San Diego builds satellite communications payloads and unmanned systems — Viasat and General Atomics are both here — and the biotech cluster on the Torrey Pines mesa is the largest on the US West Coast.

Cargo leaving San Diego for orbit consolidates at San Diego International (SAN). From there it routes to Vandenberg SLC-4E and Cape Canaveral SLC-40. Charterspace lists the residual capacity on flights that are already leaving, so what is open from these sites changes as providers release it.

Nothing on this page is a guaranteed service. Residual capacity is sporadic by nature — most of the time there is none open from any given site, and a leg listed today may be gone tomorrow. Payloads bound for orbit are subject to export control, hazardous-materials rules and the launch provider's own acceptance criteria, all of which are settled before anything is booked. If nothing here matches what you need to ship, tell us and we will look at the routes that are not listed.
