It is owned by the [[Port of Oakland]]<ref name=FAA /><ref>{{cite gnis|id=1653772|name=Metropolitan Oakland International Airport|access-date=May 3, 2009}}</ref> and has domestic passenger flights to cities throughout the United States and international flights to [[Mexico]] and the [[Azores]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sfgate.com/travel/article/Norwegian-Air-abandons-Oakland-International-14905500.php|title=Norwegian Air abandons Oakland International Airport|last1=McGinnis|first1=Chris|last2=SFGATE|date=2019-12-17|website=SFGate|access-date=2019-12-18}}</ref> in addition to cargo flights to [[China]] and [[Japan]]. The airport covers {{convert|2600|acre|abbr=on}}.<ref name=FAA /> ==History== ===Early years=== The city of Oakland looked into the construction of an airport starting in 1925. In 1927 the announcement of the Dole prize for a flight from California to Hawaii provided the incentive to purchase 680 acres (275&nbsp;ha) in April 1927 for the airport.<ref>{{cite book |title=Oakland Aviation|first1=Ronald T.|last1=Reuther|first2=William T.|last2=Larkins|page=17}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Oakland Airport|url=http://www.aiaa.org/Participate/Uploads/02-0694%20HAS%20Oakland%20brochur.pdf|access-date=November 3, 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061201222858/http://www.aiaa.org/Participate/Uploads/02-0694%20HAS%20Oakland%20brochur.pdf|archive-date=December 1, 2006|df=mdy-all}}</ref> The 7,020-foot-long (2&nbsp;140&nbsp;m) runway was the longest in the world at the time, and was built in just 21 days to meet the [[Dole Air Race|Dole race]] start. The airport was dedicated by [[Charles Lindbergh]] on September 17. In its early days, because of its long runway enabling safe takeoff rolls for fuel-heavy aircraft, Oakland was the departing point of several historic flights, including [[Charles Kingsford Smith]]'s historic US-Australia flight in 1928, and [[Amelia Earhart]]'s final flight in 1937. Earhart departed from this airport when she made her final, ill-fated voyage, intending to return there after circumnavigating the globe.<ref name="OAKhistory">{{cite web|title=A History of Aviation Excellence and Importance to the Community|url=http://www.oaklandairport.com/media_backgrounder.shtml|publisher=Port of Oakland|access-date=July 16, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120622034917/http://www.oaklandairport.com/media_backgrounder.shtml|archive-date=June 22, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> Boeing Air Transport (a predecessor of [[United Airlines]]) began scheduled flights to Oakland in December 1927. It was joined by [[Trans World Airlines]] (TWA) in 1932. In 1929 Boeing opened the [[Boeing School of Aeronautics]] on the field, which expanded rapidly in 1939 as part of the [[Civilian Pilot Training Program]]. Thousands of pilots and mechanics were trained before the facility was changed into the United Air Lines training center in 1945.<ref>{{cite book|title=Aerospace Engineering Education During The First Century of Flight|author1=Barnes Warnock McCormick |author2=Conrad F.

