Main Terminal / Concourses at San Jose Mineta SJC Airport
The passenger terminal complex at Mineta Airport consists of Terminal A and the new Terminal B, served by a free shuttle arriving every 10-15 minutes, 24/7, and making a continous loop between the terminals and the parking lots (starting with Terminal A).
The two-level Terminal A of Mineta San Jose Airport has been given an upgrade by expanding the security checkpoint to 8 lanes (and 4 more to come), and adding new shops and restaurants, and new street-level ticketing lobbies.
The first level houses the baggage claim area, international arrivals with US Customs and ticket counters, while the second level houses the security checkpoint and access to the gates.
Present amenities & services at Terminal A include: Ticket counters 1-8 for United, US Airways, Volaris, Continental, American/ American Eagle, Hawaiian & JetBlue. (Gates 15 & 16 are for International Arrivals); three baggage carousels at pre-security; one of which is for international flights; food & drink establishments and shops are at post-security. The informaton both is near the entrance, with close-by currency exchange, parking pay station, FedEx and hotel information points. The Meeter & Greeter area is in the center of level two. ATM machines are located in the areas of gates 15-16, 12-14, 9-11 & 1-8. For first aid, call 111 from a white courtesy phone or 911 from a standard phone.
Terminal B of Mineta San Jose Airport: The spectacular Terminal B opened officially on June 30, 2010 (replacing dismantled Terminal C). It displays a futuristic design, offers plenty of daylight, art, shared-use ticket counters & gates, and chairs with power cords & USB ports on their armrests for charging laptops & handhelds.
Level 1 houses the baggage claim and ticket counters, while Level 2 houses the security checkpoint leading to the gate areas.
While plans call for two concourses - the North and the South Concourse - only the North Concourse has so far been built with 12 gates (17 to 28) used by Southwest as the primary tenant, along with Alaska, Horizon & Delta airlines. (It is planned to build the South Concourse once traffic levels justify such expansion.)
Terminal B has already received the LEED Silver certification for environmentally sustainable design & construction, and is the first terminal west of the Mississipi to be receiving such award.
Present amenities & services at Terminal B include: Ticket counters 1-4 for Southwest, Alask Horizon& Delta; three baggage carousels; 15 food & drink establishments (only Starbucks is at pre-security), 9 shops (the San Jose Marketplace is at pre-security); Information booth, hotel board, postal services, lost & Found; one ATM machine in in pre-security and another two ATMs are in post-security; for first aid, call 111 from a white courtesy phone or 911 from a standard phone.
The USO facility is now at street level of Airport Blvd, beween Terminals A & B (tel. 408-288/7603; fax 7621), not accessible from inside the terminals.
