Waymo
Waymo's airport page lists no San Diego airport.
Who hails: checked yesterday. How-to details checked 8 days ago, may be out of date. A ride is about 30 minutes, not a car for the day. A few hops inside the geofence can beat a rental day once parking and charging count. Many hops and the rental wins. Each app shows its price before you confirm. Waymo: Price shown in app. None of these are ours to promise.
A rental wins Julian, the coast towns, and any morning with a flight to catch.

Who hails was checked Oct 29 against the operators' own city lists; how-to details on Oct 22. Robotaxi facts age faster than the rest of the site: geofences grow, airports change their rules, and a free pilot starts charging. The operator app is ground truth · treat this page as the map, not the territory.
