About Oakland International Airport
Oakland International Airport (OAK) is the closest major airport to the Tri-Valley, with two terminals — Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 (home to Southwest Airlines). Its compact size makes departures and arrivals faster than at larger airports.
The drive from the Tri-Valley is straightforward via I-580, which makes OAK a popular choice for early-morning flights. We drop off curbside at your terminal and coordinate arrival pickups so your driver is there when you land.
