Flying from NYC to LAX
« on: August 15, 2019, 04:56:19 PM »
I'm flying from Manhattan to LAX First/Business class and I am trying to figure out which airline to fly. Newark is more convenient to but if the premier class seating of anthor airline flying out of JFK is better I would be willing to travel. Any and all insights are appreciated!

United has Polaris on some flights every day.
Always praying for delayed baggage.

AA flies the only first class between NYC and LAX.

Jetblue mint is also well regarded, especially if you get a suite.

By far the most comfortable option is AA First Class or Delta Business Class on a 767 or A333 with 1-2-1 seating.

Is really worth the extra travel for a little better seat for a few hours, it not like your getting CX F.

I'm guessing different people have different answers but for the average guy?

Newark isn't really that much closer to Manhattan

United Polaris is better than DL.
