The cheapest way is to become a travel agent and get agent discounts...and get to write it off on your taxes... Let me know if you want to know more...it's so easy! check out my travel site...www.globetrottingspot.com
2 :
Amtrak rail from SF to Bakersfield, then Amtrak bus to Grand Central Station then train again to nearby stops in LA.
3 :
Post on Freecycle that you're looking for a ride. One never knows, do one?
4 :
I think you've got it. I don't think it gets much cheaper than Megabus. Book well in advance and you can score one of those $1 seats :)

About What is the economical way to travel between San Francisco and Detroit frequently

What is the economical way to travel between San Francisco and Detroit frequently?
Hi, I want to travel to Detroit from SFO frequently, could you please help me with the economical way for this. I dont mind going in train, bus, flight etc also any near by airports is also fine. And I travel almost once in 15 days, your help is much appreciated. Regards, S San Francisco - 3 Answers

greyhound is probably the cheapest way to go. but if you're flying, oakland airport is generally cheaper to fly in and out of.
2 :
How much time can you afford to spend traveling? Amtrak will take several days, and I assume the bus will also take several days. Either way, you are going to be sinking a lot of your time into traveling, and even if it is cheaper than flying (Amtrak is usually the same or even more expensive), not being able to work for several days may not be worth any savings you are getting. I would suggest getting familiar with hunting for bargain air fare. There are websites where you can get great deals on last minute flights, but you will have to be flexible about layovers. Also, look at Oakland and San Jose airports too, to expand your options. If the uncertainty of a last minute flight isn't for you, you may want to opt for a frequent-flyer program, if these still exist. As a frequent flyer, you will be booking flights on one airline and earning points with them that you can use in the future for free flights.

The train is the most expensive way to travel. The bus can really add up in cost. The airfare route, with a frequent flyer number and a credit card that awards you double frequent flyer awards is best. Southwest Air just announced an entire slew of flights at much lower costs. A number of airlines have run to match. Your best bet is to sign up with a site like Orbitz or Expedia, and research their lowest fare. Then, go to Southwest Airlines site and see what their pricing is. On SWA, if you book 30 days in advance, you can usually get a flight for as low as $39 one way. SWA does have flights in and out of SFO, but the hub is Oakland. Most folks in SF prefer Oakland as it is way more convenient. There are shuttles between the airports as well. Happy Trails!

About What is the best way to travel for San Francisco International Airport to San Jose

What is the best way to travel for San Francisco International Airport to San Jose?
I'm an international student and will be landing at SF International Airport and I would have a lot of luggage. I need to get around 'Infinite Loop' at San Jose from SF airport. Please also mention the time that would take me to reach there. San Francisco - 3 Answers

A pre-arranged shuttle or bus. http://www.flysfo.com/web/page/tofrom/transp-serv/prearr/

Here it is, Mapquest.com will tell you that. Type mapquest.com in any search block. It will give you all the info. Then select point to point driving direction, then finish the ask for info and will give you driving time and exact road to take, road condition and the distances. You will have choice of direct (fastest road or scenic road). ******************** You will need international driving permit or license and credit card and you have to be 25 years or older to rent a car here in USA, but there are few companies that will rent you a car at a very high age surcharge,if you are younger. ************* If you are not and experience driver then do not venture out in a car, take any public transportation (preferred) or even a cab(very expensive).

THE BEST way to get to San Jose from SFO: you could purchase a pre-owned but low mileage BMW M3 (so that the engine is already broken in) right after you land, especially if you bring enough cash with you for the purchase. I'm sure a Bimmer dealership would be willing to pick you up at the airport if you're doing this. Then take your new M3 up highway 92 and head south on Hwy 35 along the ridgetop (note this is not the most direct route, but it's a great drive in a BMW). Then take Hwy 9 down to Santa Cruz, where you can pick up Hwy 17 and head to San Jose.

About do you need a passport to travel from san francisco to san diego

do you need a passport to travel from san francisco to san diego?
I recently renewed my passport and its in the process of renewing and i havent gotten it back yet. i was wondering if i will need it to go to san diego next week from san francisco without it because im afraid they wont mail me the passport back in time. I have a california id card, would that be enough? San Diego - 6 Answers

Both San Franscisco and San Diego are in the US. As long as you don't plan on crossing the border into Mexico when you are in San Diego, you won't need a passport. No US citizen needs a passport to go from a US city to another US city.
2 :
You will only need a passport if you plan on taking the loooooooooooooong way to San Diego, like through Canada or Mexico.... :)
3 :
San Fran to SD isnt even crossing state borders. You only need a passport to cross international borders. When flying to different cities in the same state or country...a passport isnt necissary.
4 :
dont think so your still in the US.
5 :
as long as you remain within the us you do not need a passport.
6 :
Not unless you plan to visit both cities by detouring through a foreign country. Your government issued picture ID (drivers license for example) is just fine for getting onto any public transportation system (plane, train, car rental, bus, etc).

About best mode to travel from San Francisco, USA to Toronto, Canada

Best mode to travel from San Francisco, USA to Toronto, Canada?
Dear friends, I am traveling to San Francisco, USA for a month and planning to travel to Toronto for a week. What is the best (fun and cheap) way of traveling to and forth? I love traveling by train. Is there train connection between SF, USA and Toronto? If not, if air is only medium, how to get round the cheapest round trip ticket? regards, Neutya Toronto - 2 Answers

The problem is that if you don't fly, you will take up lots of your vacation time. The cheapest and most fun way is to find someone paying to have their car driven that general direction, and then train it the rest of the way. You can actually make money from going where you need to go, and the person with the car saves over having it shipped. If you fall in love with the bay area while you're there and decide you want to buy a house there, check out Taylor Morrison. They sell houses in the area and have a free $25,000 sweepstakes on their web site. http://is.gd/eDHX

fly to Buffallo,NY and take a greyhound bus to toronto. Just a 1.5 hour bus ride, better than the 4hr train.
