Sonoma travelers will clear security at home, then bus to their SFO gate
A "remote terminal" that skips SFO's security lines, with the fare and the catch.
Landline will start its first West Coast route on November 17, from Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County Airport to San Francisco International. Passengers check bags and clear security in Santa Rosa, then ride a coach that pulls up at Gate A3 in SFO's International Terminal, a trip of a little over two hours. There will be eight daily round trips; adult fares are $55 one way, children under 15 ride free, and rides do not earn airline loyalty points.

How much is substance, and how much is paid or hype?
The Points Guy is labeled affiliate. The route, fares and gate come from Landline's announcement; the service starts November 17, so how well the two-hour bus ride and its timing work for connections is untested.
