Recommendation
Considering efficiency, comfort, and cost, I recommend opting for air travel, as it is the quickest method and offers competitive pricing. Be sure to check for both direct flights and those with layovers to find the best deal. If you prefer a scenic journey and have time, driving along I-5 provides lovely views of California and Oregon landscapes.
