For the eastbound flight, I'm wondering who would pay to fly F on this 737 redeye route when, at that time of night, you can drive an extra 30 minutes to SFO if you live south of SJC, and less if you live north of it, and then have a flatbed seat and full D1 service? I would think that for most people paying to sit up front that the extra drive time at a time of day with no traffic would be worth it.

If this were a daytime flight, when the drive could easily be over an hour and you don't need to sleep, then this might be a good premium class alternative to SFO and worth giving up D1 for.
