Treat this as a domestic TSA leftover, not SJU
Official PRPA pages do not print an arrive-by clock. Live passenger flights on the 18 Sep 2026 board are U.S. mainland leftover with USDA on arrival, not a passport hall.
One hall after a single TSA — and no live tower
Official PRPA pages do not print a gate map. Wikipedia leftover 2012 boarding bridges. AirNav leftover ATCT CLSD INDEFLY.
A café leftover, not a food court
Official PRPA pages do not print a concession map, hours, or a bottle tariff. Expect a small café in the one hall.

Hit security before 7am or after 10am
Average waits 15-25 min; peaks 5-9am and mid-afternoon push 25-35+ min—PreCheck saves 15 min.
Clear security then roam freely airside
All concourses A-B-C-D connect post-security via walkways—no re-clear needed for most connections.
Skip chains for Metropol in Terminal C
Sit-down Puerto Rican/Cuban plates (mofongo, rice dishes) beat Domino’s/Popeyes for real local flavor.
PSE · A one-hall leftover on Puerto Rico's south coast with $8–$9 unpublished parking, two live airline names on the 18 Sep 2026 board, and no lounge pin — but 74.5% on-time is still bottom-quartile and you need a rental car because official pages do not print a curb bus.
SJU · Efficient walkable Caribbean hub with genuine local food and easy fixed taxis, but basic lounges (except Escape) and peak security/weather delays keep it from premium tier.
