SJC Parking
I will be driving to the airport Monday, Dec 27. I called several of the private lots, who told me they are full. When I checked at the SJC airport website, it had a big message saying "This year everyone who parks at the Airport is guaranteed a space, either in the Long-term lot on Martin Avenue or Short-term parking directly across from the terminals."
Does anyone know how this works? How do they implement the guarantee? If the LT lot is full, do you get a voucher to pay LT rates in the ST lot? What if both are full?

How satisfied are folks with the non-airport long term parking? I'm fed up over the long roundabout drive to the lot, and even longer drive back on the shuttle bus.
Any favorites on parking services with a relatively quick shuttle ride? Pricing is less a concern because I'm usually doing 24-hour trips.

I think it depends where you are coming from. Park Shuttle and Fly is just off I-880 at Coleman at the south end of the airport and is a quick trip to the terminals. I will say that I have had to wait for the shuttle bus a little too long on a couple of occasions, but generally it's OK.
DeLa Cruz is at the north end of the airport just off 101. I haven't used them but I know most people who have are quite satisfied.

1125 Coleman Avenue - Outdoor only
Mostly I don't drive/park at the airport
There's one at 1125 Coleman Avenue, so from 880, it after P/S/F and before the right to the long-term lot. I think it may be Park and Travel.
Parking was easier than P/S/F, paying was easier, transfer to flight was easier, transfer back was problematic (relating to a particular employee who ignored the dispatcher calls). I forget the price; I imagine it's comparable or I wouldn't have tried it at all.
I plan to try them again.
