“I’m proud that San Francisco Airport is being recognized for the world-class experience we are providing for both residents and visitors,” said San Francisco Mayor London Breed. “We know that tourism is central to our recovery, and making sure people feel welcomed from the moment they land in San Francisco is an essential part of that experience. This recognition is a testament to everyone who has made SFO a success, including the workers who are there every day helping airport visitors get to their destinations.”
“We are truly honored to be ranked the top U.S. airport by the Wall Street Journal,” said Airport Director Ivar C.
