New gate numbering makes finding your way easier than ever

In October 2019, SFO launched a new airport-wide gate numbering system to make navigating easier than ever. The new system is alphanumeric, in which gates will be assigned both a letter and a number. The letter corresponds to the concourse, which SFO calls Boarding Areas, while the number refers to the specific gate within that Boarding Area.
