Delta cushions their flight times so that they can report better "on time percentage" numbers. Other airlines do this as well, I just know for a fact Delta does this.

My conjecture is that Air traffic control or weather condition.

Northbound headwinds today. Just flew from Seattle to SF took longer than usual

How was the weather? IFR spacing adds time.

It was clear y'all - it's California - harshest weather in CA is light rain -_-

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
