  • Jet Blue has three routes out of SMF.  New York, Long Beach and seasonal flights to Boston.    The airline just announced it is cancelling service from Oakland, San Jose and Sacramento to Long Beach.  The airline is  leaving Oakland its first location in Northern California.   The airline has been struggling on the west coast and is focusing on long haul routes..  The SMF/LGB route will end late April.      Oakland has seen the exodus of several International carriers  Norwegian Air, British Airways and Level.  With Jet Blue exiting Oakland, the airport will not have non stop flights to the New York Area airports.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Could Oakland Internationals loss be Sacramento Airports gain?

Moved to the Big Tomata in the nineties from San Francisco. No Suburbs for me with its single colored houses and lawns and the excitement of pulling out my trash can once a week. I'm a CityFella , a part time New Yorker. I'm happiest in the Center City where people the streets and people are alive. I'm still waiting to buy a 34th floor condo somewhere downtown/Midtown with a nightclub. "Hurry I'm old" My politics are somewhere in the middle with a needle that constantly moves. I'm too liberal to be a Republican and too conservative to be a Democrat. Everything interests me . I've come to love Sacratomato, Its a nice town in cheap sensible shoes .
