I had essentially the same experience–I did SJC to SBA a few times a year when I was in college (which for the non-Californians here, is a destination that does not really have an airport you would want to use). I took Greyhound the first few times and then switched to Amtrak, even though it took 2-3 hours longer. I'll take that every time just by being able to get up and walk around. And the views coming in around Point Conception as the sun sets are priceless :)
- petemill 2y agoWhy wouldn't you want to use the SBA airport? It's lovely, scenic and has quite a few routes and airlines these days.
- saagarjha 2y agoI would love to but it was (is?) quite expensive to fly out of. I think if you book far enough in advance the prices are within a factor of two or so but I generally didn't bother. The one time I did use it was when Google flew me out for an onsite on two day's notice–so I can confirm that it is an excellent airport, with security that takes all of two minutes and a really pretty 45 minute flight to SFO–but the final bill for that roundtrip was something like $400. I remember the recruiter being surprised at the cost.
