San Jose International Airport security wait times

~15 min through security at SJC, from our airport directory. Early mornings and holiday weekends run longer.

Budget that on top of check-in or bag drop and the walk to your gate. For your exact leave-home time, enter your flight above: the plan uses the live wait when there is one.

Arrive 90–120 minutes domestic with PreCheck. Either checkpoint works for a boarding pass after you are airside. Peaks hit mid-morning; use MyTSA and CLEAR+PreCheck when they are open.
