The managers of Tri-Valley innovation met to honor rhythm companies during its annual prices #Gamechangers this month at the Roundhouse Bishop Ranch in San Ramon.
The leadership group has honored a company from each of the five Tri-Valley communities and recognized Southwest Airlines with its visionary prize based on Oakland International Airport. It is the busiest airline that flies far from Oakland, which is its busiest California airport.
The director of the Southwest farm, Andrew Watterson, received the Alex Mehran Jr. prize, CEO of the owner of Bishop Ranch, Sunset Development Co., it was a two-seater trip to Watterson, who has family in the bay and was able to connect for lunch before the evening ceremony on May 8.
He said Southwest arrived in 1989 in Oakland in adolescence and has since become an adult.
The company has 3,000 employees at Oakland airport and operates 190 flights to 29 destinations on advanced days. The company celebrated its 36th year in Oakland on May 15. In its remarks, the COO noted that Southwest changes with market demand and will come next year that passengers will be able to book their headquarters in advance instead of digitally reserve a place in the airport queue.
He also said they explored partnerships with other airlines (the South West has never joined the alliances with which most airlines are collapsed). These would allow smoother connections for international flights – currently the airline only exploits its own international flights to Mexico and the Caribbean.

He said he listened, other adjustments are coming.
