Recommendation
For the most efficient and enjoyable trip, I recommend flying with American Airlines or Delta Airlines, which can get you there the quickest. However, if you're looking for a budget-friendly and scenic option, consider taking the train with Amtrak. If you prefer more flexibility and wish to make stops along the way, driving is also a great choice.
