If there’s a flight with lie-flat seats to Newark then I recommend this option since you can just take Amtrak from the EWR Airport station. If you go with the SFO-JFK option, you have a choice between Delta, American, United, and Jetblue.
I'm not familiar with UA's product on this route, but is it really better than AA's new lie flat F and J seats on the SFO-JFK route? Also, not sure why the connection from EWR to NY Penn Station is any easier than the connection from JFK to NY Penn Station. I personally prefer JFK over EWR.
