Description
This article is from the King Hall Law School FAQ, by David F. Prenatt, Jr. NetEsq@dcn.davis.ca.us with numerous contributions by others.
6.4.1) How far is the airport from Davis and how do I get there?
The Sacramento Metropolitan Airport is about 20 miles from downtown
Davis. From Davis, head north on Hwy 113 or Rd 102 (Pole Line Rd)
until you reach I-5. Take I-5 South towards Sacramento. You can't
miss the airport.
If you are coming to Davis from the airport on I-5 North, be
careful not to miss the Davis exit at Rd 102. It is not very well
marked. Take Rd 102 Southbound until you reach Davis. You can't miss
Davis.
If you miss Rd 102, you will reach Hwy 113, which is very well
marked. If you do reach Hwy 113 by mistake, take it south to Davis.
It's quicker than doubling back to Rd 102, and perhaps missing your
exit a second time.
6.4.1.1) Where should I park at the Sacramento Metropolitan Airport?
Short term parking is usually available near the terminal of your
airline for 75 cents for the first half hour, $1.50 per hour to a
maximum daily rate of $10; long term parking is $1.50 per hour up to a
maximum daily rate of $5. Circle around the airport once before
parking to make sure that you know where you are going once you park.
6.4.1.2) Is there a shuttle service from Davis to the Sacramento Metropolitan Airport?
Yes. The Davis Airporter provides 24 hour service to the Sacramento
Airport (reservations are required) at a discount for U.C. Davis
students (proof of registration is required). Check with the Davis
Airporter at (916)756-6715 for more information. [Note: Other
companies provide shuttle service to the Sacramento Airport, but I
have not had occasion to use them.]
