Why families and groups book this now
- Two Escalades, one trip. Up to 10 travelers leave together and land together: one booking, one call, two drivers tracking the same flight.
- Room for holiday luggage. Each Escalade IQ-L seats up to 5 with bags; the Rivian R1S takes up to 4.
- The Escalades go first. Wednesday Nov 25 is the peak outbound day and Sunday Nov 29 the peak return. There are two Escalades, and each takes one pickup per time slot, so the 4–9 AM departures go first.
- Family flying in? Book their SAN arrival pickup the same way and we track their flight.
- Flying LAX or John Wayne instead? San Diego ↔ LAX is a flat $425 ($445 from Chula Vista / South Bay) and San Diego ↔ John Wayne (SNA) a flat $299, any vehicle, per vehicle.
- Just two or three of you? Thanksgiving SAN airport rides start at $65 one way in the BMW i7.
