Aloha. My Alaska flight lands at 9p terminal 1 and my SW flight departs 10:10p terminal 1. No checked bags. Can I make it? Do I need to go through security again?

I arrive into SAN at 845a on a Sunday. Taking Hawaiian at 1020a. If I check my luggage will i still have time to get to T2?

Will be arriving SAN via SWA connecting to Vancouver via AirCanada with wheelchair passenger.
Reverse a week later via Westport Air to SWA.

I am traveling with a group; most will be flying out of T2 and me out of T1.

I'd like for us all to be able to hang in the Airspace lounge (in T2) beforehand, but I wasn't sure if I would be able to get into that terminal, or whether I could then stay airside to get to my T1 gates.

Will it be possible for us to hang out together in T2 before the flights?

There is no airside connection between T1 and T2.

SW flt arrives 9 a.m. terminal 1 east, HI air flt departs 10 a.m. terminal 2 west. Will it be possible to get checked in & get through security at that hour on a weekday?

With no checked bags you have a chance, with checked bags there's no chance.

How far apart are the terminals to walk from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2?
Need to make a connecting flight from Southwest airlines to United airlines.

It's definitely walkable and of course the weather will almost definitely be great.
