... I'm fairly confident that there are flights from Mexico into Oakland and San Jose and those airports are smaller and less busy.

Plaidmoon2,
Of course there are direct or connecting flights from PVR to OAK or SJC. However, the only nonstop flights involving PVR to those 3 destinations go from PVR to SFO (see my recent post on this subject in the Tweets thread for details). There is a one-stop 3 hour 42 minute flight (+ 2 hours time zone differential), US621 PVR OAK 0811 1153, but the use of nonstop flights instead is a protection against being sighted in route.

Clarify something for me, please. Is the airport being discussed for the arrival of the eliminated teams the one that is actually in Oakland that was used for the final three teams in TAR 2?

The point here is that taking a direct flight to Oakland International Airport (used both in AR2 and AR11) from Puerto Vallarta does not make as much sense as the nonstop one to San Francisco, which is where teams were actually spotted. There is the possibility that teams came into SFO and then went to OAK to fly somewhere else, but that is infinitesimally low in probability.

i hope SF is just a stop over, cause i'm definitely not available to go searching today or tomorrow :cmas4
