Sacramento International Airport SMFKSMF

Sacramento International Airport (SMF) is the main commercial airport for the Sacramento region, but it is not a major U.S. airline or alliance hub. It works best as an origin-and-destination airport with broad domestic coverage, Hawaii service, and a limited but useful North America international network to Canada and Mexico. Terminal A is used by Air Canada, American, Delta and United. Terminal B is used by Aeromexico, Alaska, Frontier, JetBlue, Southwest and Volaris. For downtown Sacramento, a rideshare or taxi is usually the simplest choice, roughly 15-25 minutes in normal traffic via I-5; SacRT Route 142 and Yolobus routes 42A/42B are the public-transit options, with Route 142 serving both terminals and downtown on a scheduled service. Connections are straightforward but not fully airside between terminals: Terminal A and Terminal B are separate buildings, and a terminal change requires walking through the garage or using the airport shuttle, then clearing TSA again. SMF has Escape Lounges in both terminals, but no major airline flagship lounge or alliance-branded lounge complex.
