-San Diego International Airport is the primary commercial airport for San Diego County.  No airline maintains a hub there, and Southwest Airlines is the dominant carrier.  The vast majority of scheduled flights are to points within North America; currently only Hawaiian Airlines and Aloha Airlines provide transoceanic service; both to Hawaii.  The airport has only a single runway, 9/27, and normal operations call for arrivals and departures on runway 27.
+San Diego International Airport is the primary commercial airport for San Diego County.  No airline maintains a hub there, and Southwest Airlines is the dominant carrier.  The vast majority of scheduled flights are to points within North America; currently only Aloha Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines and United Airlines provide transoceanic service; all to Hawaii.  The airport has only a single runway, 9/27, and normal operations call for arrivals and departures on runway 27.
 The airport is notable for its approach to runway 27, which due to the airport's close proximity to Downtown San Diego, allows spotters a view of many aircraft flying level to the roofs of the downtown skyscrapers.
