Overall Recommendation
For the most efficient and comfortable travel, I recommend flying with American Airlines or Delta Air Lines. The flight duration is significantly shorter compared to ground travel, and by booking during the weekdays, you can secure better pricing and availability. If you prefer comfort over cost, opt for an early morning or late evening flight. For a unique experience, consider the train and bus option if you have the time, as it will allow you to see more of the landscapes along the way.
