    Once inside the airport, getting through from check-in to gate is not bad. Rental vehicles are off-site, and the rental shuttles are a good walk from the terminals.

    Free wifi, and what has been done to renovate their terminal is awesome. Wide open, clean, efficient w/ plenty of eating options too.

    Really nice airport here but it’s a long walk without moving sidewalks if you go in the wrong entrance for your airline.

    Lots of people with lots of first world problems. if you can afford to fly - you are better off than 95% of the world. The FREE wifi is slow when I am sitting in my massage chair.

    If you have $10, thirty minutes to spare, and no boyfriend, the massage chairs located throughout terminal B are a must.

    I think we’ve got a decent set of food options now.. Peet’s coffee, Mexican Grill, Smash burger etc., the charging ports under the seats aren’t working anymore

    If you're renting a car, Enterprise has the lowest rates. Rent for a day from the airport, switch to a rental at a non-airport location to get lower rates to avoid airport/tourism fees/taxes.

    This has to be the best airport in the US. It's super modern, spacious, and clean, which is a big fucking deal, LAX!

    Starbucks near Gate 13 so don't buy coffee outside!! And don't forget your sharpie keychain stuffs, very strict & no way to leave at airport/airline and claim it when you get back.

    Individual power outlets in the arm rests in the chairs facing the window! (Southwest Terminal). A 'Power' view :)

    Easy walk to the rental car garage and just about anywhere. Small and modern. Much less of a hassle than SFO.

    Always a ghost town. This airport is known for being one of the least utilized airports around. That makes it great to get in and out of!

    Best food (and choices) is in Terminal B. If you have the time, just walk down to the higher numbered gates and you're there!

    This is a quiet, not busy airport making flying in and out of San Jose very easy. Preferred airport for Bay Area.

    "Entertain us if you please, but please be gentle to the keys." I like the piano placed in the middle of the baggage claim and the people who play it.

    No more American Airlines Admiral's Club. The Club at SJC is the only lounge in the airport. It's really nice! $35/person to get in unless you have a Priority Pass, one of the perks of AmEx Platinum.

    Go to the lounge in terminal A near the intl gates. $35 gets you hot food items and drinks including alcohol. Not to mention, faster wifi, comfy seats and workstation desks.

    I can get my bags, laptop, liquids, shoes, and metal accessories into the gray TSA trays in under 20 seconds, and you can too. I believe in you.

    Lounge is okay. Decent variety of snacks and drinks and comfortable seating. Free Wi-Fi with no sign in required. No private spaces for phone calls, though.

    While you’re waiting for your flight, you can stay connected with AT&T Wi-Fi. It’s easy to connect and free for AT&T customers w/ certain smartphone or home broadband plans.

    There's no skyteam lounge and otherwise mediocre amenities at SJC. There's no reason to arrive early if you have TSA Pre and can clear security quickly.
