Southwest Airlines serves BUR–OAK through its hub network, usually with one connection. The nonstop flight time is about 1h 21m.
Fare classes available: Basic, Choice / Choice Preferred, Choice Extra. Southwest does not charge change fees on any fare; you pay the fare difference if the new flight is more expensive.
The lowest one-way fare we have on record for this route is $208 on Southwest, and $611 round-trip. Fares like that usually show up on off-peak days and for travel booked a few weeks out; an agent can check whether a similar fare is available for your dates.
Because Delta Air Lines treats Oakland as a hub, this pairing tends to have frequent departures throughout the day. American Airlines and Southwest Airlines also compete here, which keeps fares in check.
At 325 miles, this is a short hop: gate to gate in about 1h 21m, which makes a same-day round trip realistic and puts driving and rail in competition with the fare. Early-morning departures are usually the cheapest and least likely to be delayed.
