What happened to the 4 PM SFO-BOS?
FWIW, I see a 5:15pm LAX-EWR and a 5:30pm SFO-EWR in the summer/fall schedule, though at this time that should probably be viewed as a placeholder and subject to change.
Agreed - been following that thread as well. Having done a number of SFO-BOS/BOS-SFO as well as the LAX-SFO-EWR / EWR-SFO/LAX segments over these past few years, my biggest challenge is the LAX-SFO / SFO-LAX segments. UA has gotten rid of the 6 am LAX-SFO so making the early SFO-BOS isn't really do able and the delays on the 6 pm SFO-BOS means that I would get the 739s that fly LAX-BOS instead of the 752s and 772s.
Additionally, given the late afternoon crapfest that is EWR's standard ground stop hell, I'm not a fan of the A to C dash and/or the run to/from C130x that UAX regionals force you into to make a EWR-LAX late afternoon/early evening flight.
