Port of Oakland considering airport name change
The Port of Oakland, saying most people in the country don't know where the city is, has been exploring a name change for the Oakland International Airport.

It’s hard for me to imagine that most travelers don’t know that Oakland is right across San Francisco Bay, but apparently it is an issue.
There are obviously some parallels. Baltimore-Washington. Fresno-Yosemite. Bozeman Yellowstone. But there have been some crazy ones, like when Stockton Airport (about a good 90 miles from San Francisco) was considering a change with San Francisco in the name.
