Knowing which airport to use can save you time and money. Here is a quick breakdown for this week's deals.

SFO (San Francisco International)

SFO is the undisputed king for international travel from the Bay Area. All direct Europe, Asia, and Middle East routes depart from SFO this week - Dublin, Amsterdam, Paris, Frankfurt, Munich, Barcelona, Zurich, London, Tokyo, Shanghai, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Hong Kong, and Dubai. For premium cabins, SFO is your only realistic choice for direct international Business and First Class. BART connects directly to SFO's international terminal, making it one of the easiest major airports to reach without a car.

OAK (Oakland International)

Oakland shines for domestic short-haul deals - particularly Frontier's ultra-low fares to Las Vegas. This week's OAK to Las Vegas deal at $65 round-trip is a standout. East Bay and North Bay residents save significant time avoiding the Bay Bridge or BART journey to SFO. OAK has fewer international options but consistently undercuts SFO on domestic routes served by Frontier and Southwest.

SJC (San Jose International)

San Jose is the go-to for Silicon Valley residents. This week's SJC to Los Angeles deal on Frontier at $19 round-trip is a jaw-dropper. SJC is compact, easy to navigate, and parking is significantly cheaper than SFO. For South Bay travelers, SJC saves 45 to 90 minutes in commute time compared to driving to SFO. Watch for Frontier and Southwest sales out of SJC for West Coast short-hauls.
