Overview

• On June 27 the Port of Oakland unveiled “Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport” as its second rebranding attempt since April 2024.
• The Port Board is slated to vote on the name at a July 10 meeting with final approval expected by July 24.
• The airport will retain its OAK code and the renaming is projected to cost about $150,000 for new signage and digital updates.
• Officials say placing “Oakland” first highlights the city’s local identity and improves geographic clarity for travelers.
• San Francisco’s City Attorney filed a trademark lawsuit and a federal magistrate blocked the first name change in November 2024, with the dispute still unresolved.
