About flying from SFO

San Francisco International Airport is United Airlines' West Coast hub and one of the most internationally connected airports on the Pacific Coast. SFO offers some of the most extensive Asia-Pacific route networks of any US airport, with direct service to Tokyo, Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai, and Singapore alongside strong European connections.

United's hub at SFO provides a comprehensive domestic network alongside the international routes. Alaska Airlines also has a strong presence at San Francisco with service throughout the West Coast.

For domestic travel from the Bay Area, SFO competes with Oakland (OAK) and San Jose (SJC). Southwest dominates Oakland, often offering lower fares on leisure routes. Travelers in the South Bay may find SJC more convenient for Southwest and Alaska routes.
