San Francisco to Hawaii via San Jose in pictures
Last month I tried something new: Instead of flying through tried-and-true San Francisco International (SFO) on my way to Hawaii, I flew through Mineta San Jose (SJC) instead. And it was a breeze. As the date for my Monday morning Alaska Airlines 8:50 a.m. departure from SJC to Lihue, Kauai approached, I worried about how long it was going to take to get from my house in San Francisco to the airport during the morning rush hour. How early should I leave to get there on time? Should I drive my car and park at a long term lot? Take Uber or Lyft? Have my partner drop me off?
