Hi
ECKOA6 - This is a great (and convenient) MR (especially in F), but keep in mind if the return flight (1024) is late, you'll almost certainly miss your connection back to PHX and have a forced overnight in PHL. Flight 258 works perfectly as you can work a full day and still make it to the airport in time to catch the flight.
If you do mis-connect - you can take the train into town and get a cheesesteak, but any status upgrade you got to F would be lost and you'd likely have a middle seat in the back of the bus for the PHL-PHX leg.
There is no 333 sitting around in SJU - you fly down on the same flight (1071) that flies back out as 1024. They could also let you overnight in SJU (at their expense) if they know far enough in advance that you'll misconnect.
It's one of the best flights in the network to get a guaranteed mis-connect back to PHX...
