Wait. Am I missing something? Isn't that ~90m of car time assuming mild traffic?

I don't think they were flying SFO to SJC, rather they considered rebooking to SJC to avoid the delays at SFO

SJC is so much better. Honestly it's almost worth going to SJC and taking Caltrain despite the extra time and cost just due to how much nicer it is

When SFO is operating on only one of its two runways (common due to low clouds, now due to runway construction) then 3h+ delays are par for the course for flights in the evening.
