Checked 2026-11-04T19:08:25Z. ## How we checked San Jose to San Francisco prices On Nov 4, 2026, Axel priced round trips from SJO to SFO for one adult in economy: 4 Tuesday departures with returns 7 days later, December 2026 to January 2027. Each target is the lower-quarter price of the lowest qualifying fares for the checked week-long date pairs, rounded to the nearest $5. The midpoint is their median; neither is a historical market average. Shorter journeys means ≤1 stop · ≤15h out / ≤15h back; overnight arrivals allowed. Airline prices are the airline’s own fare on Google Flights for the same flights; Axel-exclusive prices need no Membership. Check bags and change rules on your fare. Airports covered: SJO → SFO.
