cpm goes up somewhat w/o the 500-mile minimums on SFO-BUR (and obviously worse SFO-SMF)

Thanks. Thinking of using this for 'regular' travel instead of MR.

Is 33 min layover from United Express to mainline UA doable at SFO?

depending on where your UAX flight departs from it could be very tight. all departures SFO to SMF are from terminal 1, which requires a shuttle transfer from the mainline UA gates and really should have at least a 45 minute connection to feel safe about it. that being said, those flights also rarely operate on time, so take that into consideration too.

for BUR i'm not sure if the flights depart mostly from terminal 1 or not.

I thought UA had already consolidated all its operations into T3?

i haven't been to SFO in a couple of months, but the last time i was there (mid-June) we definitely arrived in T1 on the E120 hop from SMF to SFO.

checking today, it appears you may be right, it looks like all SMF-SFO flights are scheduled to arrive at T3. now that's a change i like!
