Burlingame is the closest Peninsula city to San Francisco International Airport, and Global Link Transportation arranges limo and black car service across it — from SFO to downtown Burlingame Avenue, the bayfront hotels, and the Caltrain station on California Drive. A chauffeur handles the short airport run or the longer trip into San Francisco, the Peninsula, or Silicon Valley, with a sedan, SUV, limousine, or Sprinter to match the party. Book an airport transfer or an hourly chauffeur and your car is confirmed before you land.
Pickup points cover the whole SFO hotel cluster: the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport, San Francisco Airport Marriott Waterfront, Embassy Suites, and Hilton San Francisco Airport Bayfront, plus downtown Burlingame Avenue addresses, the Burlingame Caltrain station, and Bayfront Park. The drive from SFO to Burlingame is about five minutes; downtown San Francisco is roughly 25–30 minutes via US-101, Palo Alto about 25 minutes, and San Jose about 35–40 minutes. Airport pickups include flight tracking and a name-sign meet at arrivals, with the airline and flight number taken at booking.
Burlingame is where flight crews, airline staff, and business travelers staying at the airport hotels book most — a 5 AM departure or a midnight arrival is a routine pickup here, and the service runs 24 hours. Wedding parties book Burlingame too, with Kohl Mansion the best-known local venue, and conference guests at the bayfront hotels use an hourly chauffeur for multi-stop days. A Sprinter suits a crew or a wedding party traveling together; a sedan or SUV suits a solo traveler or a couple.
A Burlingame booking can also be the start of a longer day: an SFO pickup that continues to a Napa Valley or Sonoma wine tour, a corporate roadshow down the Peninsula, or a wedding weekend. Hourly chauffeur service carries a 4-hour minimum, and airport transfers come with fixed fares and no surge pricing.
