Two Ways to Ride to SJC
Pick the option that fits your trip. Both are flight-tracked and bookable in advance.
Private Car
A dedicated sedan, SUV, or limo just for your group. Direct route, no other stops.
Best for: business trips, families, anyone who wants a flat rate and door-to-door privacy.
Shared Shuttle
A Sprinter van or shuttle bus shared with other riders, at a lower per-seat price.
Best for: solo travelers and budget-conscious groups who can allow extra stop time.
Which Terminal Are You Flying From?
SJC has two terminals. Tell us your airline and we will have your chauffeur at the right curb.
Skip the Transfers: Door to Door SJC Airport Pickup
SJC connects to VTA's free Airport Flyer bus, which links both terminals to Milpitas BART and the Winchester light rail line. From there, riders can transfer again toward Caltrain, ACE, or Amtrak at Diridon Station.
That network works fine if you are not in a hurry. Our door to door SJC airport pickup service skips every one of those transfers. We take you straight from your home or office to the curb, luggage and all, with one driver and one car the whole way.
From Grocer's Airfield to Silicon Valley Gateway
SJC traces back to 1939, when wholesale grocer and future mayor Ernie Renzel negotiated the purchase of 483 acres from the Crocker family. Test pilot James Nissen leased the land for a flight school and became the airport's first manager. Scheduled airline service began in 1948 with Southwest Airways DC-3s flying a multistop route between San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The airport was renamed in 2001 to honor Norman Y. Mineta, San Jose's former mayor and a U.S. Secretary of Transportation. Today it sits just 3 miles from downtown, closer than SFO or OAK, right in the middle of the Silicon Valley companies that keep it busy.

Built Around Silicon Valley Travel
SJC's location puts it minutes from the tech campuses of San Jose, Santa Clara, and the surrounding South Bay. Business travelers use a private car for a quiet ride to a same-day meeting, while visiting teams book a shared shuttle to save on a multi-person trip.
Families flying in for a visit and students heading to a nearby university also rely on us, since both options run the same flight-tracked, flat-rate way, 24 hours a day.
