train station just outside International Departures. BART trains (San Francisco’s Bay Area Rapid Transit system) are the cheapest way to or from San Francisco and take around 30 minutes. Get off at Powell Street for Downtown San Francisco. If you’d prefer a taxi after your flight to San Francisco, or if your hotel sends a shuttle van to meet your San Francisco flights, find them all waiting outside international Flight Arrivals. They get you into San Francisco in about 25 minutes.
When you’ve relaxed after your flights to San Francisco, stroll Downtown and take in San Francisco’s relaxed, good-humoured vibe. Look in tempting fashion stores around lively Union Square and plan what you’ll take home on your flight from San Francisco. You’ll find plenty of boutiques with distinctive San Francisco flair. Walk through San Francisco’s Dragon Gates into America’s biggest Chinatown. Or jump on one of San Francisco’s picturesque old cable cars to Fisherman’s Wharf for a typical San Francisco meal of freshly caught seafood.
