LOL at tacking on “Las Vegas,” A’s management might actually be dumb enough to fall for that.Search location by ZIP code ZIP. At SFO, it’s harder to screw up getting where you’re going.Ĥ. Not every train that passes through the Coliseum station goes across the bay - catch the wrong train and you’ll end up in Richmond. Getting on that airport-to-Coliseum train requires exiting the airport, crossing arrivals street traffic out to the parking lot, and then up to the platform. You have to take a separate airport-to-Coliseum train (and pay a separate fare, last time I checked it was $6) before you can even get on BART. OAK is not closer to San Francisco on BART than SFO is: If they’re going to do this, seems like Oakland San Francisco Bay International Airport would be a good choice – closely mirrors BWI’s naming scheme.ģ. I don’t extensively research these things, but don’t most airfare search results offer you nearby airports?Ģ. This kinda seems like a solution in search of a problem. Although I’m not sure that these days promoting a connection to San Francisco is a positive thing – still, that city has nowhere to go but up!ġ. Oakland airport thinks they need a re-naming since passengers in the West may realize where they are geographically but in most of the country and most of the world people do not know that they’re part of the San Francisco Bay Area. It’s still FAT (‘Fresno Air Terminal’), one of the world’s worst airport codes alongside Sioux City, Iowa Fukuoka, Japan Kochi, India and Pensacola, Florida. They were unable to get their airport code changed, however. It used to be BAL for Baltimore and the story of how they changed involves geopolitical intrigue since BWI belonged to Papua New Guinea.įresno Yosemite Airport markets itself as a gateway to Yosemite National Park, so that visitors consider it rather than San Francisco or San Jose (which are more likely for many to have non-stop flights).
Baltimore’s BWI airport makes clear that it is part of the Washington, DC region – Baltimore Washington International.
