Re: oneworld in Central Europe
What about Blue Air? They're not as low cost as Wizz and can place counterweight towards Tarom in OTP. Blue Air does codeshare with Alitalia for example while Wizz doesn't codeshare with anyone. Absolutely! Blue Air no longer wants to be a ULCC. Modern B737Max fleet, move to central airports like C...

Re: Is a 1 hour 27 min. layover at SFO too short for a domestic to transpacific connection?
AFAIK the minimum connecting time at SFO from domestic to international is 60minutes. And yes, if you miss that connection and the reservation is on one ticket, UA will have to rebook you.