It was transformed into an airlift base for military flights to the Pacific islands, ordering all scheduled service to move to [[San Francisco International Airport]]. After the war, airlines slowly returned to Oakland; [[Western Airlines]] began flights in 1946, and was followed by [[American Airlines]], TWA, United, [[Transocean Air Lines]] and [[Pacific Southwest Airlines|Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA)]]. Oakland became a larger center for non-scheduled and supplemental air carriers: The four largest such companies were based and headquartered in Oakland: [[Transocean Air Lines]], [[World Airways]], [[Trans International Airlines]] and [[Saturn Airways]]. Oakland became one of the largest overhaul and maintenance operations in the country when Aircraft Engine and Maintenance Company (AEMCO) processed thousands of aircraft. The airport's first [[Jet Age]] [[airport terminal|terminal]] (now Terminal 1) was designed by [[John Carl Warnecke|John Carl Warnecke & Associates]] and opened in 1962, part of a $20 million expansion on bay fill that included the 10,000-foot (3048&nbsp;m) runway 11/29 (now 12/30).<ref>{{cite web |title=Oakland International Airport, Terminal 1|url=http://www.docomomo-noca.org/building-detail.php?id=53|work=Northern California Chapter, Documentation and Conservation of Buildings|access-date=July 16, 2012}} {{dead link|date=September 2019|fix-attempted=yes}}</ref> The May 1963 OAG showed 15 airline flights arriving in Oakland each day, including nine from San Francisco; in June 1963, TWA flew Oakland's first scheduled jet, a [[Convair 880]], to Chicago.<ref name="OAKhistory" /> American Airlines scheduled service from Oakland to Phoenix then into Dallas using the [[Boeing 720]] aircraft. Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) provided several flights within California from OAK using Boeing 727 and [[DC-9]] aircraft. United Airlines introduced non-stop service to Chicago, and on the San Francisco-Oakland-Los Angeles route using the [[Boeing 727]]. During the [[Vietnam War]], [[World Airways]] shuttled thousands of military passengers through Oakland to their bases in Southeast Asia, and an international arrivals facility was built, allowing the airport to handle international flights for the first time. World Airways had broken ground on the World Airways Maintenance Center at Oakland International Airport. The maintenance hangar could store four [[Boeing 747]]s. It opened in May 1973.<ref name="OAKhistory" /> During its operation, World Airways contract maintenance services for 14 airlines in the facility. By 1988, World Airways vacated the Oakland maintenance base and moved its headquarters to Washington Dulles. That same year, [[United Airlines]] assumed the lease on the maintenance base. After the war Oakland's traffic slumped, but [[Airline Deregulation Act|airline deregulation]] prompted several low-fare carriers to begin flights. This increase prompted the airport to build a $16.3 million second terminal, the [[Lionel Wilson (politician)|Lionel J. Wilson]] Terminal 2, with seven gates for [[Pacific Southwest Airlines|PSA]] and [[Air California|AirCal]] service.<ref name="OAKhistory" /> In the mid-1980s, [[People Express Airlines]] provided scheduled [[Boeing 747]] transcontinental flights from OAK to Newark. [[San Francisco and Oakland Helicopter Airlines|SFO Helicopter Airlines]] served scheduled passenger flights between SFO and the Oakland Convention Center from OAK for many years until 1985. In 1987, [[British Airways]] and [[Air France]] Concorde visited Oakland to provide supersonic two-hour flights to the Pacific halfway to Hawaii and back to Oakland. Additionally a special around-the-world trip covering 38,215 miles over a three-week tour in March 1989. [[FedEx Express]] opened a [[air cargo|cargo base]] at OAK in 1988, which is now one of the busiest air freight terminals in the United States. In the 1990s, [[Southwest Airlines]] opened a crew base in Oakland, and expanded its flights to become the airport's dominant passenger carrier. The airport has international arrival facilities, including [[U.S. Customs and Border Protection]] officials. The 1990s saw a rise of low-cost carriers serving Oakland, [[Morris Air]] (later became [[Southwest Airlines]]) and [[MarkAir]] to name a few, provided several domestic destinations from OAK. During the 1990s, tour operator SunTrips contracted [[Aerocancun]] and [[Leisure Air]] to provide scheduled charter flights from OAK to sun destinations during the early 1990s. [[TAESA]] and [[Mexicana Airlines]] also flew between Oakland and cities in Mexico for many years. In the past [[Tower Air]] and [[Corsairfly]] flew [[Paris–Orly Airport|Orly Airport]] to OAK to [[Papeete]], [[Tahiti]], [[Martinair]] flew to [[Amsterdam Schiphol Airport|Schiphol Airport]] and [[CityBird]] flew to [[Brussels Airport]] in Brussels.