I don't think you can fly into Yosemite, you have to drive. (not sure if thats what you're asking) Even late spring, they might need you to have chains for your tires, may want to double check that before you head out. I hear Yosemite is nicer with snow on it, but if you go in the summer, hiking Half Dome is pretty popular. If you do hard core, extreme sports, Yosemite is a mecca for some of that too.
The drive, I find 17-mile-drive in Carmel, and Big Sur to be the nicest. I've done some of the HWY-1 drive, its not that great outside of what I listed above IMO. (Some of you said 101, I think you mean HWY-1? 101 takes you threw the cities, SF-SJ-LA, all inland.)
