Jetsuitex Launches Flight from Oakland to Los Angeles 10/17/17, 10'07 AM JetSuiteX launches flight from Oakland to Los Angeles 10/17/17, 10'07 AM Business New airline service ITEM 6(a) between Oakland and Los Angeles promises faster travel (Dan Honda/Bay Area News Group) A JetSuite jet sits at Buchanan Field Airport in Concord, Calif., on Wednesday, March 29, 2017. The airline will soon launch a direct flight from Oakland International Airport to Hollywood Burbank Airport. By ANNIE SCIACCA | [email protected] | Bay Area News Group PUBLISHED: October 13, 2017 at 6:39 am | UPDATED: October 13, 2017 at 2:46 pm http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/10/13/new-airline-service-between-oakland-and-los-angeles-promises-faster-travel/ Page 1 of 4 JetSuiteX launches flight from Oakland to Los Angeles 10/17/17, 10'07 AM OAKLAND — A growing airline that promises a way for passengers to ditch long security lines and crowds at baggage claim is offering a new flight between Oakland International Airport and the Hollywood Burbank Airport. JetSuiteX — a division of private jet operator JetSuite — is launching its “private for public” service in mid-November at the airports. Travelers will be able to access the flights at private terminals in each airport, allowing them to skip the normal security lines and instead arrive at the airport about 20 minutes before departure. For more travel coverage from the Bay Area and beyond follow us on Flipboard. “JetSuiteX was created to be the ultimate travel hack for time- starved travelers, especially those going between LA and the San Francisco areas, who are tired of waiting in line after line, just to wait some more,” said Alex Wilcox, founder and CEO of JetSuiteX, in a news release. “Our customers get to arrive refreshed when they skip things like spending more time in an airport than in air, getting herded through lines or feeling the discomfort of boarding a plane with 100 other people.” The flights will depart three times a day on every day except for Saturday. For prices that start at $129 each way, travelers can bring up to two pieces of luggage totaling 50 pounds, have “business class-style leg room,” and free cocktails and snacks, according to JetSuiteX. The service will also add to the Oakland airport’s growing list of nonstop destinations. “(The airport) is in the midst of an extended period of passenger traffic growth, made possible in large part by a significant increase in nonstop destinations served,” said airport director Bryant Francis in a statement. “Introducing new charter-style flight options at Oakland dovetails with our goal of offering more choices to the growing Bay Area customer base, many of whom live closest to (the airport). We hope JetSuiteX’s new local service proves to be both popular and successful.” http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/10/13/new-airline-service-between-oakland-and-los-angeles-promises-faster-travel/ Page 2 of 4 JetSuiteX launches flight from Oakland to Los Angeles 10/17/17, 10'07 AM Have a comment about this? Join the conversation on the East Bay Times Facebook page. JetSuiteX drew attention last year when it debuted the first commercial travel service — to Burbank and Las Vegas — that Concord’s Buchanan Field Airport had seen in decades. For travelers near the airport who aren’t squeamish about flying on a smaller, 30-seat jet, the service could deliver passengers to Los Angeles or Las Vegas quicker by allowing them through a shorter security process at private terminals instead of the typical TSA lines. JetSuite also launched a non-stop flight between San Jose and Burbank earlier this year, jetting between private terminals at Mineta San Jose International Airport and the Hollywood Burbank Airport twice a day except for Saturdays. Up-to-date schedules can be found at JetSuiteX.com. SPONSORED CONTENT Homeowners Born Before 1985 Are Getting a Huge Reward By MorningFinance If you own a home, you should read this.

  • Inventory of Existing Conditions
    Buchanan Field Airport Master Planning Program Field A. INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Buchanan A > Inventory of Existing Conditions INTRODUCTION. Buchanan Field Airport (CCR) is the major general aviation reliever airport serving Contra Costa County and multiple communities located in the northeastern portion of the greater San Francisco Bay Area (see Figure A1). The Airport has been a catalyst for business growth in the region and has served as an anchor for the local employment base, as well as meeting the aviation transportation needs. Situated in an unincorporated portion of Contra Costa County, directly adjacent to the thriving urban heartbeat of the City of Concord, Buchanan Field Airport is a vital component of the transportation infrastructure serving the region for tourism and business. Buchanan Field Airport is well equipped to serve regional demand related to general aviation and business aviation needs. The Airport has a reputation as being an excellent aviation facility that offers a safe and efficient operational environment. The Bay Area continues to experience significant increases in business activity, commercial and residential growth, and economic development. Because of this, Buchanan Field Airport is also being presented with increasing operational and facility demands. Many of the areas surrounding the Airport, with many high quality homes and environmental amenities, have experienced significant residential development, resulting in homeowner concerns about the effect that the Airport may have on their lifestyle. Some of these homes and facilities are located within a two to three mile radius of the Airport. Thus, the Airport may influence the social, economic, and physical environments of the area in which it operates.

  • Complaint Summary 2015
    Charles M. Schulz - © P N Sonoma County Airport T S 2015 Complaint Summary www.sonomacountyairport.org 2015 Complaint Summary Charles M. Schulz - Sonoma County Airport (STS) The Runway Safety Improvement Project maintained Sonoma County Airport’s compliance with FAA standards and further enhanced operational safety in 2015. The Airport recorded a total of 229 complaints in 2015, which represents a 33% reduction from 2014, which had a total of 343 complaints. Of these 229 complaints, 200, or 87%, were Airport –related (as defined at the bottom of page 3 of this report). Having weathered temporary shifts in air traffic during 2014 due to the 6-month closure of Runway 14- 32 (during which period many residents lodged complaints for the first time), the Airport enjoyed fewer complaints in 2015, especially early in the year. The Airport recorded 152 complaints from first and second time callers in 2015, compared to 193 in 2014. New callers still inquired if there were changes to the flight pattern, perhaps indicating lingering effects from the previous year’s closure. First and second time callers accounted for 66% of overall complaints in 2015. The noise complaints were generated from all over Sonoma County, at various times of the day and night, primarily involving airline, corporate, and general aviation aircraft. A breakdown of Airport-related complaints shows that concerns about noise and low-flying craft account for the largest percentage, with a combined 73% of the total. Related issues, such as overflights and maneuvering, accounted for 27%. Non- Airport-related complaints accounted for 13% of the total.
