Operator History

• San Mateo Burlingame Transit Company had the very first SFO terminal shuttle bus contract. The buses used for the service were required to match San Francisco MUNI's livery per contract. They operated the shuttle until the company shut down in November 1969.
• SFO Airporter Inc. (Jeff Lenodakis & family) acquired the contract to run the SFO terminal shuttles starting by the early 1970's. Later a separate company, San Francisco Parking Inc. DBA SFO Shuttle Bus Company was formed by Lenodakis to run the SFO terminal shuttles and later the rental car facility (RAC) shuttles. They continued to operate the shuttle into the mid-2010's.
• LOOP Transportation, owner of SFO Hotel Shuttle Inc. acquired the shuttle bus contract.
• Hallcon Corporation acquired LOOP Transportation/SFO Hotel Shuttle Inc. in July 2015.
