San Jose airports. The Oakland airport is considerably further, about 25 miles across the
Bay. We recommend buying your tickets as soon as you can, to ensure the best price
and availability. These are our favorite websites for shopping for airfare:
high-70s, lows should be in the mid-50s, and skies should be clear and sunny.
