San Jose airport transportation - limousine, taxi service
You’ve worked with a large corporation headquartered near Pleasanton, California, for six months. The long-awaited time has come to close the deal that will insure a nice promotion for you and your team. You can’t afford any mistakes, and travel arrangements should be the least of your concerns. As you and your group step into the Mineta San Jose International Airport, the only thing on your mind is checking into the Hilton in Pleasanton for a restful night’s sleep. How hard could it be? The tough work won’t begin until tomorrow morning … tonight the world is “your oyster”.
You remember from a past visit to the airport that there are quite a few door-to-door shuttles that don’t require reservations. You don’t even need to know the company names because the vans simply wait in line at the loading point and rotate to pick up passengers. After your team has picked up their luggage, you head for the shuttle area. As you round a corner, horror fills your face. Apparently, everyone else thought the same thing you did. There’s a L-O-N-G line of people waiting for shuttles! Too bad the shuttles pick up on a “first come, first served” basis.
Groan … It’s going to be a L-O-N-G night!
OK … let’s suppose you did think ahead and make a reservation with one of the shuttle companies. As soon as all of you gather your luggage, you make a quick call and find the shuttle van waiting for you at the pickup point. You and three co-workers climb aboard for the ride to Pleasanton.
You’ll pay approximately $95.00 – $120.00 plus gratuity for this ride in the van. Remember vans? Those vehicles you have to step up to enter, then shuffle sideways bent over to get to a seat that’s behind the door, then scoot across the seat to make room for the rest of your party. Oh, dear! If only the group who used the van before you didn’t like garlic so much! Finally you’re at your hotel. Too bad you bumped your head as you shuffled sideways to exit. But don’t worry … the bump will be gone by the time you close the deal and take the shuttle back to the airport. Sigh!
THANK GOODNESS THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE! AAA Transportation has been serving clients at the San Jose International Airport since 2001. We believe rides to and from the airport should be the MOST COMFORTABLE part of your journey! For groups of three or less, we pick you up in one of our luxurious, late-model Town Cars with all of the plush amenities you deserve – leather seats, ample seat and leg room, complimentary sodas and beverages, climate controlled to your liking, and a ride so smooth you will wonder if you’re really moving. Plus, entering and exiting is S-O-O EASY!
AAA Transportation provides so much more than comfort and luxury … WE SAVE YOU MONEY! Our packages are very competitive, and our service is SECOND-TO-NONE. The trip for your group will only cost approximately $89.00 plus gratuity.
If your group numbers more than four people, we have first-rate limousines that escort you to your destination in high-style, ultra-comfort, and money-saving rates. We take great pride in providing A-1 transportation services in all forms.
Make your transportation reservations with our experienced staff NOW by calling 1-866- 558-0222 or online at www.aaa-trans.com.
