by Heather Cassell
It might be a great time to fly to Europe. Summer vacation is right around the corner.
There’s another reason, at least for gallivanting residents of the San Francisco Bay Area, Oakland International Airport just announced free parking to travelers taking off across the Atlantic Ocean.
Starting May 29 through August 15, travelers flying round-trip nonstop to Barcelona, Copenhagen, London, Oslo, Stockholm and to Azores will get five days of free airport parking in the daily lot.
Azores is an archipelago in the mid-Atlantic which is an autonomous region of Portugal.
The offer makes that European trip a little bit more enticing. Even travelers hopping around Europe can take advantage of this parking deal, just as long as they return to Oakland and they book the airlines and routes currently being offered, according to media reports.
Free parking is all about promoting Oakland International Airport’s new European routes to Azores aboard Azores Airlines, London’s second route via London-Gatwick flying British Airways, Barcelona’s new airline Level Airlines, and Norwegian Air flights that go to Barcelona, Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm and London-Gatwick as well.
