Well, when Alaska starts flying transcons from OAK I'll be there, but for right now Alaska really only works from SFO if you want to head east. Just in the last two months I've had four flights from the east coast arrive after midnight that normally come in at 9-10pm, all due to flights being metered into SFO, and probably half my morning flights, of a good dozen, have gone out late from SFO due to weather. I'm so used to it now it doesn't bother me, and I never plan on flying home with a BART connection in late evening as I expect my flights will be late and I won't make the last train. It does seem like it's happening more than in years past, but SFO has always had weather delays. Certainly more flights than 20 years back.
