Sacramento Intl
A Journey Through Time
1967 — 2011
The airport opened on 21 October 1967 as Sacramento Metropolitan Airport.
The east runway opened in 1987, two years after a second air cargo facility.
Terminal A and a consolidated rental car facility opened in 1998. With the new terminal, the airport took the name Sacramento International Airport.
International flights finally arrived in 2002, when Mexicana started nonstop service to Guadalajara, four years after the airport adopted its international name.
The new Terminal B opened on 6 October 2011. It was the largest airport terminal in the United States to achieve LEED Silver status.
