These include the Department of Homeland Security arrival restrictions requiring American citizens, legal permanent residents, and their immediate families who have been in certain countries at any point in the 14 days before their scheduled arrival to the United States to travel through one of 15 airports upon arrival to the U.S., submit to an enhanced entry screening and self-quarantine for 14 days once they reach their final destination.

The Official Airline Guide (OAG) provides a database of airlines’ flight schedules that is updated periodically. According to the June 15, 2020, OAG schedules, SFO has an average of 62 weekly international flights scheduled for the month of June 2020, and 270 weekly international flights scheduled for the month of July 2020.
