Overview
- The Port of Oakland Commissioners voted unanimously on July 24 to adopt “Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport” as the facility’s official name.
- San Francisco’s City Attorney filed a trademark lawsuit in April 2024 and has signaled plans to continue legal challenges over the new designation.
- The airport’s three-letter code “OAK” and its “I FLY OAK” logo will remain unchanged despite the renaming.
- Port officials argue the updated name will raise regional visibility, support new non-stop routes to Mexico and underpin ongoing retail and dining renovations.
- A federal judge’s November 2024 injunction against the original San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport name remains in effect.