<ref name="OAKhistory" /> ===2000s=== [[File:N598HA Boeing 767-300 Hawaiian Airlines (3).jpg|thumb|A [[Hawaiian Airlines]] [[Boeing 767-300]] at Terminal 1]] [[United Airlines]] vacated its {{convert|300000|sqft|-4|abbr=on}} Oakland Maintenance Center in May 2003 and transferred work to its base across the bay at San Francisco International Airport (SFO). Oakland International Airport began a $300 million expansion and renovation project in 2004, including adding five gates in Terminal 2. The new concourse partially opened in fall 2006, was fully opened by spring 2007, and a new baggage claim in Terminal 2 opened in summer 2006. The former Terminal 2 baggage claim has been replaced by a renovated and expanded security screening area. As part of this program, airport roadways, curbsides and parking lots were also renovated by the end of 2008.<ref name="OAKhistory" /> In 2008 Oakland saw a series of cutbacks due to high fuel costs and airline bankruptcies, more than other Bay Area airports. In just a few days, Oakland's numerous non-stops to [[Hawaii]] were eliminated following the liquidation of [[ATA Airlines]] and [[Aloha Airlines]], although [[Hawaiian Airlines]] started a daily flight to [[Honolulu]] a month later. [[Skybus Airlines]] stopped flying to Columbus, OH when it ended operations on April 5. American Airlines and [[Continental Airlines]] both dropped [[Oakland]] on September 3, [[United Airlines]] ended service to [[Los Angeles]] on November 2, and [[Grupo TACA|TACA]] ended service to [[San Salvador]] on September 1. ===2010s=== [[File:Oaklandairportinside.jpg|thumb|Inside Terminal 1 at Oakland International Airport]] [[File:Oakland Airport Terminal 1.jpg|thumb|Terminal 1 and ground transportation dropoff loop]] Following the years of the [[Great Recession]], during which a few airlines were either liquidated ([[ATA Airlines]] and [[Aloha Airlines]]), or consolidated business to [[San Francisco International Airport]], OAK started a gradual recovery, which has continued through 2017. In 2009 [[Allegiant Air]] moved operations from [[San Francisco International Airport]], before designating OAK as a focus city. After the bankruptcies of ATA and Aloha Airlines, [[Alaska Airlines]] and [[Hawaiian Airlines]] replaced their nonstop services to Hawaii. In the same year, [[Volaris]] began service to OAK as their first destination in the San Francisco Bay Area and held a commercial agreement with [[Southwest Airlines]], until its merger with [[AirTran Airways]] in 2011. Malaysia-based [[AirAsia X]] honored its new partners, the [[Oakland Raiders]] of the [[National Football League|National Football League (NFL)]]. [[AirAsia X]] had one of their planes full of its executives and crew members "touch down" at OAK in acknowledgment of the to-be announced sponsorship. AirAsia executives had new optimism that service between the U.S. and the airline's main base in [[Kuala Lumpur]], could possibly happen earlier than originally expected, but has yet to come to fruition as of 2020. In 2009 OAK had the highest on-time arrival percentage among the 40 busiest North American airports.<ref>{{cite press release|title=Oakland International Airport: Press Releases|url=http://www.flyoakland.com/press_releases_detail.aspx?ID=578&t=p|publisher=Port of Oakland|date=January 12, 2010|access-date=April 19, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110120082516/http://flyoakland.com///press_releases_detail.aspx?ID=578&t=p|archive-date=January 20, 2011|df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Oakland Best Among Top 40 North American Airports|url=http://emailer.emailroi.com/r.pl?vWHzpuUnhHLFybhb_0146f07791285864|work=Flightstats.com|date=January 6, 2010|access-date=April 19, 2012}}</ref> In 2011 [[Spirit Airlines]] returned to OAK after several years of absence, eventually flying a combined total of seven year-round and seasonal routes by the summer of 2017. Oakland International Airport also celebrated its 85th Anniversary in 2011, commemorating the first transpacific crossing by air from OAK to Hawaii, which took place on June 29, 1927, in ''The Bird of Paradise'', flown by Hegenberger and Maitland. In 2012 [[United Airlines]] pulled out of OAK, consolidating operations at [[San Francisco International Airport]], its Bay Area hub. [[TUI Airlines Netherlands|Arkefly]] (which later re-branded as TUI Airlines Netherlands) chose