Ok I have noticed a NUMBER of furs are taking either a Taxi or paying the ridiculous price the Fairmont hotel charges for their shuttle service.
There is a better way!
For just $2 one way you can take the light-rail directly from the airport to the Fairmont hotel and in reverse when you go home and here's how!
1. at both Terminal A and Terminal C there is a shuttle bus stop. Take the #10 shuttle bus labeled "airport Flyer" it will take you directly to the VTA light-rail station near the airport. The Stations name is "Metro/Airport"
2. now this next step is very important. there will be two Platforms for the station. one on the east side of the tracks. and one on the same side of the tracks that your shuttle will drop you off at. you want the platform on the same side as the Bus stop which is the southbound platform. At the platform pay the vending machine 2 dollars CASH! and it will dispense a ticket.
3. Once on the platform you will need to get on either the Blue or Green line train. Take the southbound train all the way down until you Reach the "Paseo De San Antonio" Station
4. Once off the Train and platform go slightly south about 100 feet till you reach the Corner Starbucks. once you round the corner in the distance you will see the Bridge between the Main Fairmont Hotel and the Auxiliary Tower. your there!!
and the best part is when the con is over you just get on the Light rail platform RIGHT NEXT to the Fairmont hotel which is the Northbound Rail and simply take the Light-rail back to the Metro/Airport station, Catch the #10 bus back to the airport and your on your way home!
Simple and easy! and you'll save so much money!!
Hope this helps! if you have any questions feel free to contact me!
