SJC Gate Connections DISCUSSION

RMH 05/28/2019
We have 5 hours between flights. What might be available to us during that time from 14:35 to 20:10?

Where do you check in and where is the gate? Is it best to go through Terminal A?
OneSeaSun4Fun 05/12/2018
If you fly into Terminal A can you go to Terminal B without going through TSA again?
Mondo 12/18/2018
Yes, just walk along the (almost) infinitely long concourse past the gates (don't turn out to baggage claim). The gates are numbered consecutively from 1 to 26(?), and you can look on an airport map to see roughly how long your walk will be.
Note that they cheaped out on the air conditioning and don't have any slidewalks or visible shuttle carts, so you might need to ask about transport arrangements if you don't want to walk a mile.

Is there a presecurity walkway between terminal a baggage claim and terminal b check in? What's the best way to get to the check in counter at terminal b after retrieving checked in luggage at terminal a?
Cathy 11/04/2017
My plane leaves at 6:20. I can bring my car back early before the car rental is open. But how do I get to terminal A ?

Which terminal to pick up air Canada passengers?

Will I have to go through security when changing terminals at SJC
Will 20-40min be enough time to recheck bags & Change terminals at 9pm at night?
ZAP 06/06/2016
The two terminals are connected by a walkway inside security but if you have to claim and re-check bags you will have to exit security to do that. With checked bags I think you definitely don't have enough time to do this.
SK 10/13/2016
how long is the walk between terminals
LL 06/01/2017
The walk isn't the shortest, but at a brisk walk you can walk across each terminal in around 10-12 minutes, so 20-24 to get from gate 1 at one end of Terminal A all the way to the highest gate in Terminal B.

While food & drink at Mineta's Terminal A is presently limited to passengers only, those who yearn for fresh ingredients in their sandwich or salad, and get it quickly, may want to consider Fresh Attractions at the connector to gates 1-8 and 14. Starbucks is at gate 12/13.

The new Terminal B at Mineta Airport is impressive, but prepare yourself for a long walk after security check to the gates.

Went through SJC's Terminal B and found restaurants and shops are available everywhere!
