Maybe better for TLV based pax not having to deal with customs at JFK (DL) or EWR (UA) and save flying time, depending on TLV-LHR synchronization with the LHR-SJC

(Don't mistake with SJO - that's very far away and not much to do with Silicon Valley  )

SJO has had incredible international growth the past few years.

Very true about SJO but SJC is a major destination for TLV based pax in "Hi-tech" companies.

Tickets are bookable - found $802 rt in May. Same travel time as LX, LH or UA to SFO but to get to SJC is certainly better esp. in late afternoon traffic.

Oops meant to write SJC, but certainly the same is true with SJO too to an extent. SJC used to be the sleepy small airport as a secondary to SFO, now it's got service to Beijing, Tokyo and soon London.
