Travel to San Jose Airport Cheap method? from Santa Cruz. (emergency!)

Travel to San Jose Airport Cheap method? from Santa Cruz. (emergency!)?
Hello, My friend needs to take a ride to San Jose Airport, but she does not have a car (neither do I). We live in Santa Cruz. It's now 7:40pm, Tuesday, 12/23. Her flight is 6:30, Wednesday, 12/24. So she needs to find a vanpool or some travel method that will take her to the airport? is there any suggestion that you can make? Any good website to use? I Thank you in advance. Somebody told her that San Jose airport opens at 5:00am? That's why she's hesitating from using Highway 17. I am very skeptical of this. I can't seem to find this information on the web. Is it true that she can't spend the night at the airport? prompt reply appreciated.

I sympathize. Have you tried a phone book? Look under airport or transportation....

Here's an option that will take you on public transportation and you'll need to spend overnight at the airport; it took some internet research, but here it goes: Take the Route 17 - Highway Express; the bus leaves the Santa Cruz Metro Center at 9:30 pm and arrives at Diridon Station at 10:15 pm. ($4) http://www.scmtd.com/routes/rt17.html Then take the Caltrain that leaves the San Jose Station at 10:30 pm and get off at the Santa Clara Station at 10:35 pm. Transfer to the VTA bus 10 heading toward the Airport, leaving at 10:48 pm and arriving at 10:59 pm. (Last 2 costs $2.25). This is cheap...but complicated and you'll need to spend the night at the airport.
