San Jose airport to get makeover
Nerd Bird flyers, rejoice: San Jose is going to update its 42-year-old airport, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
The city is selling $767 million in bonds to pay for the makeover. But passengers will foot part of the bill in higher parking, concession and rental car fees.
Airport officials say passengers will see little direct impact — except for the 100 percent increase in the rental car surcharge, to $10.
This is a massive project, of course, so the changes will take several years to pull off.
American Airlines’ Austin-San Jose flight is nicknamed the Nerd Bird for all the laptop-pounding techies in the seats.
