SFO · Arrival pickup
SFO publishes a single pickup zone for pre-arranged charter and limousine ground transportation. Per flysfo.com: 'Charter pick up and drop off areas are located in the courtyards on the Arrivals/Baggage Claim Level.' Chauffyr stages in these courtyards, matched to the arriving airline's terminal. Taxi, TNC and rideshare pickup zones are physically separate from the pre-arranged pickup courtyards.
Note · Source: flysfo.com /passengers/ground-transportation/charters (verified live 2026-08-25). SFO does not publish terminal-by-terminal door numbers for pre-arranged pickup; the Chauffyr desk re-confirms the exact courtyard per arriving terminal at dispatch.
SFO · Arrival guide
Per the airport's official ground-transport page (flysfo.com): Courtyards on the Arrivals / Baggage Claim Level. Your chauffeur meets you there, confirmed with your booking and flight-tracked. For in-terminal Meet & Greet, the chauffeur stands at baggage claim with a discreet name board and walks the guest to the staged vehicle. The 24/7 desk texts the chauffeur name, vehicle model and plate when on-site; exact zone and door are confirmed at booking so the chauffeur stages precisely where SFO's current rules allow.
Per the airport's official rules: Courtyards on the Arrivals / Baggage Claim Level (per flysfo.com). The 24/7 Chauffyr desk texts your chauffeur's name and vehicle plate once your flight lands. Add Meet & Greet and the chauffeur waits in baggage claim with a name board. Every arrival is flight-tracked, so a delay simply moves the pickup time.
Yes — for private aviation arrivals, Chauffyr books plane-side meets at Signature Flight Support and the Million Air SFO ramp where airport authority permits, otherwise in the FBO lobby. Share your tail number at booking and the desk times the car to the handler's clearance window.

How chauffeur pickup at SFO works
San Francisco International Airport is owned by the City and County of San Francisco and run by the SFO Airport Commission in California, United States. Its ground transportation page sets out where pre-arranged rides meet passengers; Chauffyr texts the chauffeur's name, plate and exact position at your terminal once you land.
Drive time to downtown San Francisco, downtown San Jose or Napa Valley depends on traffic; your quote confirms timing. Every estimate depends on traffic; your written confirmation carries the pickup window the desk recommends for your flight.
Yes. Any address in the Bay Area or wine country can be booked as a point-to-point fare from SFO, quoted and confirmed before you book. If the day has several stops, such as tastings or a roadshow, book hourly as-directed so the chauffeur and vehicle stay with you between appointments.
The routes below cover the most-requested SFO legs, each with drive-time and routing notes. For anything else, the quote widget on this page prices the exact addresses.
