The reflection room is probably this halls best kept secret. A quiet space with no mobile phones and no eating.

@SFOMuseum has awesome exhibits at all parts of the Mail Hall. You can find them before security on both the A and G sides, the back of the hall, and in between aisles.

From G gates you can walk to terminal 3 via walkway without passing security. Just enter the small alley near United Club lounge. Terminal 3 offers more shops and food choices.

Renting a car? Board the AirTrain at G gate side of the Intl Terminal (above BART) - saves you a full orbit around the airport.

Expert tip: 90% of the time the regular security line moves significantly faster than the "priority" line.

Check out the free wifi, it's not the fastest. But it will get out of those tight spots.

A Gates restaurants are terrible, but you can grab hummus at Cafe Amoura halfway through.

Peet's coffee was best thing I've found. Then wi fi. Don't expect to use your time shopping more than magazines. No last minute shopping.

Place has a dearth of food places and bars. Roam to T3 if you have time to kill.

Probably the worst security check staff I have encountered world over. Staff was being rude and obnoxious to many ppl; 'just doing my job' isn't an excuse.

En el Andalé (pasado seguridad) hay unos burritos increíbles, frijoles, arroz, bistec, enorme. No es comida mexicana pero esta buenísimo. Por 10 dólares nunca he quedado tan lleno en un aeropuerto.
