The San José, California Norman Y. Mineta International Airport / SJC no longer has an Admirals Club, as AA has de-emphasized this airport.

As of 9 Jan 2013 there is a new lounge near the Federal Inspection across from gate A-15 (third level), Club@SJC, which sells day passes and is a Priority Club and Diners Club lounge (free to ANA Business pax to TYO) ; it offers courtesy WiFi, work carrels with PCs, shower facilities, beverages and snacks etc. Hours 0500 - 2200. Link.

I can only speak for AA. We have 7 & 8. 6 is for overflow paid for per use. I know we are going somewhere towards WN but I have not heard where yet

My experience for morning flights has been that the DFW fight goes out of 8, LAX Eagle) is 7 and ORD is 6. It seems that later in the day, both DFW and ORD can share 8.

Two weeks ago we returned on 1035 DFW-SJC (late, as usual). Walked out and the view was not familiar.

We had arrived at gate 5?!?!?!

Cheers.

Received tentative information for us (AA) at SJC.

A two gate shift to 9 and 10 effective July 12 is what we have been told.

Not a big difference. But SJC costs remain high.

While I would never discuss any inside information from my own airline, I was told by an extremely reliable source that US Air pays the City of San Jose $400,000 per month for operational costs.

Not cheap.
