"Two major commercial airlines are returning to a small, public airport in Southern California, including one that gives Bay Area travelers another option for visiting the state's "best of the best" theme park from San Francisco International Airport. After a 10-year hiatus, United Airlines is reviving service at McClellan-Palomar Airport in Carlsbad, a single-runway airfield owned by San Diego County. The airport, which has primarily served private flights and public charters such as JSX and Advanced Air, is slated to welcome United Airlines again beginning March 30."
""With the addition of Carlsbad, United now serves more cities in California than any other airline," Patrick Quayle, United's senior vice president of global network planning and alliances, told SFGATE in an email. "... I hope these new commercial routes will continue to inspire the next generation as they think of all the places United can take them with a direct connection to a hub like San Francisco.""
McClellan-Palomar Airport in Carlsbad is welcoming major commercial service again as United Airlines returns after a 10-year hiatus. United will operate nonstop, twice-daily flights to San Francisco International Airport and Denver International Airport beginning March 30. The single-runway, San Diego County–owned airfield has mainly hosted private flights and public charters such as JSX and Advanced Air. American Airlines recently began service to Phoenix, making United the second major carrier to add routes at the airport. With Carlsbad included, United will serve 18 California cities, the most of any airline in the state. The airport sits about four miles from Legoland.