OAK as a San Francisco Bay Area gateway, flying twice-weekly to [[Amsterdam Airport Schiphol|Amsterdam]], via a stop at [[Los Angeles International Airport]]. Arkefly provided 18 weeks of scheduled service in the summer of 2012. The airline followed with a similar schedule during the summer of in 2013, before discontinuing service at OAK. In 2013 [[FedEx Express]] opened a $30 million upgrade of its hub facility at OAK, including additions to accommodate the airline's new [[Boeing 777 Freighter]] fleet. In 2014, [[Norwegian Air Shuttle]] announced its first two year-round flights to [[Stockholm Arlanda Airport|Stockholm]] and [[Oslo Airport, Gardermoen|Oslo]] airport, using [[Boeing 787 Dreamliner#787-8|Boeing 787-8]] aircraft seating 291 passengers operated by [[Norwegian Long Haul]]. The flights were the first-ever nonstop services offered from the two Scandinavian capitals to the San Francisco Bay Area, providing several connections throughout Europe. The Oslo flight was later changed to a seasonal schedule. A long-proposed extension of the [[Bay Area Rapid Transit|BART]] system to the airport opened on November 22, 2014, allowing passengers to board BART people mover trains and transport from the [[Oakland Coliseum Station|BART Coliseum station]] platform to the entrance of all terminals.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.airportimprovement.com/article/oakland-int-l-gains-new-public-transportation-link|title=Oakland Int'l Gains New Public Transportation Link|publisher=Oakland Airport}}</ref> The new system consists of a mostly elevated structure, running the length of Hegenberger Road.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.oaklandairport.com/pdf/BARTtoOAKFAQ.pdf |title=Archived copy |access-date=2015-01-23 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150124012508/http://www.oaklandairport.com/pdf/BARTtoOAKFAQ.pdf |archive-date=January 24, 2015 |df=mdy-all }}</ref> In May 2015 Oakland International Airport's Moving Modern program construction commenced a $100 million renovation of the Terminal 1 complex.

[[British Airways]] responded with their own service to London, with both airlines providing service to London's [[Gatwick Airport]]. [[American Airlines]] also returned and re-branded, following a merger with [[US Airways]]; the latter previously having a short-term presence at OAK, following a separate merger with [[America West Airlines]] during the previous decade. [[Southwest Airlines]] inaugurated nonstop flights from Oakland to Mexico for the airline's first international nonstop flights from OAK. The additional routes also gave the airline a combined total of 30 year-round and seasonal flights at the airport as of early 2017. In 2017 [[Norwegian Air Shuttle]] announced nonstop flights connecting Oakland with [[Copenhagen Airport|Copenhagen]] on a seasonal basis from March 28, and Oakland with Barcelona from June 7 to operate year-round. [[Level (airline)|Level]], a new carrier owned by [[International Airlines Group|IAG]], responded with their own Barcelona service, started flights initially operated by IAG partner [[Iberia (airline)|Iberia]] on June 2, with both airlines providing service to [[Barcelona–El Prat Airport|Barcelona El Prat Airport]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/business-39301239|title=BA owner IAG launches new long-haul airline Level|work=BBC News|date=March 17, 2017}}</ref> In the months following, Norwegian announced in May the introduction of nonstop flights between Oakland and [[Leonardo da Vinci International Airport|Rome Fiumicino]] started on February 6, 2018,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/flights/todayinthesky/2017/05/31/norwegian-air-fly-italy-three-us-cities/102338008/|title=Norwegian Air to fly to Italy from three U.S. cities; $189 one-way fares|website=[[USA Today]]|access-date=August 12, 2018}}</ref> and in July the introduction of nonstop flights between Oakland and [[Charles de Gaulle Airport|Paris Charles de Gaulle]] began on April 10, 2018.<ref>{{cite web|author=Liu Jim|url=http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/273671/norwegian-expands-paris-us-flights-in-2018/|title=Norwegian expands Paris – US flights in 2018|publisher=UBM (UK) Ltd.|website=Routesonline|date=July 5, 2017|access-date=July 7, 2017}}</ref> === Recent years === Between mid-2018 through early 2020, OAK had both lost and was losing domestic and international nonstop routes; the indefinite grounding of the [[Boeing 737 MAX]] by both Southwest and American Airlines, the "restructuring" of schedules by airlines, and a lack of demand all contribute to this.

