    There is a jamba juice at Gate 25. Firewood at gate 24 has breakfast sandwiches for $8 that look like McDonalds quality. No

    Nice small airport. Just be careful what entrance you go in. One section of it is entirely Southwest and you have to go back outside and walk down to the other airlines.

    At Oakland Airport the Economy Parking is the worst. They have terrible spacing between shuttles, two come together and then none for 20 minutes.

    Plan on taking the shuttle to get your rental car. It's seriously far away from the actual terminals.
