Easy yes, two major cities on opposite sides of the country. But the flight too and from not so easy.
2 :
Pretty darn easy. Non-stop flights, choice of carriers.
3 :
Absolutly.Flights leaving on the hour and in between. 7 Major carriers. Bon Voyage
4 :
Flying? Absolutely. Driving or bus? Not so much. Too long.
5 :
If your flying yes its SUPER easy. They have lots of flights leaving SFO - JFK. Non stop. (But its a tad expensive) If your driving or taking greyhound. It will be a LONG ride.
6 :
Flying is indeed super easy since there are a good amount of airlines that fly non-stop to the 3 airports that serve NYC. Other methods just take more time and it is probably not as easy to find that many options due to the time consumption.

san fran alll the way i would explain but i shud not have 2 there is no competition san fran has the most beautiful architexture and historical sites plus better restauants and more diverse interesting people
2 :
I like San Francisco better because there are many fun places to visit like Chinatown, Fisherman's Wharf, and Union Square. Visiting Alcatraz is interesting and riding a cable car is fun. The hilly streets are amazing and the city is beautiful. There is a variety of good restaurants too. The city is loaded with history and fun things to do.

i dont know if you can take a train over the panama canal if u go make sure to not drink the water and wear bug spray
2 :
Not directly. You can travel by train, but you will have to drive or take a bus to the next train area. It would take a great deal of time for you to accomplish this, as the train is not the best mode of transportation to South America.
3 :
I am pretty sure that there is no trains that travel even as far as Guatemala. Some of the other central american countries each have some railroad networks but they are not connected. In any case, they are not widely used for transprotation even in Mexico, busses are faster and more widely used. The railroad networks in central america are largely from the banana growing regions to the ports and are not for passengers. As for bus or car transport the road has a gap between Panama and Columbia about 200 miles south of the canal in a dense swamp/jungle.
4 :
No, you can't, not all countries have trains.
5 :
No. In between Panama and Colombia there's a huge stretch of jungle that blocks traffic. You'd have to take a boat from Panama to Cartagena. and then continue the journey south.

About How long does it take to travel from transby terminal to san francisco airport

How long does it take to travel from transby terminal to san francisco airport?
I'm arriving in San Francisco by greyhound bus, and need to get to the San Francisco International Airport. I am traveling on a Saturday. Does anyone know how much taxi fare would be or the best public transportation route would be? Car rentals are not an option. Thanks!

Transit: Walk to Market Street (2 blocks up Fremont Street) and take the subway. 35 Minutes. Costs $5.15. Taxi: 25-30 Minutes. Costs approx. $40.00 + tip. Given the cost differences, I'd take public transit and save all that money.
2 :
PS the public transit system referred to in the first post is called BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) and you'll know you're above a station when see signs that say "ba" on Market Street. You will have to buy a magnetic striped ticket from the machines which you use to enter and exit the system. Once you get down to the platform you want a train that says San Francisco Airport or Millbrae. The other trains don't go there. Trains only come every 20 minutes on Saturday. Hope this all helps.
3 :
GO TO MARKET STREET AND GET ON THE BART TRAIN... GET ON THE MILLBRAE IT WILL RUN EVERY 20 MIN... ONCE YOU GET ON THE BART IT WILL ONLY TAKE ABOUT 15 TO 20 MIN TO GET THERE... FARE IS ABOUT $5.15
4 :
I've taken a taxi from Transbay Terminal to SFO and it costs you between $50 to $75 depending on the route. If you are going to take a taxi, tell the driver to go turn left on 5th street and get on 101 South straight down to South San Francisco - SFO. It will only take less than 15 minutes from the moment you get on the Freeway to SFO. http://yellowcab.com If you are going to take the bus (Samtrans), it will cost you $1.50. The Samtran bus leaves from Transbay Terminal and it is Bus #292 and it goes to SFO. It will take one hour and 15 minutes. http://www.samtrans.com/pdf/Maps/Route_292_6_22_03_MAP.pdf If you are going to take BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit), you can walk one block West to Market Street and take BART from Montgomery BART Station. The BART fare will be $5.15 and it will take 32 minutes. http://www.bart.gov Good luck on your trip. 20 years in SF.

About Is it possible to travel from San Francisco to Madras, India without flying

Is it possible to travel from San Francisco to Madras, India without flying?
I know it is technically possible, I know it is possible if I owned my own yacht or freighter. But I am just an ordinary middle class guy with a lot of time and a few 10s of thousands to dollars. Can it be done as a series of sea and land based travels?

It's possible. Have you checked with your local travel agent? It seems like it would be time consuming though.
