KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Cairns to San Francisco

  • San Francisco has three major international airports. San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is a convenient airport to use if you're trying to get to San Francisco, and it's also well located for easy access to other parts of The Bay.
  • For easy Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) access to the city, Oakland International Airport (OAK) and San Francisco International Airport are convenient. They are both under 15 miles (25 km) from downtown San Francisco, so they are about the same in regards to the cost of an Uber or Lyft. San Francisco International Airport has more options for international flights; thus, that will likely be your only option.
  • A good airport to use if you aren't going to San Francisco but rather to the South Bay is Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC), if you can get a flight there. If you are visiting Oakland, Berkeley or anywhere in the East Bay, Oakland Airport is much more convenient if flights are available.
