Hi...I'm looking for Santa Fe, NM flyers for expert advice, please! I will be flying from PHL to Santa Fe (SAF) in a few weeks. Really awful flight times on AA between these two cities (5:30 a.m. or 6 p.m. only-- through DFW).

Trying to decide if it is best to fly directly to SAF or to fly into ABQ (which offers better flight options, but they are more expensive & take I will need to take the shuttle (about $30 each way).
Any advice? Thoughts are appreciated!
