History of Oakland Airport For more than 70 years, Oakland International Airport has been an important force in aviation history and a contributor to the economic well being of the San Francisco Bay Area. According to a 1999 economic impact report, the airport was responsible for infusing $3.9 billion annually into the local economy and is responsible for generating 4,700 induced jobs such as those that provide service for visitor/tourism jobs, such as hotel staff, taxi and charter bus drivers and tour guides. The airport complex and other Oakland International Airport-related aviation businesses employ approximately 10,700 people, of which roughly one-third are in jobs related to cargo. The original airport at North Field was built in 1927 and is still in operation today for air cargo, general aviation and corporate jet activities. Commercial passenger and cargo jet aircraft operate from South Field, which opened in 1962. Today the airport is a thriving business, handling more than 14 million passengers and nearly 670,000 tons (1.48 billion pounds) of air cargo annually.1 1Taken from the Oakland Airport Website	Elegant Lobby Customer Service Desk Comfortable Lobby Seating Area Executive Conference Center Flight Planning Center Beautiful Pilot's Lounge Crew Sleeping Quarters
