Eight new markets from SFO added on Airbus. Additional Airbus frequencies from SFO to AUS, PSP, PVR and SJD. The narrative on this page is that AS is turning SFO into another spoke from SEA but the evidence shows the complete opposite.
All those routes were added (and flown) before the cuts. The additional SFO-PVR frequency isn't daily, neither is SFO-SJD.

I'm only seeing one SFO-AUS pair in the summer. The additional AUS flight doesn't hit until the fall, well after these flights disappear. SFO-PSP is 2x daily in the fall, same as it is today.
