The flights represent the first Contour flights from both cities, and Crescent City’s first commercial operation since August 2017. Oakland International Airport welcomed Contour Airlines on 11th April 2018 with daily non-stop service to Crescent City’s Del Norte County Regional Airport (CEC). The new service is advantageous not only for residents in Oakland and the Greater Bay Area, but also for passengers coming from Santa Barbara who wish to connect to the seven European destinations now available from Oakland on Norwegian Air. We are thrilled to have Contour Airlines join us at SBA.” In Santa Barbara, Airport Director Hazel Johns said: “Among local travellers, Las Vegas ranks high as a desirable direct flight destination as does Oakland, which is an excellent addition to SBA’s current service to the Bay Area. Our city is extremely accessible, so it makes the perfect home base to explore San Francisco, Napa Valley and even Yosemite.” This flight will give visitors from Santa Barbara a chance to explore Oakland as well as the greater Bay Area, and will also make Santa Barbara accessible to international travellers who use OAK as the gateway to the Bay Area.
Mark Everton, Visit Oakland CEO said: “We are thrilled for the launch of the new Contour Airlines flight between Santa Barbara and Oakland International Airport (OAK). The ability to connect two of California’s most popular destinations was an irresistible opportunity to further grow our West Coast network.” Matt Chaifetz, CEO of Contour said: “We have been amazed by the response to Contour’s premium product and low fares in Oakland and are so pleased to be able to offer this new service to Bay Area residents. We’re thrilled to now offer this non-stop service to Santa Barbara, and believe that the convenience and economical fares will result in more business and leisure travellers on both ends.” Increased passenger traffic and new destinations at OAK- both regional and long-haul- continue to affirm the confidence of our passengers that Oakland is the preferred Bay Area airport. Francis said: “ Contour Airlines’ arrival in Oakland earlier this year has been representative of a very positive trend here.
