    Spirit airlines is rude and always delayed. Save yourself the trouble and don't fly spirit.

    Starbucks by gate 9 is awful. Latte tastes like milk with a splash of espresso.

    If you're having your kid (below 12) fly alone, make sure Southwest only charges you the unaccompanied minor fee ONCE. It's none refundable if they do charge you twice.

    even when the security line is 100 deep, it moves faster than you would think.

    If you plan on taking the BART consider 45 minutes of traveling and you have to take it before 10:30

    If you're flying in/out of SFO, you're at the wrong airport. Oops.

    AirBART is overpriced, and you have to pay another fare at the real BART later.

    A good alternative to SFO for direct flights to London Gatwick. Offered by both British And Norwegian Airways.

    Their car rental shuttle is poorly run. I've never seen a shuttle service so unorganized until now.

    Very poor effort to recycle trash. Found just one bin to recycle cans and that too miles away from restaurants. *Thumbs down* Oakland!

    The staff at the security are rude and unhelpful. Go to SFO or SJC instead.
