Don't book an AA code share with Alaska and expect to go standby. Even as AAPlat or explat.

Get there early and enjoy the new facilities.

Camden Food Co seems to be the best terminal 2 breakfast option

International arrivals come in between Terminal 1 & 2. You can easily walk to either one, depending on where you need to be.

To all the d-bags that seem to think you have to practically stand on the baggage claim belt - its ok to stand behind the line black line and NOT stand right in front of a person waiting on their bag.

..if you are in Terminal A & have Gates 1-2 Southwest, don't rush through security. Once pass security, area is small & crowded.
Kathryn GessnerJuly 27, 2013
Under construction but user friendly. Follow the signs and shuttles are on time and speedy.

A variety of food sources, but limited choices for vegans and vegetarians.

If checking in on United Airlines, try to check in with Joanna or Naomi. They're the best!
Linda GarlandMay 10, 2013
Nice outlets for recharging devices, but crowded and confining with the circle terminal and no where else to wander.
Dwayne KilbourneSeptember 20, 2011
Great airport... even if you are going to USMC boot camp and sitting at the USO!

Terminal one has very limited seating options. As someone that likes to work when at the airport it's a bit frustrating

Get here early enough to politely opt of of the full body scan. There's still an opportunity to break this system.

The Alaskan Airlines terminal is the most insanely crowded terminal I have ever been in!
Eric RossNovember 27, 2010
The United/Southwest terminal doesn't have a great shopping selection. Make sure you buy your magazines & other things before you go through security.
Zach Solomon-BeloinFebruary 25, 2015
This airport has minimal restaurants and things to do while waiting for your flight

They close the TSA pre line a lot here but terminal 2 has a Phil's BBQ!

If you're parking offsite use Wally Park! They are super friendly and very affordable.

FYI no Starbucks inside security for Terminal 1 Gates 1&2 area... Get your fix before going in!
Todd MillerJuly 15, 2014
Some connecting flights require you to exit and re-enter security. Be prepared for the delay.

Security theater is a participatory activity. Remember to play along.

Make sure to eat before going through security when leaving from gates 1&2

If you need to charge your phone, look for one of the seats with blue LED-backlight power hubs. #nerdalert

Small and functional. Luggage comes always so fast
Andrew ConleyMay 22, 2010
BUY THE EXPRESS TICKETS! They cost a little more.. but it helps! You get to go through the FAST security lane..It saved me a lot of time!

Now long termparking shuttles won't let you off curbside. You have to skybridge it! Call or write SAN and complain....for now allow time to get there.

Terminal two is absolutely fantastic, terminal one leaves quite a bit to be desired.
Joelle CookNovember 21, 2013
Premier access security moved slower than the reg lines. When I mentioned it, they blamed the airlines... Wow.
Daniel JamesNovember 11, 2014
Convenient and use uber! Super fast and cheap

Visit the new Pannikin in terminal 2 for food and coffee.

If you're flying US Airways you're SOL at the AA Admiral's Club and Delta Sky Club with AMEX Plat & Centurion...
Chad HyamsAugust 29, 2013
Flying SW and leaving from gate 1 or 2? Stop and get stuff before going through security. Not much after.

Not much to it, but easy to get around and fairly quick and painless with TSA-Pre.
Lori Rainey DowningJune 24, 2013

The terminal construction has many of the food spots closed so unless you want California Pizza Kitchen bring your own food.
Mike F.August 31, 2011
