SJC to Palo Alto car service

From the terminal to Palo Alto
Add your flight number when you book, and we follow the flight. If it lands late, your free waiting moves with it: the 45 minutes run from the moment the plane is down, not from the time on your booking.
A text before pickup gives you your chauffeur's name, phone number and car. At the curb, you call or text once your bags are off the carousel, and your chauffeur, waiting close by, pulls up at arrivals. With meet-and-greet, your chauffeur stands in baggage claim with your name and helps with the bags all the way to the car; its fee is part of your quote.
The drop-off is the address you give us: a house in Palo Alto, a building at Stanford University, or a hotel such as the Garden Court Hotel, or Rosewood Sand Hill in Menlo Park.
Palo Alto to SJC
For the flight out, you pick the time to leave Palo Alto, and we leave that choice with you. Your chauffeur is at the door ahead of it, puts the luggage in the trunk and sets you down at Terminal A or Terminal B, wherever your airline flies from.
We drive 24/7, so a flight at dawn is no harder to book than one at noon. Booking both directions together? We quote the return with your arrival.
Other ways in
Landing at SFO rather than San Jose? The SFO to Palo Alto page covers that ride. Flying private, into Palo Alto Airport or one of SJC's private terminals? Those pickups are on our private jet and FBO car service page.
SJC to Palo Alto questions
How does pickup work at SJC?
It depends on what you chose when you booked: the curb, where your chauffeur comes to you after your call or text, or baggage claim, where you are met with a name sign. Both work the same at Terminal A and Terminal B.
Can you take me from Palo Alto to SJC for an early flight?
Yes. Set the pickup for whatever hour your flight needs; online booking stays open day and night, and our chauffeurs drive at every hour.
Which car suits 2 people with luggage?
A sedan seats 2 in the back and takes 2–3 bags. Carrying more than that? An SUV holds 5–6.
Can you drop me at Stanford University?
Yes. Any address on the Stanford campus can be your drop-off, just like a home or a hotel in town.
