DL has made a huge investment in the New York Market. To me they are the obvious choice.... Then again, if you don't fly them, I have a better chance of getting an upgrade!
So we just rented a place right by Penn Station. Think that makes me lean towards EWR/United but let me know if I'm missing something.
Equally easy to get on the subway to LGA or JFK from there as well. And cheaper (particularly to LGA).
I was going to say that EWR is a hellhole (which it is), but it occurs to me that LGA is kind of a hellhole as well (just a different variety). Didn't have such a bad recent experience at JFK, but it probably does take the longest to get to.
I agree that you'll need to research sample fares over several dates and destinations and see if anybody tends to be cheaper.
That would be my guess as well, but is not my experience out of JFK, unfortunately. I think LAX may just have more widebodies.
Can confirm, LAX is WAY easier. I was 6 out 60-something JFK-SFO as a diamond with a RUC applied. Meanwhile, last week, from LAX-
JFK, eight seats cleared at the gate. I think even a high fare/card-carrying gold might have made it.
