SFO grew over the years into a top 10 domestic airport

KSFO opened for business during the 1930s on the western side of the San Francisco peninsula near San Bruno. United Airlines was one of the original and still most frequent carriers at the airport. Pan Am began flying five weekly flights to Honolulu from SFO soon after the end of World War II. Like all major airports, SFO has been expanded, modernized, and improved many times in order to accommodate the latest airline equipment and routes. SFO also starred in the 1968 Warner Brothers drama “Bullitt” starring Steve McQueen and 1973’s Malpaso/Warner Brothers film “Magnum Force” starring Clint Eastwood as “Dirty Harry.” Airlines from Aer Lingus to XL Airways France flew into and out of SFO more than 450,000 times in 2016.
