About This Airport

The code SJC belongs to Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport (ICAO: KSJC), the commercial airport closest to the Silicon Valley tech campuses, five kilometres north of downtown San José. Around twelve million passengers passed through in 2024, flying mostly on Southwest and Alaska, with transpacific routes adding long-haul reach. Cargo runs to roughly 40,000 tonnes a year, weighted towards high-value electronics and semiconductors; FedEx, UPS and DHL maintain stations on site, while the bulk of the valley's heavier export flows still clears through San Francisco (SFO) or Oakland (OAK), each under an hour away. The urban site comes with a quirk – approach paths still cap building heights in downtown San José. The airport is named after Norman Mineta, a San José native and former US Transportation Secretary.
