    You'll get a good dose of cardio when walking from your gate after landing to baggage claim!

    Grab a bloody mary before you jump on your flight. It's the only way to fly.

    The main advantage of this airport is that there's no lines compared to SFO

    Don't second guess Sushi Boat. It's good sushi (in spite of its airport location).

    Don't fly here. The men's room south of gate 25 always smells of piss and is frequently closed. Seen multiple visits over years. It's like they can't be bothered.

    Don't be a dick. Don't put your purses and jackets in the overhead compartment. Be curtious.

    Don't eat at the Gordon Biersch in the terminal. Gave me wrong sandwich and then gave it to a guy down the bar AFTER I ate two home fries and touched the sandwich. Bfast sandwich almost inedible.

    It's a place where airplanes land and take off. Also, the US Airway app sucks, don't even bother trying.

    Be aware this place looks like the set of a sitcom, and has the the background music to match!

    Careful with the USB charging ports. Many are filled with gunk and food and often do not work.

    Flying often for business can be a burden.  But not @ SJC.  This airport is hardly ever crowded.  It's seriously the easiest flight from or to San Jose.

    It's one long hallway with no shortcuts, so be sure to leave enough time to get from one end to the other if you're making a connection.

    They've really improved this airport in the past few years... Facilities are now top-notch for a mid-sized airport.

    Look for one of the power seats with 3-prong plugs and a USB port.

    Overrated airport if you ask me. No TSA PreCheck, few shops, no lounge, long walks. Food options are okay though, and this is probably easier for the casual, infrequent flier.

    I love the "executive seats" with power plugs for laptops. I think only Southwest offers them.

    If we all have designated positions in line, I'm not sure why anyone is standing in line when the plane hasn't even arrived yet.
