The Port of Oakland announced the airport will be renamed to "Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport," changing from last year's longer title, which sparked legal disputes with San Francisco. The name change aims to enhance Oakland's recognition in the Bay Area, as San Francisco filed a lawsuit claiming the previous name infringed on its trademark. In response, Port Director Craig Simon expressed the intent to adopt a new name that emphasizes Oakland's identity while awaiting a legal resolution, leading to the proposed name that places "Oakland" first, highlighting its significance in the region.
The Port of Oakland announced it will rename the airport now as "Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport," moving from last year's lengthy name to attract more passengers.
In a letter to San Francisco's airport director, Port of Oakland's Craig Simon emphasized that the new name represents their commitment to Oakland's identity and location.
