SFO

Waymo serves SFO, with restrictions

Access exists but is qualified — a reduced rider pool, one direction only, or a pickup point away from the terminals.

Waymo is offering SFO access to a limited number of riders. There is still no terminal curb service in the current operator instructions; the Grand Hyatt point is the shorter of the two AirTrain rides.

Full SFO record

Airport permission is granted airport by airport and changes without notice. Always confirm in the operator app before you land.

Permission is not the same as convenience

The question people search is “does Waymo serve SFO”. The answer that helps them is where it collects from — and at SFO that is the Rental Car Center, roughly a fifteen-minute AirTrain ride from the terminal you have just walked out of. Both facts are true. Only one of them changes what you do when you land.

Of the 13 airports tracked here, 4 have a published operator instruction. The rest are listed anyway, because knowing an operator runs across a whole metro but is not at its airport is exactly the sort of thing that ruins an arrival plan.

Every entry cites its source and the date it was read. Nothing here is inferred from a service-area map, and no route or coverage boundary is drawn, because no authoritative boundary data exists to draw one from.

Common questions

Why does “serves the airport” need a whole tool?: Because it is routinely the wrong answer to the question people are actually asking. An operator can be permitted at an airport and still collect you from a rental car centre reached by a fifteen-minute train ride, which is a very different proposition at midnight with luggage. The pickup point is the fact that matters, so it is the headline here rather than a footnote.
What does “not listed” mean — is it banned?: No. It means the airport does not appear in that operator’s own published airport instructions. It might be a permitting delay, a commercial decision, or simply an omission. It is not proof of a prohibition, but it is a strong reason not to plan a trip around it.
How current is this?: Every entry carries the date it was last checked against its source, shown beneath the operator. Airport permission changes without announcement, so treat an older date as a prompt to confirm in the app rather than as a guarantee.
Why are so few airports listed?: Because we only list airports where an operator has published something. A long list padded with airports nobody serves would look more useful and be less so.
