Promotion adds $66 value to the convenience of 10 daily nonstop flights

OAKLAND, CALIF. (APRIL 1, 2014)— Oakland International Airport (OAK) is now offering travelers departing on one of ten peak daily nonstop flights to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) with up to three days of free parking – a $66 value.

“The largest percentage of the Bay Area population lives closest to OAK, and Seattle is one of the most popular destinations for Bay Area residents,” said Port of Oakland Director of Aviation Deborah Ale Flint. “We’re pleased to offer local travelers another reason to make their next trip to Seattle from OAK – their most convenient airport.”

Now through June 30, 2014, travelers departing on one of OAK’s ten (peak) daily, non-stop flights to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), operated by Alaska Airlines or Southwest Airlines, are eligible to receive up to three (3) days of free parking in OAK’s Daily Lot–a $66 value. The Daily Lot is OAK’s most convenient long-term parking option, located a short walk to either terminal.

To take advantage of these promotions, travelers must visit iflyoak.com/parkfree to register and download a printable coupon. When entering the Daily Lot prior to departure from OAK, customers intending to take advantage of this promotion should be sure to take a ticket rather than using a credit/debit card to enter the lot.

Complete promotion details are available online during registration.
