A court has temporarily blocked Oakland Airport from using its new name, San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport.The court agreed with the City of San Francisco , which sought an injunction against the Port of Oakland following the name change, arguing it could confuse travelers who might associate Oakland 's airport with San Francisco International Airport.

The airport's code, OAK, remained unchanged, and its logo was not altered.The Oakland Board of Port Commissioners had hoped the name change would draw more nonstop flights by highlighting the airport's location on the San Francisco Bay.Tuesday's ruling temporarily prevents Oakland from using the new name.
