Airport Transportation

Getting to and from the Airport

UC Davis is located near two international airports: Sacramento International (SMF) and San Francisco International (SFO). You will likely fly into one of these airports and then need to take ground transportation to Davis or Sacramento. 

There are several ground transportation options from each airport to your final destination, including hired vans and cars, rideshares and public transit. Please be aware that these options range in cost and convenience, and some need to be booked in advance, so do your research.

When choosing flights, please keep in mind your arrival time, as SMF is typically a 20-30-minute trip to Davis and SFO can take between 2-3 hours depending on the time of day.
