I transited recently as a pax from alaska's gate to united gates and there was a whole terminal that wasn't even being used. I think it used to be the international terminal. As I walked by it, I thought maybe this is where Virgin gates are going. Now I can see someone at SWA figured out a better use. Having flown in and out of SFO for many years I do see a better ATC flow in and out, maybe its because the frequencies in the last years for UAL were reduced. I also think the ILS PRM's should help especially when the fog rolls in (haven't done one yet). I think its good since I would rather we all have more choices in the bay area.
