How is LGA as a hub? I haven't flown there much at all and think this would be an important aspect.
"New" AA also flies into DCA 3x/ day... although I always seem to get stuck going through PHL which is a terrible airport IMHO.
So going to their sites, I see AA/US has 9 flights/day from MHT (Charlotte, DC and Phila), Delta has 10 flights (Atlanta, LGA and DTW).
I think I'll head off and try Delta for a while... Thanks.
DL uses two terminals at LGA: D, where they did a lot of improvements a couple years ago and the half of C closest to D, which was US space until recently. The retail stores and F&B outlets generally look fresh and appealing for airport facilities. The lounges are similarly new and not as crowded as they were. IIRC C and D are connected airside, so you don't need to go through TSA security again unless you decide to walk land side to terminal B (about ten minutes but there's some construction so the path takes a bit of a detour through the edge of a parking lot) to visit the new AmEx Centurion lounge, which is wonderful.
Without any hesitation, I'd take DL at LGA over US at PHL for connections.
