Oakland International Airport KOAK / OAK

The Bay Area's most flexible business-aviation airport, 30 minutes from San Francisco's Financial District via the Bay Bridge, with two FBOs on the North Field, 24-hour CBP and weather more reliable than SFO. Preferred for heavy jets and late-night arrivals; parking is plentiful.
