I've only flown in and out of this airport once..and I am a fan..

The airport is big enough so there's plenty of room for numerous gates for enough flights in and out of San Jose. However, it's not so big where gates are separated by buildings and you have to get there by a railed tram or long walks. The tall glass ceilings allow light to naturally come in and make for an attractive airport.

There's pretty good dining options lined up at Mineta should you need to grab a bite. The TSA Pre-check line is efficient and gets you through quickly. They had two Pre-check stations operating when I went through at 7 PM. There's a cool rotating airplane influenced art piece right outside the security check. It's a social media moment for sure.

This is the best airport to rent a car from. The rental car area is literally across the street. After less than a 10 minute walk, you're in the rental car building lobby. Fantastic.

Overall, Mineta San Jose Airport is a well designed medium sized airport. I don't fly here often, but I would have no issues flying to Mineta when need be. Safe Travels!