[[Bay Area Rapid Transit|Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART)]] serves the airport via [[Oakland International Airport station]]. The station is served by the [[Coliseum–Oakland International Airport line]], also known as BART to OAK Airport, which is an [[automated guideway transit]] (AGT) system that connects [[Oakland Coliseum Station|Coliseum station]] to the airport. The AGT vehicles depart from the airport and Coliseum station every five minutes during daily peak hours, and are designed to transport travelers to and from the airport in about eight minutes with an on-time performance of more than 99 percent. The Oakland Airport Connector Project is largely attributable to the work of former BART director and port commissioner [[Carole Ward Allen]] who was responsible for securing local, state, and federal funding for the project.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2009/news20091210|title=BART Board awards Oakland Airport Connector contract in historic vote - bart.gov|website=www.bart.gov|access-date=August 12, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.enr.com/articles/19227-bart-board-approves-new-oakland-airport-connector-funding-plan|title=BART Board Approves New Oakland Airport Connector Funding Plan|access-date=August 12, 2018}}</ref> Ward Allen advocated for its approval before several transportation authorities endorsed the project, which created between 2,500 and 5,200 direct and indirect jobs.<ref name="bay area 70 million">{{cite web|url=https://bayarea.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/01/could-70-million-for-the-oakland-airport-connector-be-better-spent/|title=Could $70 Million for the Oakland Airport Connector Be Better Spent?|first=Armand|last=Emamdjomeh|access-date=August 12, 2018|date=February 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2010/news20100916b|title=BART Board reaffirms contract authorization for Oakland Airport Connector - bart.gov|website=www.bart.gov|access-date=August 12, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mercurynews.com/2010/10/20/bart-breaks-ground-on-rail-extension-to-oakland-airport/|title=BART breaks ground on rail extension to Oakland airport|date=October 20, 2010|access-date=August 12, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180725183835/https://www.mercurynews.com/2010/10/20/bart-breaks-ground-on-rail-extension-to-oakland-airport/|archive-date=July 25, 2018|url-status=live}}</ref> Some critics of the project argued that the money would be better spent on supporting existing local transit agencies, which had financial issues at the time.<ref name="bay area 70 million" /> There are three [[AC Transit]] routes that serve Oakland Airport, one route runs during the daytime and early evenings, one route runs at all times, and the last route runs overnights as a part of the Bay Area's [[All Nighter (bus service)|All Nighter]] [[Night service (public transport)|bus network]]: * Route '''21''' provides daytime and early evening service from the airport to the [[Dimond District, Oakland, California|Dimond District]] via [[Bay Farm Island, Alameda, California|Bay Farm Island]], [[Alameda, California|Alameda]], and [[Fruitvale, Oakland, California|Fruitvale]], making a limited connection with the [[San Francisco Bay Ferry#Alameda Harbor Bay Ferry|Alameda Harbor Bay Ferry]] at Bay Farm Island, and a full-time connection with [[Bay Area Rapid Transit|BART]] at [[Fruitvale (BART station)|Fruitvale station]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Route 21|url=http://www.actransit.org/wp-content/uploads/21_timetable.pdf|website=AC Transit|access-date=23 December 2017}}</ref> * Route '''73''' provides 24/7 service from the airport to the [[Eastmont Transit Center]] via Hegenberger Road and 73rd Avenue, connecting with [[Amtrak|Amtrak's]] ''[[Capitol Corridor]]'' service and [[Bay Area Rapid Transit|BART]] at [[Oakland Coliseum station]].
