Can someone post exterior and/or interior pictures of Terminal A and C? Construction pictures of the North Concourse would be good also. -- Will74205 05:53, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
Can someone post exterior pictures of Terminal B and the North Concourse? We already have one picture of Terminal B now, but we still need more. Also since the ConRAC parking and rental car facility is almost finished it looks pretty cool now. Can someone also post pictures of the ConRAC parking garage and rental car facility. The Hands mural is almost done and looks cool, so I thought someone should post pictures of it. - Jmumman 17:36, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

What is the history of SJC and 747s? That is how often have they landed there? and under what circumstances? Why don't the land there more often? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.254.97.10 ( talk) 17:11, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
I see on the revision history that there seems to be disagreement over which gates are remaining and which were removed at Terminal C for the Terminal B construction. Let me point out the updated map of SJC Terminal C shows the terminal now has gates C1 to C14. Whoever keeps saying that C12, C13 and C14 have been demolished, please wait until that happens. Yes, eventually all of the current Terminal C (the original San Jose Municipal Airport terminal) will be demolished. But let's keep an accurate pace with it.

I've been looking at San Francisco International Airport's Wikipedia page and comparing it to Mineta San Jose International Airport's Wikipedia page. I noticed that right next to the destinations on SFO's page it has the terminals locations instead of the seperate airport dest lists. I propose that we make one huge dest list with all of the airlines, destinations and terminals. If you don't what I'm saying look at the examples below.

On some other airports' it has destinations for cargo airlines. If you look at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, they have a dest list for cargo airlines. I propose we make another airport dest list for cargo airlines. Other airports that have dest lists for cargo that I know of are Narita International Airport and Delhi International Airport. I know that very few airports have this, but we should make a dest list for cargo airlines too. New proposed dest list(example)
FedEx Express| Memphis, Indianapolis
UPS| Louisville, Ontario
Air Transport International| Toledo, Sacramento, Chicago/Rockford - Jmumman(Talk)
Ok so, no cargo airport dest list. - Jmumman(Talk)
I went to Mineta San Jose Int'l Airport yesterday, and I saw that there were flights coming from Tucson, and Colombus. I was looking at the arriving flights and it said that both flights from Colombus and Tucson were operated by Southwest Airlines. Were those flights charters? On FlightAware it didn't say anything about those flights, I don't know if those flights were charters. Can someone please go to Mineta San Jose International Airport's Terminal A, and look at the screen where it has arriving and departing flights and see if those flights exist?
I think we should make a section called Former Hub For... on the article. Considering that SJC was a former hub for American Airlines and Reno Air, I think people who read SJC's article should know that. I propose a section called Former Hub For... Here's is probably what it would like(example)

Alaska Airlines has just recently announced San Jose-San José del Cabo. Alaska Airlines is in Terminal B at SJC, but since the flight is going to be international won't the flight have to go in Terminal A's International Arrivals? -- Jmumman ( talk) 18:48, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
I've found this page has information about SJC's busiest routes, on-time percentages, etc. We should use this info in some way. I don't know how we should use this info, but here's the link, Click here -- Jmumman ( talk) 02:51, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
I see in the text "In November 2001, the airport was renamed after Norman Yoshio Mineta, who is a native of San Jose, its former mayor and congressman, former United States Secretary of Commerce and former United States Secretary of Transportation. In December 2003, the airfield was named after former mayor Ernie Renzel.[13]"
In the article about Renzel, the date stated is 2004. In fact, the sentence in the article explains the distinction better...

The bit under incidents about AirCal 336 cleared for rwy 19R, landing on 19R, etc. can't be correct - SJC has no 19R. Was there ever a 19R at SJC? I doubt it - SJC is surrounded by highways and railways. Titaniumlegs ( talk) 08:01, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
in Sept 2009 the runway 11/29 was announced to be temporarily closed for 90 days; and then subsequently was never re-opened, instead the closure was continued until finally the runway was permanently closed and incorporated in a new widened taxiway W on the west-side of runway 30L.
This closure was effectively closing the only general aviation runway in San Jose. Thetilo ( talk) 03:03, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
At some point, the homes in the area between hwy 87, hwy 880 and Coleman Road were all moved out because of overhead air traffic. I am curious when this happened. I'm sure there is a story there. Kortoso ( talk) 00:29, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

