Transit Pass Options
Three of us are flying into SFO tomorrow (Saturday) morning and want to take BART to our hotel at Montgomery, drop off our bags and immediately take BART to the A's game.
After the game, we will just take BART back to our hotel.
Are there day/weekend passes for BART or what is the best way to handle this weekend trip. We will be flying back on Monday night and will probably take BART again.
Are we better off taking a cab to the hotel?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

you can buy a Clipper Card at the Airport
Clipper cards store value.
but if it's just for one day you can buy a BART ticket. There's no discounts, it's all cash value.
BART to the hotel is $8+ each, cab is about $30-$35 so you're not saving much each. However BART to the game and back is the only way to go. You can buy R/T tickets at any BART station.
