About Fly or Drive to Oakland from Orange County

Fly or Drive to Oakland from Orange County?
I have to attend training in Oakland for five days. Wondering if I should take my car up there so I'll be able to take in the city sights and have something to do after my training sessions. How is the drive from Orange County to Oakland? Is it safe and easy? I'm a female and will most likely have to travel alone up to Oakland. Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks! Oh, and I hate flying!!!! It makes me so nervous and I dread the thought of it.

Answer 1 :
It's a long, boring drive. I suggest you fly and then rent a car when you want to see the sights; or you could try City Car Share: http://www.citycarshare.org/
Answer 2 :
If you drive, it's probably a six hour drive, mostly on I-5. That freeway is heavily patrolled, which can be good for single women, but bad for speeding. And after the sessions you are much better off in San Francisco than Oakland. You might want to consider coming back on 101. 2-3 hours longer, but a much more enjoyable drive. Especially around Pismo Beach, and in the Santa Barbara-Ventura stretch.
Answer 3 :
Well if you hate driving, then fly... Flights should be cheap now that its not the travel season.
Answer 4 :
You have two choices, the I-5 or the 101. I-5 is the faster route taking around 6 hours as well as being safer due to more patrol, but the drive is boring. You're seeing nothing but farmland, hills, truck stops and basically monotonous scenery for most of the drive there. Taking the 101 will take you an extra hour or two depending on the traffic and how many stops you decide to take. There are several nice towns and cities along the Central Coast you will pass along the way including Santa Barbara, Solvang, San Luis Obispo and a few beaches. You'll have lots to do along the way that you might want to consider spending the day at one or several of these places. So in the end it's your choice between a shorter drive vs a more interesting one.
Answer 5 :
I would fly. The drive is long and boring. There isn't much to see in Oakland, so you will probably want to go to San Francisco, in which case you can take the BART to the city and then use the local subway and buses to get around. Parking in San Francisco is a pain, and even if you had a car I'd suggest you leave it outside and use transit.

Answer 1 :
Given the timing being last minute you would put more money into booking your flight through a travel agency than over the internet. Try looking up online any airline deals from Atlanta to SF, Oakland, or San Jose. For cheapest look into Southwest, they usually have a pretty good deal. Also see if Delta (its hub is Atlanta) has any available flights... they'll probably be your best bet (availability wise) due to the number of fleets they have in Atlanta.
Answer 2 :
Do your research online and find the best deal and then call a travel agent and ask them if they can match or beat it. Sometimes a travel agent can find a better rate and sometimes not. If they can't beat the rate all you have lost is a phone call. Good luck

Answer 2 :
A weekend in Las Vegas is a good option as well. Excellent restuarants, entertainment, and setting (as long as you steer clear of the 'family hotels' like Excalibur and Circus Circus). Mandalay Bay, Bellagio, Venetian, and Wynn are some of the more classy resorts. And it's only a one hour flight from San Francisco

Aren't Los Angeles, Oakland and Orange county pretty much the same place, travel-wise?

Polls & Surveys - 4 Answers
People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
Answer 1 :
No, Oakland is in northern California
Answer 2 :
Orange county is for love, but the other two are for movies and shootings.
Answer 3 :
Not really. Los Angeles is downtown, Japantown, Chinatown and of course Hollywood. Orange County is a suburb of LA and though is less touristic, although it has Disney World and some beaches. Oakland, unlike LA and Orange, is in Northern California. A magnificent ghetto and wasteland that should be avoided by any decent tourists that care about their lives. Plus its downtown is totally lame.
Answer 4 :
No, not at all. Saying that is like saying Salt Lake City, Saint George, and Utah County is the same place to travel... Los Angeles County is One of the counties of Southern California, and don't confused the City and the County Los Angeles both. These are the cities of the Los Angeles County: http://california.hometownlocator.com/ca/los-angeles/ Orange County, is Another of the counties of Southern California, and these are its cities: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cities_in_Orange_County,_California Now... Oakland is Only a City, and far away from the other counties. Oakland is part of the Alameda County, in the middle section of California: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oakland,_California These are the cities of the Alameda County, in which Oakland City is located at: http://california.hometownlocator.com/ca/alameda/ And, finally, these are the locations and names of the different Counties of the State of California, "Notice the 'LA' as in Los Angeles County, 'OR' just below it as in Orange County, and in the Middle Section of the map, the "AM" as in Alameda County, where Oakland City is located at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_counties_in_California

About Would it be a good idea to stay at a hotel in Oakand, and travel every day to San Francisco

Would it be a good idea to stay at a hotel in Oakand, and travel every day to San Francisco?
I am going on vacation to San Francisco (by airplane) and I have found some low priced hotels close to the Oakland airport. But I dont know if it is worth it to stay in Oakland and then travel everyday to SF using the public transportation system.
San Francisco - 6 Answers
People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
Answer 1 :
You'd save some money by staying in a cheaper hotel and using public transportation. You wouldn't pay the parking fees in the city, and wouldn't have the traffic hassles. Just be sure you have easy access to the transportation.
Answer 2 :
Staying in Oakland is definitely feasible. In terms of distances, San Francisco and Oakland = Manhattan and one of the neighboring boroughs. They're right next to each other. However, you need to make sure you'll have easy access to Downtown San Francisco. That means you'll either need to stay near a BART station (preferably Lake Merritt, 12th Street, or Rockridge...which are the safest stations in Oakland)... or the Jack London Square area (which has ferry service). http://www.sfcityscape.com/maps/bay_area_rail.html http://www.bart.gov/index.asp http://www.eastbayferry.com/ Some AC Transit buses serve Downtown San Francisco, but they're much more difficult to figure out, both in terms of finding the right bus stop and scheduling issues. http://www.actransit.org/riderinfo/sanfrancisco.wu
Answer 3 :
no thers lot's of traffic.
Answer 4 :
If you are only going to be visiting San Francisco I would advise that you stay in San Francisco. You can walk, take taxis, or buses all over the city. Being in Oakland and having to travel to San Francisco would take anywhere from an hour to 2 hours out of your day travelling. I know when I am on vacation every hour matters so why waste it having to travel back and forth? Also if you go out at night in the city you would not have to worry about making it back to Oakland. The money and time you would spend on public transportation would be better spent on the hotel in San Francisco. I would much rather wake up at my destination rather than have to travel to it everyday and I'm sure you would too.
Answer 5 :
I would stay in Pacifica 15 minutes south of San Francisco at a cool little hotel at Rockaway beach for a pretty good price. It's right on the beach. If you want the number you can email me. Pacifica is A LOT nicer than Oakland not mention safer!!!!!! :)
Answer 6 :
You want to go back to Oakland , at NIGHT, on Bart, or AC. transit? Are you nuts? Why do you think those hotels are cheep? I'm an Oakland native and I wouldn't want to take that ride every night! Berkeley-Albany or Emeryville are much better ideas

This is a perfect chance for me to rant on our government as a True American I have to say that something is wrong when first the government of America would charge as a duty to have the Passport people collect Past child support and Two that anyone other than a Nazi or a Communist would require a passport to travel inside the USA. Mark my words hear some assh*** will try to pass this one and if you don;t see the problem with this then go back to school and take a class on it

Before you go for a tour or a travel you need to plan something. Visit online website to know more about the place the people, hotels, their cost and get a brief idea about the place. Try to be prepare before hand also get some knowledge about the laws and rules of that place. To know more you can visit http://www.besttravelguide.blogspot.com

The airline/airport needs to verify that the ticket belongs to you so you can pass through their security and board the airplane. This is normally done with your state ID but you can use your passport if you have one
