Until they add at least some of those, they will struggle to be more than an also-ran at SJC. (Even tho I agree that they are significantly larger than they once were)
With the exception of SEA and an annual trip to Hawaii, I don't fly anywhere that there is a non-stop from SJC. So, I'm mostly looking for adequate connection opportunities and not having to drive up to SFO.
