July 16, 2025Flew into KSQL to watch Giants game. Very simple in and out. Other comments had me concerned. Rabbit aviation made it even better. By dropping us off and picking up from train station. 5 min drive. Train was easy also. I will suggest to others to use Rabbit Aviation and this airport when visiting the Bay Area. Go Padres!
