About The Airport
Fly The East Bay Way. It is The Best Way to San Francisco Bay.
San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport is a primary gateway to the San Francisco Bay Area and the main airport for the greater East Bay, where most of the region's 7.8 million residents live.

OAK is operated by the Port of Oakland, which also oversees the Oakland seaport (the primary cargo gateway for Northern California) and 20 miles of East Bay waterfront that has been undergoing major development. Together with its business partners, the Port supports more than 84,000 jobs in the region with more than a $130 billion economic impact.
