San Antonio's airport is only 8.5 miles from the downtown business district -- about a 15-minute drive -- which is unusual for a major metropolitan area. This means that once you land at the airport, you're just minutes from downtown and major resorts. And once you’re here, getting around is a snap thanks to our wide selection of transportation options, including the VIVA by VIA service, River Taxi, Cabs, Uber, and Lyft. If you have questions about how to get around, the Visitor Center is a good source of up-to-the-date information.
