Jump to postFinally booked DL 435 departing at 21.00, operated on a 330-200.

Who are you flying on the MXP-JFK leg? If you are taking DL, then I'd go with DL again on JFK-SFO. You won't have to change terminals and would have the easiest connection. Plus DL is the only airline that flies a wide body on the route, so there's a chance you could get a 763/764. If not, even the...