There is major construction going on on the west (general aviation) side of the airport. See this article - http://www.flysanjose.com/fl/about/newsroom/2013_releases/WestSide.htm. Somebody should update this article to mention it. Cloudswrest ( talk) 18:01, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

San Jose International Airport → San José International Airport – Ten years ago this airport article was denied its accent, which seems really strange to those of us who live near it and don't like to hear it pronounced San Joes. As for the Mineta part, on the other hand, still nobody uses that. Dicklyon ( talk) 21:15, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
@
Jenks24: Re: "Is this not the airport for
San Jose, California? Why use the accent here and not there?"
– See what I just wrote above; the city article was unilaterally de-accented, despite the fact that there's proof the city government itself uses the accent mark quite often (mostly just not when it's in ALL CAPS; there are two discussions of this stuff in archive 2 of its talk page, including some guy saying, basically, "well, I just removed all the accent marks, so there" without any consensus for it. —

We can get started now. I'm not an expert on Romance languages, but it would not surprise me if the name "San Jose" exists in one of them (or a language influenced by one of them) without the accent; so there may thus be other places named San Jose that should actually be spelled that way, not as "San José". Checked so far: Portuguese has São José, Galician has Xosé; Catalan Josep, Occitan Josèp, Aragonese Yuçuf, Astur-Leonese José [also Joseph historically, and Xosé is attested, too]; Spanish-influenced: Cebuano José, Guarani Hose, Basque Josef. The only "Jose" I can find are in native/creole Philippine and nearby languages that picked it up from Spanish without the diacritic, including Tagalog/Filipino, Ilocano, Chavacano, Bikol, Pampanga, Pangasinan, and Waray, and nearby Indonesian. So, the "San Jose" places in the Philippines should be spelled that way, without the diacritic. This is borne out by looking inter-wiki at the corresponding articles for these places in the Wikipedias in those languages; none of them use the diacritic for the Philippine places. I see from the disambiguation page San José that pretty much all entries on the page use the "San José" spelling, except the Philippine entries, and a handful of American ones. "Jose" is wrong for both California and Arizona (at least it's correctly given as "José" for Texas and Puerto Rico, and for Mission San José, California). Arguably the "San Jose" spelling is correct for Illinois, which never had a Spanish colonial presence (and San Jose, Illinois appears to not have been a Hispanic settlement; despite an approx. 15% Hispanic population in the state, less than 1% of the town's population identify as Hispanic). — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 07:17, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

San José International Airport →
San Jose International Airport – Consistency with the city itself,
San Jose, California. We were assured last discussion that it didn't matter which moved first because obviously all San Jose-related articles would soon be moved soon, such was the strength of the argument in favour of adding the diacritic. However, that
didn't
happen. This article now sticks out like a sore thumb, just browse through the subcats of
Category:San Jose, California.

I believe it is premature to mark this route as being discontinued based on the dubious and threadbare content in the reference that is being used for it. The reference has no comment from either Air China or the airport and appears to consist entirely of a quick analysis of changes in OAG or the airline's reservation system. Both OAG and the booking system are likely to change for many reasons at random and I don't believe it should be taken by itself as an indication of whether or not the route is suspended or cancelled. This is a very high-profile route for San Jose airport, so something as important as a Chinese airline pulling out would undoubtedly be reported by a more reliable and reputable source than some random blog. No one in any official capacity to comment on the status of this route is quoted. I propose we leave things as they were prior to KLM's edit until we have a better source for any changes to the route. -- Resplendent ( talk) 23:09, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
Just to help other editors recognize this, we seem to have a vandal who has been changing, among other recurring erroneous edits, the infobox "operator" field to read variations of San Jose Airport Commission or sometimes San Jose Airport Authority. It isn't clear why the anonymous editor has a fixation on this. Based on the other false edits from the anonymous IP, it's probably just meant to look plausible to delay getting reverted. The correct value for the "operator" field is to leave it blank because the owner (City of San Jose) is also the operator. The San Jose Airport Commission is a panel of advisors appointed by the City Council but with no actual authority. The City Council has authority at SJC. This incorrect edit caught my attention because I have served on the San Jose Airport Commission before. (If that's something that interests you, they accept applications from San Jose residents whenever there are openings.) You can verify it yourself at the city's "Airport Commission" page.

