Shuttle options from SFO
Looking for ground transport one way from SFO to downtown as well. Read the horror reviews for SuperShuttle so decided to consider my options. Made a booking for BlueShuttle - hope it turns out well!

...Except when I can get a friend or relative to drive me for free!

I moved these posts to their own thread
If you like to add any information about shuttle services, such as blue shuttle, feel free. I've used blue shuttle a couple of times and they're quite good.

The problem with resurrecting a thread about SFO ground transportation from 4-5 years ago is that the ground transportation market at SFO has changed considerably in the past 4-5 years. Online ride services such as Uber and Lyft have completely changed the picture. Whereas 4-5 years ago I would have debated which of several shuttle companies is your best choice, today I consider them all poor choices. For me it's Uber every time now.

BART is not an option due to the hassle of luggage + infants + accessories.

With that many, a shuttle makes sense.
You can get an exclusive 7 passenger van from Supershuttle for $75. That might be your cheapest option.
You can reserve online.

That makes it very easy: hire a large enough shuttle to accommodate everyone and their luggage. Some shuttles might be too small for that, so you would want to clarify that you need 9 seats + luggage capacity.
