Local know-how

When Oakland is the better choice

Oakland is worth the extra miles when a fare or a nonstop beats what Sacramento offers. From West Sacramento it is I-80 almost all the way, and the Carquinez Bridge rather than the Bay Bridge.

We usually allow three and a half hours before a domestic departure from OAK, a little less than for SFO because the Oakland approach avoids San Francisco altogether.

If you would rather take the train, the Capitol Corridor runs from Sacramento Valley Station — just across the river — to Oakland Coliseum, where BART connects to the airport.
