Default "Easy" SF Bay Area airport

Same deal, $2, exact change, gotta buy the ticket in the airport, not on
the bus--which is an absurdly high fare for such a short ride.


Between Coliseum BART and OAK, there is also AC Transit bus #50, with a
fare of $1.50, or $1.25 with a transfer-from-BART pass. See
http://www.actransit.org .

BART from SFO to downtown San Francisco isn't cheap either:

downtown SF to SFO: $4.95
downtown SF to San Bruno: $3.25
San Bruno to SFO: $2.75

(San Bruno is the first BART stop on the line to downtown San Francisco)

For comparison, Coliseum to downtown San Francisco is $3.15 on BART, so
total fare between OAK and downtown San Francisco is $4.40 to $5.15.

BART information: http://www.bart.gov .

Caltrain is possibly useful for some destinations (need to take a BART
ride to Millbrae from SFO -- $1.50). See http://www.caltrain.com for
information.
