  1. Info for those saying “No direct service to the transit system?” Until very recently it was against Federal law to connect an airport to a major transit rail/subway/tram system directly. You had to do it this “two seat ride” way, or put the transit station off of airport property like in Seattle (and it’s a LONG walk to and from the station) or San Francisco (thankfully there’s a people mover that connects to it upstairs, but it’s a weird terminus stop for the BART (trains go in forwards, then have to reverse out.))
