Oakland Airport Name Change Sparks Legal Threat from San Francisco

San Francisco threatens lawsuit over Oakland's proposed airport name change, citing trademark concerns.

Oakland Port Commissioners vote unanimously to rename Oakland International Airport to 'San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport'.
San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu threatens legal action, citing a trademark violation as the airport's new name could confuse travelers.
Public and airline support for the name change is noted, but opposition from San Francisco tourism and hospitality sectors is strong.
Environmental concerns and market demands also play a role in the debate over the airport's expansion and renaming.
Final decision on the name change is scheduled for May 9, following a second vote by Oakland Port Commissioners.
