    Maybe.

    Have you been arrested for sleeping at the airport? Were you waiting for a flight to takeoff, or were you just hanging out?

    Unless you have lawful business in the airport, an arrest is possible. You generally do not have a right to camp out there.

    And,as a note, the SF Airport is not actually IN San Francisco.

    If you're a vagrant sleeping there in the unsecured areas, I can suspect that you will be told by the airport police to move along. If you fail to do so, yes you can and WILL be arrested for trespass. If you are a passenger who just happens to be stuck there on a long layover or cancelled flight or something, you'll probably have an easier time on the secure side of the checkpoints.

    Oh, it's you again.

    You not be arrested for being homeless. You would be arrested for whatever crime you are committing, such as trespassing, etc...
