I was awakened last night by aircraft noise, what goes on at Oakland International Airport at night?
Like most commercial airports in the US, Oakland International Airport operates 24 hours per day 365 days per year. There is no nighttime curfew at Oakland International Airport. However, the Port of Oakland, in coordination with the FAA, airport users and community representatives, has developed preferred nighttime aircraft procedures that help mitigate aircraft noise over residential areas. Wind and weather permitting, these procedures try to keep aircrafts over the bay and away from residential areas as much as possible.
