Emeryville is one of the smallest cities in California by land area, wedged onto the waterfront between Oakland and Berkeley. It was once known as Butchertown for its meatpacking plants, and later gained a rougher reputation built on speakeasies, racetracks, and greyhound racing before redevelopment reshaped it entirely.
Today that same small footprint holds Pixar Animation Studios, IKEA, and the Bay Street shopping district, alongside a dense mix of residents and daily commuters. Its size cuts both ways for travel: everything in town is close together, but the city itself sits right at the edge of Oakland — which is exactly why OAK is such a short ride from here.
Emeryville also sits directly on the I-80 and I-580 corridor, with the Emeryville Marina and waterfront just west of the freeway and Bay Street's offices and apartments just east of it. That geography means most pickups are a short hop to the highway regardless of which airport you're headed to — it's the actual airport distance that varies, not how quickly we can get you moving.

Who Books This Ride
Emeryville packs a lot into a small footprint, and the reasons for booking a ride are just as varied — here's who we see most.
Studio staff catching a same-day flight, corporate teams from a Bay Street office, hotel guests without a rental car, and marina residents who'd rather not pay for long-term airport parking all end up booking the same way: one flat rate, a chauffeur who already knows the fastest way onto I-80 or I-580, and a pickup time that adjusts if a flight changes.

Bay Street shoppers & hotel guests
