SFO to San Francisco State University Private Car Service
Private, direct transportation from San Francisco International Airport to the SF State campus on Holloway Avenue, its residence halls and apartments in the neighbourhoods around it.
A transfer, not a tour: no stops and no guide — we pick you up at SFO and drive you directly to San Francisco State University.
Flat rate $85 one way, either direction
A Economy Sienna runs a flat $85 one way between SFO and San Francisco State University — the same price to the airport as from it, no surge, no meter, no per-bag charge. The exact all-in fare for your car is shown in the booking flow and confirmed before you pay.
A party larger than a car's seats is booked as a request: we find a vehicle that fits and confirm the price before you commit.
The booking flow adds the $5.50 SFO airport fee, shown as its own line: $90.50 all-in for the Economy Sienna.
Pickups between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. add the published night fee, shown as its own line before you pay. Gratuity is not required or expected.

Why travelers book this route
SF State is one of the closest campuses to the airport — twenty-five minutes up 280 — and that closeness is exactly why arriving students get caught out: the trip is short enough to leave to chance, and then a first-year lands at eleven at night with two hold cases and a duvet.
Many of the people on this drive are international students on their first arrival in the country, with a residence-hall check-in time to make. A booked car is confirmed before the flight, waits at the arrivals curb with the driver's name and plate already texted, and goes to the hall's own door.
The same booking works at the other end of the year: the pickup at your hall, timed to the flight home, at the same rate.
Arrivals curb, flight tracked, driver confirmed by text
Book online in about a minute — no account, no app. A person reviews the request and texts back to confirm the ride and the fare; on the day, the driver texts before pickup and again on arrival. Then it is the drive to San Francisco State University, direct, with no other passengers and no stops.
Add your flight number
We track the flight. A late landing moves your pickup rather than losing it, and there is no waiting fee for flight delays.
Meet at the arrivals curb
Collect your bags and step out to the arrivals curb at your terminal. We text your driver's name, car and plate before you land.
Luggage goes in the car
The driver loads at the curb and unloads at your door. Enter your bag count when you book so the right vehicle comes — the minivan for a family or four large cases.
The way back, curbside
For the ride to your flight home, the driver drops you at the departures level of your terminal, with the pickup time set against your check-in.
About San Francisco State University
The campus sits at 19th Avenue and Holloway in the southwest corner of the city, ten minutes from Daly City and the ocean: the residence halls and student apartments on the west and south sides, the Cesar Chavez Student Center and the library in the middle, and Stonestown across 19th Avenue.
One published rate covers the whole west side of San Francisco, so the fare is the same to a residence hall, an apartment in the Sunset or the Richmond, or a hotel near Golden Gate Park.
- Give us the residence hall or the building — the campus has several entrances off Holloway, Font and Lake Merced Boulevard, and the driver goes to the one that serves yours.
- 19th Avenue backs up on weekday afternoons. Your driver takes Lake Merced Boulevard or 280 when it does, and the fare is the one you booked.
Three levels of private airport transfer



Every level is a flat rate, both directions, with airport parking included. Exact fares for your route are shown in the booking flow, confirmed before you pay. Premium and Black Car run the same two cars — what changes is how you are met, how long the driver waits, and how the driver is dressed.
San Francisco State University to SFO private car service
The return is a booking of its own, on the same form at the same rate: the button opens it with the pickup at your residence hall or building at SF State and the drop-off at SFO. Add the flight number and we set the pickup time against the check-in your airline wants, allowing for the traffic on the way.
How long does it take to get from SFO to SF State?
About 25 minutes with the roads clear, up 280 and along 19th Avenue. Weekday afternoons add ten or fifteen minutes; your driver plans for it, and the fare doesn't change.
Can you pick us up directly at SFO?
Yes. Add your flight number when you book and we track the landing. Collect your bags, step out to the arrivals curb at your terminal, and your driver is there — we text the driver's name, car and plate before you land. There is no waiting fee for a late flight.
I am arriving from abroad for the first time — how does it work?
Book before you fly and you have nothing to arrange on the day. We text the driver's name, car and plate before you land, the driver meets you at the arrivals curb of your terminal, and the fare was fixed when you booked. If your flight is late we follow it and move the pickup.
Which car should we book?
Economy is a Toyota Sienna — the car for a move-in or a family arriving together: the rear seats fold flat for bedding and boxes. One student with a case or two rides in the same car. Enter your bag count when you book and we'll say if the car looks tight.
Is the ride private?
Yes. The car is yours alone, direct from the airport to your address — no other passengers, no stops, and no waiting for a van to fill up.
Can you drive us from SF State back to SFO?
Yes, at the same rate. Book the way back as its own transfer: your hall or apartment as the pickup, SFO as the drop-off, with the flight number.
What is added to the fare?
Only the SFO airport fee, shown as its own line in the booking flow before you pay — the drive crosses no toll bridge. No meter, no surge, no per-bag charge, no booking fee. Gratuity is not required or expected.