Hey everyone! Check out the new domestic destinations. The period from November 2018-October 2019 came out today — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.182.194 ( talk) 18:28, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
Hey everyone, it seems that a user has been engaging in an edit war on this article page (Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport), as well as the Delta Air Lines page regarding the status of SJC as a Delta focus city. The consensus from airline editors is that the airport is not a Delta focus city as of early 2020, and we've addressed this previously on the Delta Air Lines talk page and hidden text. Recently, the aforementioned editor has repeatedly added edits with poor spelling and sourcing, and despite being warned with no penalty, he/she engages in re-adding the deleted edits over and over again. This user seems to have a history of doing such actions to other pages, and has not responded to prior conversations on their user talk page as well. We ask for assistance in this regard to ensure the "no original research policy", as well as Wikipedia admins to escalate this case. Thank you. Theoldkinderhook ( talk) 09:23, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
So at this point there has been no announcement for when the routes I removed will be launched or resumed (or that they have permanently been discontinued). While airline websites seem to be our only source right now for a lot of this information instead of a more reputable news article, I think we need to set some kind of barometer for when they should be removed/re-added instead of just "it shows up as available on a booking engine/airline website for some date in the future."
Granted, this would mean anything not actively flying right now could be potentially removed, but there has to be a middle ground between "needs a news article citation" and "is or isn't available to book on an airline's website". -- Resplendent ( talk) 20:19, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
During the pandemic SJC lost the position it briefly held (in 2018 and 2019) as the second busiest airport in the Bay Area, seeing fewer passengers than OAK in both 2020 and 2021 (and also most years before 2018). In 2021 SJC saw 7,357,441 passengers, OAK saw 8,142,320 passengers, and SFO saw 24,343,627. This means the article should be updated to reflect that SJC is the third busiest airport in the Bay Area, probably with a note that SJC and OAK have jockeyed for the position in recent years. I'll make the update this weekend unless someone has a good reason we should leave as is. If it had historically been the second busiest airport I could see leaving it for now considering the pandemic, but it has not been and OAK saw a more rapid increase in passenger traffic by % growth than either SJC or SFO in 2021. -- Cowboywizard ( talk) 23:35, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

San Jose International Airport → San José International Airport – Ten years ago this airport article was denied its accent, which seems really strange to those of us who live near it and don't like to hear it pronounced San Joes. As for the Mineta part, on the other hand, still nobody uses that. Dicklyon ( talk) 21:15, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Jenks24: Re: "Is this not the airport for
San Jose, California? Why use the accent here and not there?"
– See what I just wrote above; the city article was unilaterally de-accented, despite the fact that there's proof the city government itself uses the accent mark quite often (mostly just not when it's in ALL CAPS; there are two discussions of this stuff in archive 2 of its talk page, including some guy saying, basically, "well, I just removed all the accent marks, so there" without any consensus for it. —

We can get started now. I'm not an expert on Romance languages, but it would not surprise me if the name "San Jose" exists in one of them (or a language influenced by one of them) without the accent; so there may thus be other places named San Jose that should actually be spelled that way, not as "San José". Checked so far: Portuguese has São José, Galician has Xosé; Catalan Josep, Occitan Josèp, Aragonese Yuçuf, Astur-Leonese José [also Joseph historically, and Xosé is attested, too]; Spanish-influenced: Cebuano José, Guarani Hose, Basque Josef. The only "Jose" I can find are in native/creole Philippine and nearby languages that picked it up from Spanish without the diacritic, including Tagalog/Filipino, Ilocano, Chavacano, Bikol, Pampanga, Pangasinan, and Waray, and nearby Indonesian. So, the "San Jose" places in the Philippines should be spelled that way, without the diacritic. This is borne out by looking inter-wiki at the corresponding articles for these places in the Wikipedias in those languages; none of them use the diacritic for the Philippine places. I see from the disambiguation page San José that pretty much all entries on the page use the "San José" spelling, except the Philippine entries, and a handful of American ones. "Jose" is wrong for both California and Arizona (at least it's correctly given as "José" for Texas and Puerto Rico, and for Mission San José, California). Arguably the "San Jose" spelling is correct for Illinois, which never had a Spanish colonial presence (and San Jose, Illinois appears to not have been a Hispanic settlement; despite an approx. 15% Hispanic population in the state, less than 1% of the town's population identify as Hispanic). — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 07:17, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved — Amakuru ( talk) 11:36, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
San José International Airport →
San Jose International Airport – Consistency with the city itself,
San Jose, California. We were assured last discussion that it didn't matter which moved first because obviously all San Jose-related articles would soon be moved soon, such was the strength of the argument in favour of adding the diacritic. However, that
didn't
happen. This article now sticks out like a sore thumb, just browse through the subcats of
Category:San Jose, California.

