Skip the US-68 Guessing Game — Book a Bus to Monterey Regional Airport
It's never been easier to get your group to Monterey Regional Airport (MRY) (200 Fred Kane Dr, Monterey, CA 93940) without the US-68 guessing game! The Monterey-Salinas Highway is a beautiful drive — and a notoriously unpredictable one. During Monterey Car Week in August, the Monterey Jazz Festival in late September, or any Laguna Seca race weekend, that 18-mile stretch can crawl for an hour or more.
One bus handles the timing, keeps your whole group together, and drops everyone curbside on Fred Kane Drive in front of the terminal — no juggling multiple cars, no hunting for short-term parking at $2 per half hour. Commercial ground transportation loads at the designated zone on Fred Kane Drive; have your group assembled before calling the bus forward. Compare minibuses and sprinter vans sized for your group at Salinascharterbuscompany.com — call 408-716-0149 to get started!
Make the SJC Run Comfortable for Your Whole Group
Browse a large selection of minibuses and charter buses for the 75-mile run north to San Jose International Airport (SJC) (1701 Airport Blvd, San Jose, CA 95110) — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos! The US-101 corridor through Salinas Valley is beautiful but it moves on its own schedule. Agricultural truck traffic is heavy year-round through the Salinas Valley, and the stretch from Gilroy through Morgan Hill toward San Jose slows during peak commute hours and harvest season (July through October).
A 56-passenger charter bus with reclining seats, onboard WiFi, and power outlets turns that 90-minute drive into productive or relaxing travel time for your whole group. At SJC, charter buses pick up at Terminal A Ground Transportation Center, Stop #4, and at Terminal B, Stop #11 in the middle island — not Stop #12, which is for scheduled buses. Compare your options at Salinascharterbuscompany.com now!
Get Your Group to SFO Without the Bay Area Headache
Find exactly what you need for the 100-mile run up US-101 to San Francisco International Airport (SFO) (San Francisco, CA 94128) — and make the whole trip comfortable instead of stressful! SFO is the right call when your group needs routes, airlines, or departure times that MRY simply doesn't offer, and a full-size charter bus with an onboard restroom, undercarriage luggage bays, and climate control makes the two-hour drive feel manageable. Curbside zones for buses and motorcoaches vary by terminal and change periodically for construction, so confirm your terminal's current bus drop-off point with SFO ground transportation before your travel date — a full-size coach generally uses a different curb than passenger vehicles.

Monterey Regional Airport (MRY) is the closest at about 18 miles west of Salinas via US-68 (the Monterey-Salinas Highway) — roughly 25 to 35 minutes off-peak. During Monterey Car Week in August, Laguna Seca race weekends, or the Monterey Jazz Festival in late September, that same stretch can take 45 to 60 minutes or more. SJC is about 75 miles north and takes 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes depending on Bay Area traffic and harvest-season truck traffic on US-101.
No. Salinas Municipal Airport (SNS) (30 Mortensen Ave, Salinas, CA 93905) handles general aviation only — there are no scheduled commercial passenger flights. Groups traveling commercially fly out of Monterey Regional Airport (MRY), San Jose International Airport (SJC), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), or Oakland International Airport (OAK), all of which are served by transportation companies in the Salinascharterbuscompany.com network.
Commercial ground transportation at MRY loads in the designated zone on Fred Kane Drive in front of the terminal building. Have your entire group assembled with all luggage before calling the bus forward — curbside staging time is limited. Check the Monterey Regional Airport ground transportation page for current curb access details before your travel date, since procedures can be updated.
Monterey Regional Airport (MRY) is convenient but small — it serves a limited number of airlines and destinations, and nonstop options are mainly to hubs like LAX, SFO, and PHX. Groups needing direct flights to the East Coast, the Midwest, or international destinations often find better options at SJC (75 miles north) or SFO (100 miles north). A charter bus with reclining seats, WiFi, and an onboard restroom makes the 90-minute to two-hour US-101 run comfortable for the whole group.
Book at least four to six weeks out for most trips, and stretch that to three to six months if your dates land near Monterey Car Week (early-to-mid August), the California Rodeo Salinas (mid-July), or the Monterey Jazz Festival (late September). Those weekends fill every available vehicle across Monterey County fast, and US-68 to MRY slows significantly. Waiting until the last minute means higher rates and limited vehicle selection — the earlier you compare through Salinascharterbuscompany.com, the better your options.

Yes — multi-stop pickup loops are one of the most common airport setups booked through the network! Whether your group is spread across hotels on North Main Street, a corporate office off Airport Boulevard, or private addresses throughout the Salinas Valley, the bus makes the loop and heads to the airport with everyone on board. Add roughly 10 minutes per stop when working backward from your flight time, and list your stops in order when you fill out the quote form so pricing reflects the full route.
