The first thing to observe is that this flight went to tremendous effort
to avoid U.S. territory, or airspace over territorial waters. Even if it
was weather related at th ehighr altitudes of 35,000 to 40,000 feet, the
air current were not an issue over Greenland, and Canada, all of which
were carefully avoided on the flight.
Snowden may or may not have been on the flight (note the "live
conference with him in Moscow this morning" that suggests that this
could have been a "ferret flight" to test the U.S. response).
The flight path take by this flight burned more fuel, and the "winds" do
not appear to be at the altitudes this plane as flying at.
The flights merely 2 days prior took the normal path, and it seems the
common path on prior flights is to hug the Coast of Canada and the
United States for a goodly mount of the flight time, then to sing out
over the Bahamas and descend into Havana by way of "The Gauntlet" of
anti-aircraft artillery and surface to air missiles they have on the
North Coast.
