San Francisco Vows Legal Action Against Oakland Airport Name Change

The city of San Francisco is threatening legal action if Metropolitan Oakland International Airport (OAK) proceeds with its proposed name change to include "San Francisco Bay," as the dispute between SFO and OAK intensifies. San Francisco officials argue that the name change would cause confusion among passengers, while OAK contends that the current name leads to underperforming airline routes. The Port of Oakland is set to consider the name change on April 11, with Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, and Volaris expressing support, while SFO and San Francisco officials oppose it, citing potential customer confusion and disservice.
