Located 30.50 km away from San Antonio International Airport, Lackland AFB is best known to be the sole location for U.S. Air Force enlisted Basic Military Training (BMT) for Regular Air Force, Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard. Lackland also allows civilian visitors upon presentation of basic ID documents.
If you are making your way to Lackland AFB from the San Antonio airport, you have 2 transportation options; you can take a taxi or the bus. Taking a San Antonio cab is the best way to travel as it is the only direct alternative and offers 24/7 door-to-door services, taking only 25 minutes to reach the base. For a more cost-savvy travel method, public buses are available; however, you will need to take three separate buses to reach your destination, taking you 1 hour and 50 minutes (excluding waiting time).
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to San Antonio at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
