Oakland and San Francisco International airports are the closest large airports to Santa Rosa.  If renting a car, both San Francisco and Oakland can accommodate you.  Oakland is a faster airport to get through and an easier drive to Santa Rosa.

If not renting a car, the Airport Express can take you from San Francisco International to downtown Santa Rosa where we will have a shuttle that can pick you up Wednesday.  We will also have a shuttle available to take you from the hotel on Sunday to the Airport Express drop off location.

If you want to get right to Santa Rosa by air, you can fly into STS Santa Rosa Airport.  Alaska Airlines is usually the best bet this way.  There are car rentals available here.  You will also be within 10 minutes of the hotel or a $20 cab ride.
