I need to get to San Francisco airport on Tuesday for a 9pm flight...

A couple of questions

1. What Caltrain near South San Jose has free parking? Can I park overnight?
2. How long will the Caltrain take from a South San Jose Caltrain to Millbrae station? I would take an uber from Millbrae to SFO.
3. Is it faster to just get a shuttle? I was quoted 79 dollars for a one way direct shuttle to the airport. Even though its expensive it seems like less hassle? Any opinions?

Thanks in advance

For the Caltrain, check this link: Weekday Timetable

As I remember, there is no need for Uber because you can take Bart for a very short trip to SFO. http://www.bart.gov/stations/sfia

Just get a shuttle unless you want to take your chances. Caltrain does not allow overnight parking, and even street parking is subject to a 48-hour limit.. people living in the areas around the stations know who's not supposed to be parking there. If you can get a ride or take a taxi to Tamien station, then you can take an express train to Millbrae in about an hour. I'd take the 5:56 pm train then take BART to the international station of SFO, where you can take a tram to where you need to go.

1. Tamien Station, and no
2. If you get a baby bullet/express train just under an hour. Otherwise about an hour and a half.
3. Yes, but it's many times more expensive. Could you take VTA (or Uber) to Tamien or Diridon station?