I believe it is premature to mark this route as being discontinued based on the dubious and threadbare content in the reference that is being used for it. The reference has no comment from either Air China or the airport and appears to consist entirely of a quick analysis of changes in OAG or the airline's reservation system. Both OAG and the booking system are likely to change for many reasons at random and I don't believe it should be taken by itself as an indication of whether or not the route is suspended or cancelled. This is a very high-profile route for San Jose airport, so something as important as a Chinese airline pulling out would undoubtedly be reported by a more reliable and reputable source than some random blog. No one in any official capacity to comment on the status of this route is quoted. I propose we leave things as they were prior to KLM's edit until we have a better source for any changes to the route. -- Resplendent ( talk) 23:09, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
Just to help other editors recognize this, we seem to have a vandal who has been changing, among other recurring erroneous edits, the infobox "operator" field to read variations of San Jose Airport Commission or sometimes San Jose Airport Authority. It isn't clear why the anonymous editor has a fixation on this. Based on the other false edits from the anonymous IP, it's probably just meant to look plausible to delay getting reverted. The correct value for the "operator" field is to leave it blank because the owner (City of San Jose) is also the operator. The San Jose Airport Commission is a panel of advisors appointed by the City Council but with no actual authority. The City Council has authority at SJC. This incorrect edit caught my attention because I have served on the San Jose Airport Commission before. (If that's something that interests you, they accept applications from San Jose residents whenever there are openings.) You can verify it yourself at the city's "Airport Commission" page.

Hey everyone! Check out the new domestic destinations. The period from November 2018-October 2019 came out today — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.182.194 ( talk) 18:28, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
Hey everyone, it seems that a user has been engaging in an edit war on this article page (Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport), as well as the Delta Air Lines page regarding the status of SJC as a Delta focus city. The consensus from airline editors is that the airport is not a Delta focus city as of early 2020, and we've addressed this previously on the Delta Air Lines talk page and hidden text. Recently, the aforementioned editor has repeatedly added edits with poor spelling and sourcing, and despite being warned with no penalty, he/she engages in re-adding the deleted edits over and over again. This user seems to have a history of doing such actions to other pages, and has not responded to prior conversations on their user talk page as well. We ask for assistance in this regard to ensure the "no original research policy", as well as Wikipedia admins to escalate this case. Thank you. Theoldkinderhook ( talk) 09:23, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
So at this point there has been no announcement for when the routes I removed will be launched or resumed (or that they have permanently been discontinued). While airline websites seem to be our only source right now for a lot of this information instead of a more reputable news article, I think we need to set some kind of barometer for when they should be removed/re-added instead of just "it shows up as available on a booking engine/airline website for some date in the future."
Granted, this would mean anything not actively flying right now could be potentially removed, but there has to be a middle ground between "needs a news article citation" and "is or isn't available to book on an airline's website". -- Resplendent ( talk) 20:19, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
During the pandemic SJC lost the position it briefly held (in 2018 and 2019) as the second busiest airport in the Bay Area, seeing fewer passengers than OAK in both 2020 and 2021 (and also most years before 2018). In 2021 SJC saw 7,357,441 passengers, OAK saw 8,142,320 passengers, and SFO saw 24,343,627. This means the article should be updated to reflect that SJC is the third busiest airport in the Bay Area, probably with a note that SJC and OAK have jockeyed for the position in recent years. I'll make the update this weekend unless someone has a good reason we should leave as is. If it had historically been the second busiest airport I could see leaving it for now considering the pandemic, but it has not been and OAK saw a more rapid increase in passenger traffic by % growth than either SJC or SFO in 2021. -- Cowboywizard ( talk) 23:35, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
