turkeybabe Posted January 22, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2020 We presently have booked Princess transfer but I really do not want to be sitting on the bus waiting for it to fill up before we can drive to the airport. Somewhere I came across a comment that after disembarkation the lines for Lyft and Uber, as well as for taxi, are horrendous - one hour wait?! We arrive on a Sunday morning and would like to be at the airport for 10-10:30am. I am leaning towards a taxi as I think we would be dropped off closer to the terminal than with rideshare? Or just stick with the transfer? TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 22, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 22, 2020 First of all, if you are planning on a 10:30 flight, you are going to have a very stressful day. As far as I know, both taxi and rideshare can still drop you at the Terminal. Its the pickup that is the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeybabe Posted January 22, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Our flight is just after 1pm. I’ve cruised enough that would not book a 10:30am flight. Agree that would be too stressful! Been quite a few years since have flown out of SFO so imagine has changed a bit since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 22, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 22, 2020 1pm flight is not a problem. Use whatever transportation you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted January 22, 2020 #5 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Walk or take a trolley to BART (train) Embarcadero station it's 1 mile -- a 20 minute walk on a 20' wide sidewalk... then take BART to SFO. SFO's BART station is actually inside the SFO terminal. Google "BART Schedules". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty easy and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeybabe Posted January 25, 2020 Author #10 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Thanks all for the suggestions. I might just stick with the Princess transfer for now. Will likely use BART from SFO to hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Turtles06 Posted January 29, 2020 #12 Share Posted January 29, 2020 We disembarked in San Francisco last Friday (Pier 27), Jan. 24. We were not in a rush to get off the ship (we were staying for a few days), and had no problem getting an Uber at the cruise terminal. They were permitted to pull right up.

bafinegan Posted January 30, 2020 #13 Share Posted January 30, 2020 We booked a private car for both to and from the cruise terminal. Prices were (aprox) $20 more than the Carnival shuttle for 2! baf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
