The airport was built in 1927 when crews worked around the clock for 23 days to prepare what was then the world's largest runway, a 7,020-foot strip that served as takeoff point for the first flight across the 2,400 miles from the mainland to Hawaii. Oakland is setting the example to the cities of the country. The Airport has experienced dramatic increases in its passenger traffic, airline operations, parking lot activity and rental car concessions over the last ten years. These increases has placed stresses on existing facilities and challenged the ability of the airport to meet the high level of service traditionally provided to the air passenger.
