I am planning to drop by the SFO SKL on Wednesday, sometime in the late morning -- they have always had a wide assortment of alcoholic beverages at the time of day in the past. I understand from an earlier post that they forgot to renew their liquor license but now that they are aware of their mistake, I wonder how long it takes to renew the license? According to
this page, it can take up to 90 days to get a
new license.

If I knew the phone number of the SKL, I would give them a call and ask.
According to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
FAQ:
All licenses may be renewed by paying the required renewal fee before the license expires.
Following the expiration of a license, the licensee may legally operate for an additional 60 days during which time the license may be renewed by paying the renewal fee and a 50% penalty. If the renewal fee and penalty fee has not been paid within 60 days of the expiration of a license, the license is canceled and the licensee may not exercise any privileges of the license. The licensee does have and additional 30 days in which to reactivate the license by paying the renewal fee and a 100% penalty. If the penalty and renewal fee are not paid by the end of the 30th day following cancellation, the license is revoked. (Section 24048)
Given that this situation has been going on for several weeks, I wonder how some of the other passengers feel about this. Is the SKL handing out chits for use in the nearby RCC?
