Flying to/from Camp
We also recognize and are proud of the geographic diversity of our camp community. For those who will be flying to camp from out of the area, we have listed suggested flights in our arrival window of 9:00 am-12:00 pm into San Jose airport (SJC). We have also suggested flights from SJC during our departure window from SJC of 1:00 pm-4:00 pm on the final day of each session. We ask that you only book flights within this travel window to guarantee that our staff can provide transportation for your camper(s) to and from camp. If you cannot find a flight to/from SJC during our travel window, we kindly ask that you email Branden Johnson at branden@ramahnorcal.org to coordinate alternative transportation plans.
All flights arriving within our travel window (9:00 am to 12:00 pm) are met by Ramah staff at the gates. Ramah staff will then escort arriving campers to baggage claim. Also, all departing flights within our travel window (1:00 pm to 4:00 pm) will have Ramah staff escorting campers through security to their gates.
Ramah staff may not be able to assist campers at the airport who are traveling on flights outside these windows and parents will need to make other arrangements for transportation to/from camp.
Unaccompanied Minors:
Any young camper who will be flying as an official “unaccompanied minor”, for which their family is paying the airline an additional fee, must notify us prior to booking. Flight times must still be within the time windows shown above.
Should anything change at the last minute with regards to flight arrivals/departures, we will contact camp families directly via phone and or email.
