Parking is easy, 5 bucks for one hour, 10 bucks for up to 2 hours and 20 for 4 to 5 hours. Skip the line was worth the extra money for me. Lots of vendors on board to help u spend ur money. Overall, a good trip.

We had a fantastic time exploring the USS Midway! Even without following the full audio tour, there was so much to see and learn just by walking around. The 15-minute movie is a great way to kick things off—it sets the tone and brings the ship’s history to life. The museum was very ADA-friendly, which made a huge difference for our visit. My dad has limited mobility on his left side, but we had no trouble navigating the elevators or getting below deck. While we didn’t tackle the steeper stairs, walking around was easy and enjoyable. Don't miss the flight deck—it can be a little chilly up there, but the views of the harbor are absolutely worth it. There are plenty of bathrooms, and the cafe even serves alcohol (though only until about 3 PM on Sundays, so plan accordingly if you're hoping for a beer with your view!) Highly recommend for families, history buffs, or anyone wanting a memorable experience in San Diego.
Excellent displays and info about life on a carrier.

Fantastic museum for the whole family. Took us 4 hrs and 10k steps. Highly recommend. The staff are very knowledgeable and many served on aircraft carriers. Getting tickets ahead of time was convenient to skip the purchase line.
